I really wanted to talk about this video. I’m surprised by the support I’ve seen on this video over in the /r/destinythegame subreddit because I think it’s overly dismissive of real issues and the communities feelings towards it.

One of his points that really stuck with me was when he said that the FOMO doesn’t matter when it comes to seasonal stories because I can look up videos or other resources online to try to catch up.

Is that really a good enough solution to deflect criticism from Bungie?

What about triumphs or titles?

This video really left a bad taste in my mouth, but I recognize that I’m in the minority on this.

    Do you not have a problem with FOMO in the games you play? If so, what would be the line that you would draw where you finally go “This is too much”?

      Not really. I haven’t finished a single battle pass since witch queen. It becomes too much when I feel like I have to do busy work to get stuff done. I am too old to be doing chores in my video game lol.

        What about the price though? Does the cost of content influence how you feel about it? What would be your line where you finally go “this is too much”?

          I feel like that is up to each person to decide. I don’t mind the cost of the deluxe with the season pass and dungeon stuff and whatever but I feel like I get the value I want out of it. I think the segmentation of everything is getting a bit much, so if it gets worse I don’t know if I will buy into it all like I have for the past few years.
