Doubt we will see Viral as its way to Meta and would allow for combos like Viral + Corrosive , Viral + Magnetic , Viral + Gas which would be busted.

Platform exclusive cosmetic items won't be transferred over

Anything that doesn't die to lvl 200-300 and can beef up damage

Given that DE likes to use one week brakes for every Nightwave Season , I'm going to bet the release date will be December 14.

No way his going to do it till sunday . Each mastery test can done once per 24 hours , regardless if you passed or failed .

Sony paid 1.2 billion for employee retainment post acquisition . How Bungie managed to blew that amount of money is mind boggling to me .

Here's my take on why skipping story to get to the latest piece of content is a bad idea . Story quests ( well not all of them ) introduce the player to new mechanic , piece of content that they didn't have access before and three ( if I recall correctly ) serve as tutorial to new mechanics : - Stolen Dreams : introduces player to an NPC Maroo which grants access to weekly Ayatan hunts and allows player to extract Endo from Ayatans - The Archwing : introduces player to the Archwing - The New Strange : introduces the player to Simaris and Synthesis mechanic - The Natah : introduces player to Exilus addapter - The Second Dream : introduces player to Focus schools and lets the player to pick his starting Focus Tree - Rising Tide : introduces player to Railjack - The War Within : introduces player to fully playable Operator and acts as tutorial for Operators abilities and movement system Side quest but I feel like mentioning it : - The Duviri Paradox : introduces player to the Drifter and acts as tutorial to Duviri and Drifter New player who would end up deciding to "Pay to Skip" would be granted access to all this mechanics , systems and content and end up completely clueless and lost . Its a bad design decision to allows players to skip important parts of the game . One other issue would be if "Pay to Skip" would block off players from old content , essentially cutting away much of the meat in Destiny 2 style of content retirement , I however doubt DE would do this but its worth considering the possibility .

You missed the memo I was making

Why get double drops for free than you can pay Platinum for that

To a new player who knows nothing of the game , content being "old" isn't even an argument as said player will experience said "old" content for the first time. This is like saying "yeah that game is old, its not worth playing because of its age" This is such none argument , I can easily counter by saying the exact same thing but changing few letters and still get same result / argument "What's subjective is an individual value and emotional connection. So lets put "emotional value" on content for everyone , there are some players that couldn't be bothered with it and would rather want to continue playing the game the way that they want"

Your statement can also be considered as subjective. On top all the story quest up to New War serve as Rite of Passage. New War concludes the longest running story arc in Warframe , and with its end , new one begins with Whispers in the Walls.

I'm not fond of the idea of paying to skip Second Dream, Sacrifice and New War. Those are big, meaningfull and emotional moments in entire game, hek they could be considered as best moments in entire game from story perspective. DE if you're afraid of piling up to much work for new players who might be interested im your game for its latest content. Than how about you just make all the important story quests accessable much earlier, with out needing to go through half the Star Chart and through faction reputation system.

Warframe isn't story driven game , if you came here for story than you are playing wrong game.
