Why the Eververse hate? (Destiny)

Well that first sentence got me to understand it. I still don't care, but I understand it. Maybe that's why I don't play Destiny 2 very often.

I also must admit that it doesn't affect me personally-- I am not tempted to make real purchases. The only things I've ever "bought" from Eververse, either in D1 or D2, are either the freebies like Illuminated Engrams, or stuff you can buy with the leftover virtual currencies-- silver dust and bright dust.

But I object to being routed through the out-of-game "store" to redeem in-game, in-universe items, and I object to being made to feel bad about interacting with Claudia Black. That's just unfair.

I also think it's setting up perverse incentives for Bungie to spend time building the equivalent of horse armor because it's more profitable to do so.
