@Shigurui You are exactly right! Warframe has been doing "Games as a Service" on console better then anybody, especially Destiny. People tend to equate "Free" with bad and Warframe proves that wrong in spades.
You both are 100% correct @Jboy85 and @Shigurui. Every single word! I've been playing since launch (2164 hours played) with short breaks taken here and there but I always, always seem to come back to Warframe. In the F2P space DE is the only one that seems to understand how to keep people playing their game. The in game economy stands out to me as one of the features that makes this game accessible to all players. Anyone can make Platinum by selling their extra loot. Not a since piece of loot in the game is hidden behind a pay wall. I've made thousands of Platinum selling my extra gear to my fellow Tenno and that has allowed me to pick up the pieces of gear that I haven't been able to get to drop for me so I don't feel bad about the 200 or so dollars that I've put into this game. DE really does deserve it. Also, its great to see the team at DE do a Warframe development Livestream every other Friday as well. It's always awesome to see what they have in the pipeline for their players and it's a good way to possibly win platinum or a Prime Access Pack.
@SegaBlueSky Actually Warframe released about a year before Destiny did. Destiny could learn a lot from Warframe. Especially the concept of being able to sell your extra loot to other Warframe players for the premium currency (Platinum).
