Anyone with an Alexa-enabled device can get it for nothing.

If you don't like the idea of a $90 Ghost-shaped speaker, don't buy it. :)

Arstechnica says it's lame (reply)

When Ars' Sam Machkovech tried the skill out, he wasn't impressed. For example, many query responses just cycle through several pre-canned messages, and the only gear management command that he discovered was, "Alexa, ask Ghost to equip my best weapon." It's entirely a gimmick, but would you have expected anything better?

Nope. You have to do it just once, then let the hivemind go. (reply)

Just go the Reddit way (reply)

I found out that you have to know how to use the guns.* I was hoping they just made you win.
Step 1: Equip MIDA.
Step 2: Wave at enemy.
Step 3: Watch them fall over dead.
Step 4: Win.

*This is a huge bug. Bungie, please fix.

Maybe if we throw enough of a tantrum they will change it.

Meh. That seems like a lot more work...

Yes, I would ask for it for Christmas if that was the case (reply)

And if I had internets.

If this was an echo device in a Ghost shell, I'd be sold. (reply)

Alexa, let's get sweaty (reply)

- Turns down the lights and raises the room temperature with Smart Home Controls
- Orders some Rockstar and Pop Tarts for Uber Eats to deliver.
- Loads up D2, selects your double pulse striker Titan, equips the MIDA/Uriels/Rocket loadout and drops you into the new Ranked playlist.
- Orders you a hemorrhoid donut, some Tylenol and a nice absorbent microfiber cloth to soak up your tears because you just got your rear handed to you over and over by teens that actually have usable thumbs.

Well, you should get the picture at least. Big Bro seems neat.

Complete with some trailers... (reply)

That guy looks like if Jimmy Kimmel and Patton Oswalt had a kid.

I have never wanted Big Brother more. (reply)

Unless Microsoft comes up with a realish Cortana.

Holy ass it's $90.

Turns out I don't want it.

Plus it requires an Alexa device.

For $90 it ought to BE an Alexa device-- that's basically what an Echo costs, and there is at least one device that is cheaper (Dot).
