Waiting for Destiny 2 PC. Did you cave?

[Dudemanguy]

Not in any rush to get Destiny 2 anytime soon...but I'm never going to cave in to playing shooters on consoles unless there is mouse & keyboard support, or at the very least, gyro controls.

[oplawlz]

God no, FPS on a controller vs keyboard and mouse, not a hard choice to make.

Yup. Not to mention the huge boost in performance my PC has over any console.

[prwraith]

I caved and preordered it for PC . I wish i could play the beta levels over and over i enjoyed them.

Nope. Saw the bullshit micro-transactions system and moved on. Predatory and exploitative as fuck in an already full-priced game.

How is it predatory when you earn bright engrams at a pretty decent pace?

Mods can be bought from a vendor for Glimmer which drops like flies and are rare quality and the only other things Silver will get you is purely cosmetic which again are earned from Bright engrams which are obtained by every level you get from 20. Even casually farming will net you a decent amount of engrams.

If you are spending real money just for those mods then that is silly considering how easy they are to earn ingame. Not to mention they are nowhere near BIS.

Now if they were selling exotic weapons in loot boxes I'd be fucking pissed. Cosmetics have no bearing on any power related part of the game.

Same here, I canceled my preorder and got Marvel vs Capcom instead. I simply cannot support any developer who feels the need to add cash money lootboxes to their game. Not now, not ever.

It's publisher greed pure and simple and I refuse to be a part of it.

Does the game cost 60 bucks? If yes, any kind of microtransactions are a no no. It would be okay if they had microtransactions, and then free DLC, but it is unacceptable to both charge for game upfront, microtransactions, and then DLC on top of it.

Also, I don't trust them for shit to not make it more inconvenient to get things, to coerce you into buying it, or making the system around there being microtransactions (see single use shaders).

And they haven't made it inconvenient. Single use shaders is moronic but considering shaders can be earned by just playing the game it's not that big of a deal.

I haven't felt coerced at all into buying an optional purchase. Right now a rare mod is 2.5k glimmer. You can make god knows how much in no time at all. And rare mods are kinda shit anyway. Should be aiming for the legendary ones which you have to play the game to get.

I'll maintain what I said if they were really shitty about it such as locking specific shaders behind them or mods then I'd be pissed. Or Exotics/Legendaries.

Bought it for PS4 and was considering PC.

With the current state of the game I find it unlikely ill get it for PC. PS4 is fun but there needs to be a lot of issues fixed before I buy a 2nd copy just to play at 60FPS.

[nomorepriest]

I am loving it on the ps4.
Can't wait for all the people complaining about aim bots and bots in general farming legendary and exotic engrams with the Pc version.

Great mmo for more casual people.

I am exclusively a PC gamer so it's fairly easy for me when it comes to Destiny 2; I have no choice but to wait for the PC release, so I wait. I will admit, hearing all the reviews and people talking about the game on console is tantalizing though even for me who doesn't have a console to just go buy it. I can imagine how bad it can be for people who do have a PS4 or Xbox One that decided to wait for PC.

I know my Guild Master caved one night and just said "fuck this" drove out to Gamestop and got it for his PS4 and told us he was just gonna buy both versions but wanted to play it now. Anyone else cave this bad? Anyone just say screw PC at this point and decide to just play the console version? Or are you also gonna just buy both?

Absolutely not.

It's well known that most games only get better the longer they're out and subject to scrutiny. Especially big name titles like Destiny which are often released early to meet deadlines. All I have to do is look at how bad Destiny 1 was in its opening months vs where it's at now.

Added to that is the simple fact that there is a virtually unlimited supply of new and awesome games streaming out of Steam and other digital markets right now. We're living in a golden age of gaming, and there's absolutely no reason to jump on a bandwagon. I mean, FFS, I have a completely unopened physical copy of Dishonored 2 just sitting on my shelf because I haven't gotten around to it with all the other stuff on my list.

So I'm perfectly content to wait not only for the PC launch, but months after that when I've had time to read reviews and see if the game improves over the state it's in now.

[WintersLegion]

No as I have a ps4 and a pc and my nephew who is the person I will be playing with has an xbox and a pc so to play together we have to wait for the pc versions since we both have one.

[xerus]

To be honest, I'm glad I picked it up on console.

With the current state of the game there is a good chance I won't bother getting it on PC.

[thewallofsleep]

I've heard almost zero hype for this game, especially since the first had a relatively lukewarm reception in comparison to it's hype. It's almost as though people realized it's just another game and not something life-changing.

I'm not interested in the game thematically (no interest in a sci-fi shooter), but I would never play a shooter with a controller.

[Linri]

waiting for pc release, i havent owned a console since 2009

[Deleted]

is this game open world or same as warframe?

[Beazy]

I was going to buy for PS4, but I let my PS+ lapse and didnt feel like paying 110 dollars to play. I'm going to wait for PC version. Im not renewing my PS+ until RDR2 comes out.

[Ealyssa]

is this game open world or same as warframe?

It's pretty much like a FPS warframe yes.

[Cosmic Janitor]

My iron will is so strong, I won't even get it on the good system.

[Super Kami Dende]

My housemate got it on Console. Seeing him already hitting content repetition after a couple of weeks has made me WANT to wait for the PC version just so more stuff will be available when it drops.

I didn't even know there were microtransactions in it, My Housemate seems to have a ton of legendaries and a high Light level without using them.
