I... guess I'll wait a little bit? (Destiny)

So... December 8 is 3 weeks from yesterday, and normally I'd just rip the bandaid off and pay the upgrade cost (well, purchase price, I guess) so that I didn't have to worry about it.

But in today's TWAB was this line:

Players who wish to continue playing Destiny 2 on Xbox should look for Destiny 2 expansion discounts that will be available soon.

So... are they talking about the 20% discount available right now... or are they talking about something else?

I suppose I'm gonna wait and see, because the only thing more annoying than dropping $40 when I wasn't expecting it is dropping $40 and then finding out a few days (or maybe a couple of weeks, who the hell knows what 'soon' means) later that I only needed to drop $30. Or $25. Or whatever.

Biggest fear now? I forget entirely, December 8 comes and goes, I lose access to a bunch of shit, and the discounts vanish, leaving me with a $50 price to pay.

The local bar at the corner has a sign above its door that currently reads

Be the reason that someone smiles today. Or drinks. Whatever.

Seems... appropriate at the moment. Thanks, Microsoft!
