Last night I was on the playstation store and I noticed that a bunch of games, like far cry 4, ac unity, dragon age, gta 5, were all still selling for their original retail price.
All of these games were released within a month or two of destiny. Now, destiny is selling the original game, both expansions, and the taken King for $79.99.
What does that say about the original game they released last year? The game they sold for the same price as the games I listed above. Are those other games really so superior to destiny that they could retain their value so much better? That's basically what bungie is saying. Day one players paid $70 for a game that now isn't worth nearly what other games, released at roughly the same time, are worth.
Day one players paid $70 for the game, $40 for the two expansions and now need to pay $40 more for the taken King.
So how does that break down in taken king? If it's $40 alone, then both the original game and the two expansions are only worth $40 now? I'm pretty sure both expansions are still selling for $20 each. So, does that mean the original game is worth $0?
I really don't understand bungie's reasoning here and it's messed up that we paid $70 for a game that is now essentially worth nothing. Like I said earlier, how are those other games still worth their full price, while day one destiny, is worth nothing?
This bothering any other day one players?

Or maybe just the PS store has crappy prices? Farcry 4 is like $20 on Amazon.

This is exactly right! I wish people would actually think about it for a minute and realize that when they spend 60 dollars on other games they get a game that is actually a game. But with Destiny they get shafted.

Destiny has $0 trade in value in GameStop. Look it up. Lol. Garbage=worthless.

Edited by Shiloh Ivy: 7/23/2015 1:27:20 AMWarning: This whole comment is opinionated. Vanilla Destiny was worth $40. TDB was worth $10. HoW was worth about $15, I think the $20 price tag was fair. So overall I think Destiny is worth $70. I paid $100. Not knocking Destiny though, because right now I'm being charged $500 for information I'll never need for my actual degree. (Thank god for scholarships) Bottom line, my wallet has been -blam!- worse.

Bump!!! The writing is in plain sight. Bungievision gutted the story and replaced it with nothing. They've ignored the lack of story and focused on the broken PvP. Which they failed to fix. Now they are gutting some of the most popular weapons in the game. It seems to me that they aren't trying to salvage this game, they're ignoring the most glaring problems in the game and just adding window dressing. This game's value is in a death spiral. And that is the direct result of Bungievision and Asstivision's development plan. This issue was created by them, nurtured by them, and ultimately will pay the price for their choices. It is a shame, this game HAD a grand vision. BV and AV could have stayed with that plan and they would have had a record setting title. As it stands, Destiny is going down as one of the biggest gaming let down in recent memory.
