they are a little bitch community that thinks the original $60 they spent on the vanilla game should have included free expansions for life, and every one of those expansions should have been bigger than vanilla and bigger than the expansion that came before it. because they paid for it already supposedly.
they paid for 10 years worth of content or whatever it will be by buying the base game. i guess since i bought madden 96 i should get all madden games after that for free for life. every game should let you have the sequels for free since you already paid for the original and you can just claim the rest was cut content that nobody can prove but you still deserve because rea$on$.

Oh, if only the root cause of this problem was whiny little bitches believing they are entitled to something for buying the 'vanilla' game... Let's start with the base 'investment' in this game which you say was $60, released at £45 here in the UK, followed by a season pass which sold at £35 and then in turn by The Taken King - another £45 [The same price IIRC as in the US, in other words, even more expensive due to exchange rates] and then The Rise of Iron at a price of £25.. If you're keeping track that totals £150 if you have been playing since release, NOT a mere $60/£45.. more than THREE TIMES the base game price. The story doesn't end there though, does it? Because at the SAME TIME as each new release there has been a 'collector's edition' of one flavour or another with ALL previous content bundled up for the SAME PRICE as the new content alone; add to that taking away content only to add it back later 'for free', and you wonder why a large portion of the [long term] fanbase are salty? I get progressive obsolescence, I get that the whole destiny framework from game design to pricing structure has been a constant evolution and I GET that Bungie have to make it easy for new players to jump in and having to shell out £150 would put pretty much ANY new player off, but it doesnt make it sit any easier when they release new chargeable DLC which nerfs everything you spent the last year grinding for AND effectively make it cheaper for a newbie to buy. Toxic community? Definitely. Is this something Bungie could have avoided with a better/fairer pricing structure? DEFINITELY

Define better.What would you have done differently, Darth sploog?

Splodge, it's a punk reference, not a teenage ejaculate; and if I could answer that I'd be working for bungie, I'm just here to play the game.. Maybe NOT have implemented the dlc as mandatory updates to the base game; that way everyone pays the same price and everyone gets to work their own way through all the content? Maybe not nerf the old content but give new players the option of paying "full price" to buy a level 40 avatar booster? IDK Couple of ideas just off the top of my head..
-
Fair enough. Just asking because everyone here always seems very quick to tell you exactly why and how the game sucks yet none can ever express a better alternative despite claiming to know so well what they are not doing right.
-
Yeah I totally get that and that doesn't help anyone

I'm at work and had to go into the bathroom to properly log on in the app and upvote you. This comment was too perfect to go on neglected.
