You seem to be missing something (Destiny)

by Raflection, Tuesday, June 23, 2015, 20:54 (3536 days ago) @ Cody Miller

Destiny was labeled as a fps/RPG hybrid. RPG being the important part here.

RPG games almost ALWAYS exclusively sell cosmetic items via micro transactions of some kind because players have the sense of "this is my guardian, I want them to look pretty and feel personal to me" which is EXACTLY what bungie has said multiple times before release and during its current life span.
