$5.00 per dance vs $5.00 pint of some stellar craft IPA at the local beer-pub... eh... sorry beer will always win. Let's see...

This is precisely how I control my spending. Spending $20 on something doesn't sound like much until you realize that's 4 beers at the craft beer bar.

Am I the only one who sees it the other way? $5 for something I'll use every time I play Destiny, vs $5 for something that'll be gone in 15min?

I'll spend $5 on both, I'm just saying $5 on an emote seems like money well spent compared to a beer

I will kill you in the crucible. I will do the Carlton over your dead body.

Well now.

The Cryptarch's Bane
I really hope Bungie is above that. Also, it should be divisible enough that the +100 and +300 matter.
Well, it's not Bungie's call alone. Plus it's just such standard practice. Would be nice to see something novel but I don't expect it.

I don't know... I'm very happy to get a free emote or two from the Sample Silver but I am pretty wary of spending any actual money before getting a taste of the kind of free content releases they're planning to subsidize with these microtransactions. It actually makes me a little nervous seeing all of the money you guys seem ready to toss at them hehe

Xur rerolling exotics? Interesting.

My Gravtion already has the roll I want tho so I'm good and it's not like I use any other exotic gear.
 
"Players can now reroll Stat nodes and Upgrade nodes on Exotic armor via the “Twist Fate” node

Wow, very interesting.

What did they replace Shot Package with? Random perk?

Also, Spindle beef happened. Wish Chaperone didn't come out at reset. Fucking Bungie. Wanted to infuse it ASAP.

Even LESS Strange Coins :(
They weren't even raining to begin with since most of the sources of them are RNG. The only guaranteed way to get them were faction/cryptarch rank ups.

I bet rerolling exotics resets their power back to 280, in addition to their upgrade XP progress.

Thanks for doing that Bungie after I already got the 310 exotics that I want.

Bungie wants people to tackle Public Events again. As for Strange Coins, I got a shitload this week. But 13 from NF also contributed to this, lol.

I'm getting TDB vibes. Better just try to get the wanted roll via engrams.
