On content and why we're hurting for it. (Destiny)

by Hoovaloov, Sunday, March 22, 2015, 02:46 (3782 days ago) @ Cody Miller

You do not even have to give up things like weapon and player progression, that my critics seem to love so much.

I've read many, many DBO discussions on this topic, but yet I feel compelled to ask: in your opinion, what's the difference between player investment and player progression? How can you say one is ok but the other ruins the game? In my head, it seems that player progression is synonymous with player investment, no?

Just a clarification of terms, please. :)

        If ODST isn't a DLC for him, this isn't as well - ZackDark, 2015-03-24, 13:22
