Agreeing with uberfoop (Destiny)

Why sadly? Why can't SOME of the decisions made be made for marketing reasons - why can't we acknowledge the reality of making and selling games, and stop pretending that the only thing that SHOULD matter is that the player is happy?

Because exactly zero extra people will buy the game who otherwise aren't because of this bonus. It has zero effect on marketing and sales. All the benefit goes to gamestop. None to Bungie. In fact, it is detrimental to Bungie because of the effect on the game, and on their reputation.

They could have not done this, sold exactly as many copies, and have had a better game.

Fucking sellouts. I think we can finally say it. Sad day isn't it Matt?
