Since Bungie first announced the Taken King DLC for Destiny, most of the Internet has been just one step short of enraged. The thing making people most angry is the pricing for this new content as well as the way the company claimed to be rewarding longtime players, that didn’t look like all that great of reward. Now it appears the company has been working pretty hard to make its fans understand it really does appreciate them. In particular, Bungie community manager DeeJ announced on Twitter that there are other perks in the planning when it comes to longtime Destiny players.
DeeJ was asked whether or not people who had been Destiny players from day one will get “other stuff” if they buy the Taken King legendary edition DLC for Destiny. The community manager answered that “All Year One Guardians will be celebrated in The Taken King, regardless of version.”
The manager didn’t elaborate on just how this “celebrating” would be carried out. He did add that Bungie is getting ready to “talk more about this” on July 7. It seems likely that the company is planning a rather big announcement for Taken King fans on that day. This appears to be an all out press assault take tamp down some of the criticism that has come since the new content was officially announced at E3. Obviously, we won’t know whether or not the July 7 announcement is going to have the desired effect until it we know what it is. Keep your eyes peeled …
