Destiny Is Now Selling Level Boosters (Destiny)

Not really. A level 25 boost does nothing but save you some time (at the cost of precious XP for your subclasses), and Bungie gave everybody one for free.

The question is of course why you'd want and actually ENABLE people to skip parts of your game? Wouldn't it sound ridiculous if with Halo Bungie had said "We gave you 10 levels, but if you pay more money you only have to play 5 of them?"

You're not skipping things, though. Leveling up to 25 isn't going to unlock all of the story missions, or make things considerably easier if you still have crappy gear and weapons.

They're not letting you skip five levels of a Halo game, they're unlocking them all from the get-go so you don't have to necessarily play them in order. It won't be any faster to complete the whole game on Legendary.

Ultimately, what difference does it make other than helping someone participate in group activities?
A significant bummer for me when I started on Xbox was that I was locked out of pretty much every single activity because my level was too low. This removes that issue, but doesn't do much more for players.
