Last year's interview with Jason Jones is a revelation. (Destiny)

And Jones' point was that SOME people DIDN'T play over and over again - but he wanted them to.


I kind of resent that then. I feel like it should be up to me to decide whether to forgo playing a new game (or doing something else) in order to replay an old game.


Wow. So you're suggesting that the investment system is MAKING YOU DO SOMETHING YOU DON'T WANT TO DO?

It is up to you. It's an investment system - it's not a gun to your head, or someone holding your dog hostage.

It absolutely is making me do something I don't want to do (in Destiny's case). I had a choice to between grinding and playing the raid, or not grinding and not playing the raid. I did not want to grind, but wanted to play the raid. So I had to grind. Ultimately I'm happy with that since the raid was so cool, but it would have been better had the raid just opened up at level 20, with no real downside.
