You cannot keep blaming activision and go on treating bungie like they're completely innocent.
I'll be buying TTK, but Destiny is my last bungie game unless they can prove themselves otherwise.
to be fair, Destiny is probably Bungies last game as they've agreed a 10 year cycle for it

Bungie agreed to become contractually obligated to deliver content releases at set intervals, and it's evident they're having major issues meeting that obligation. The pricing may be Activision Blizzard, the content is all Bungie. I think the issue is not so much the price tag, rather how much one receives for their money.
I've been playing the DLC for the last year. $40 is fair for the expansion and the other packages are for new players.
For me, all of the previous DLC I missed, the new Taken King content and all of the changes seems like a reasonable deal for $60 with the game I already bought packed in. As even the base game content has been revamped and I am going to be playing through it again anyway. Then when I add in all of the extra content, I hardly feel like I am getting ripped off. I mean hell, the Taken King itself has a new campaign outside of all the other extra content it brings.

I think the 40 wouldn't be such a big deal if Dark Below didn't feel so sparse and Prison wasn't so boring. But for all intents and purposes, everything about TTK sounds like they're trying to make it worth it.

they could leave out the basegame and sell you both dlc and TTK for $60, would you be more happy?
it has some stupid dance moves, shaders and class items that are not worth a penny.
Thanks for this post. This cleared my confusion.

For Digital, yes. Any Digital Version that includes Vanilla + expansions, you can play today
You're welcome! Glad it helped someone

This dissapoints me. I picked up the collectors edition thinking that was one of the benefits. Didn't realize the legendary would also have that.

The thing is, Digital Collectors gave people a chance to play the base + first 2 expansions up to 3 months early! The Digital Legendary edition just came out now so you still get almost 3 weeks to enjoy it ahead of time.
If you picked up the CE within the last week (or so) then yes, that's disappointing. But if not, it's like any other game you buy - the price goes down eventually.
I randomly picked up destiny again yesterday after my Blops3 beta withdrawals.
I forgot how fun the grind was with this game. Saw this thread and realized I could get the 2 expansions I was missing immediately plus TTK next month, made my night. $20 per dlc was doable for me. Thanks for the post!

Correct. You'll be able to play the base game + DB + HoW now and when TTK comes out you'll be able to jump right into that as well.

Deluxe meaning Collector's? The only difference between that digital versus Legendary Digital are Dance Emotes, Shaders, and Class Items that have XP boosts for Collectors, for an extra $20. So it's a matter of $60 or $80 and if those differences mentioned is worth it to you or not.
Either package is absolutely worth it. I think this is the best time to jump in the game with all the fantastic changes / overhaul it's getting within the next 3 weeks.
As far as content goes, you are getting the most content for the money.
(some argue that the dlc 1 & 2 should have been included day 1 that is a whole other thing)
The game will keep you busy for quite some time. I would recommend.
If you are on the fence you should be able to download the trial version, if you like it you can just buy the game and it unlocks everything without extra download.

Is the extra $20 for the old dlc worth it?
If you play the strike playlist then yes you need it to play those strikes. If you do not have it you are stuck running lvl 24 strikes.
Also it ends up being $20 per dlc that way.

Sounds like it. I sold my copy after a few months because of frustration with lack of content and horrible game design/business decisions.
Seems like they've righted the ship, for me.
I tried the trial on 360 when it first was available. Seemed OK. I guess I will pick this up and have it download over night.
How big is the download? I'm at work at the moment. Xbox one if that makes any difference.
Sony store says minimum 40gb storage space required. Not sure how large the actual download is.
I guess I will find out when I get back home. Just purchased the digital collectors edition from the marketplace.
I only have the standalone Destiny without any DLC.
If I pre-order the TTK Legendary edition digital copy from the PS Store, will I immediately have access to the two DLCs that come with TTK?
Also, pretty obvious but I will still need the original Destiny disc in my PS4 to play the game despite downloading the TTK Legendary Edition right?

Thank you for this, honestly.
Yes. We can play everything else now, but the Taken King content will release on September 15.
No if you buy the 60 dollar legendary edition than it will give you the digital copy and both expansions right away than taken king on september 15th.
Awesome, thanks!
I just realized the Digital copy already comes with vanilla Destiny..
That means I should uninstall my current install of Destiny that I did from the disc then purchase the Legendary Edition from the store? No longer requiring a disc to play?
This is my first time purchasing a digital game from the store....

Dont know how to cancel a order in PSN

Not a bad chart, but the second-to-last one (the digital CE for year 1 owners) doesn't exist. The $20 extras are going to be released as a separate add-on for the people who bought TTK digitally for $40 and want to upgrade to the CE.

You can, make sure you download the game and or expansions through ps4 store (if no download option is available it is already done)
Once the ps4 store logs that you have them (makes no fucking sense) you can the pre order the taken king digital version.
I had too do this, many have this problem and many do not know how to get round it.
Go to your settings on ps4, go into account settings and one of the options there tzkes you to stuff you have bought and pre ordered.
It is shit to find the item you are after you have to click on each one too see what they are.

Any word on what the final size for this will be digitally? Need to check to see how much space I have left.

This is kinda bs. I preordered the taken king when they put it up for the $40 before any of this came to light. A few weeks ago I contacted Sony support via chat and they will not give me a refund so I can reorder the $60 version. What a rip to the original, day one players who prordered the expansion early early.

I'm guessing this is Sony's fault. That is very upsetting to hear, sorry

If that's the case, they should upgrade the $40 preorders to the $60 version for those people.
So, to be clear, the Legendary Edition does not come with the shader, emotes and year 1 emblem?Here's a chart I made a while back. Hopefully it helps to those who are confused by it all.
Yeah, I bought the base game back when it launched and bailed after beating it. But all of the extra content, plus a more balanced base game for $60 seems okay by me. I mean, we are even getting a new campaign. I have zero issues with buying the Legendary Edition.
