The Luke Smith thing

First off, I'm gonna state that I'm a hard core Day 1 gamer. I had a preorder on the game a year before release and doubled down on the season pass on launch day. AND I already have a preorder on The Taken King. I'm a clan leader and I've dumped close to 700+ hours on the game. I've supported and promoted both Bungie AND Destiny as an employee of a retail shop and have defended both at every point and turn. But after seeing that Luke Smith interview, however, I do believe the time has come to pass off clan leadership, cancel my preorder on TTK and trade in my copy of Destiny. And I know I'm not the only one who feels this way. I can't believe the sheer arrogance and ego I witnessed during that Eurogamer interview. I can't believe the tone with which he spoke to the interviewer - the disrespect, the flippant attitude, the complete and utter disdain shown to the gaming community. I'm trying to believe that ALL of Bungie doesn't feel this way. But after the less than stellar content of both DLC packs, the lack of TTK options and rewards for loyal Day 1 gamers and the broken levelling system that punishes veterans and rewards noobs I'm starting to feel like maybe what Smith said might bear some weight. Listen, I'm not a wallet for you to empty. I bust my behind for every penny and I CHOOSE where those limited funds are spent. One video will not make me throw my money at the screen. And Smith's insistence that the content being offered is worth REPURCHASING what I've already bought is a g-o-d-d-a-m-n insult of the highest order. New gamers may get the benefit of a $70 GOTY edition with TDB and HOW, but it makes no sense why I should pay a combined total of $135+ and STILL be missing content while being forced to buy both DLC packs and the full game TWICE just to play the new expansion. Bungie may not feel the way Smith does but the damage that caveman did to both Bungie and Destiny is colossal. And unless Bungie pulls a rabbit out of its hat, the damage may be irreversible. I will wait and see what Bungie has to say before I make my final decision. And then I will speak with my wallet. DeeJ, I hope what you have to say is better than Smith. And, if you want them to stick around longer, I hope it's more respectful of the fan base that supported you guys throughout the first year.
