I care about Destiny making money because I want this to be a profitable series that has a long and healthy life. To me, this seems worth investing the time to figure out the “character editing” problem that appears to be preventing this from being in the game. Convince one player to buy a couple $5 cosmetic upgrades for their character and voila, you’ve essentially sold them a $20 DLC without actually having to make anything but some face paint and a virtual beard. A portion of the community has wanted something like this for years now, and it could end up being a significant source of revenue for Bungie to please their Activision overlords. Why hasn’t Bungie done this already? The likely answer is that Destiny is not built with the most…flexible of tools, so it’s probably the case that there are significant technical hurdles to overcome to override the “hardcoding” of character creation which locks it in for the rest of the game and makes it unable to be changed, similar to how that works in games like say, Mass Effect, but dissimilar to maybe, Saints Row, which let you change even your voice, gender and race once the game had already started (ideally, the option to change race and gender would be nice here too, since there would finally be say, good-looking human options to choose from, though all my characters are locked-in as Awoken).īut while I understand that this would probably be a big technical obstacle to overcome, I do think that it’s worth devoting some resources to try to figure this out. All this “face stuff” can only be seen in your character menu, in the tower, or in a few cutscenes, though I think it would be in Bungie’s best interest to make a lot more cutscenes where the player’s face can be seen to spotlight all the cool new additions you could buy.

This would likely not be as profitable as say, Fortnite skins, given that in the third person shooter you’re seeing what you bought all the time by looking at your character.
