I posted ages ago when the DLC was supposedly leaked and what a complete joke it was! Most of the fan-boys went mental to defend the practice of DLC with its "just content markers" or "there is more content" or "I'm a broke ass/ self entitled whiner" lol. now we have details on the content its even less than originally thought... 1. $20/£19.99 Standalone $34.99/£34.99 Season Pass 2. Light Cap: Lvl 32 3. New Armor and Weapons 4. 5 New Bounty Slots 5. new character Eris in story mode, with 3 new missions 6. New Strike: The Will of Crota 7. New Raid: Crota's End 8. New PvP Maps: Pantheon, Skyshock, The Cauldron 9*. Exclusive Strike for Playstation: The Undying Mind Out December 9, 2014 Personally this is joke and complete rip off I want new planets with content and space battles, new gameplay ideas etc. I have seen so many good ideas on the forums yet they release this garbage! Edit 1- I don't care about other games, my point is DLC in general is a rip off and only encourages publishers to release half finished games and shoddy DLC! Edit 2 - Perspective... you brought Destiny for likely £40 probably more. You got 20+ story missions, 4/5 strikes, raid and all the rest. Your gonna pay half that for 3 story's 1 raid 1 strike and rest.... COME ON WAKE UP Edit 3 - WOW so much hate! As consumers you should expect more, defending DLC seriously ? "You have to understand, most of these people are not ready to be unplugged. And many of them are so inert, so hopelessly dependent on the system, that they will fight to protect it" Edit 4 - I'm from the UK so for our American friends £20 = $32, £35 = $56. To be more clear as some people are confused in America you can buy both DLC packs for $35 which is about £22. in the UK we would effectively be paying $56 for the same content Edit 5 - Loads of response and great feedback and only a few idiots posting :) as it stands - Yes is winning by about 100 votes which is surprising as the general consensus from the comments is more in favour of no and disappointment, however UK gamers are clearly far more pissed at the price and rightly so. - Huge amount of people already purchased the DLC happy at 450 votes with 230 people unhappy they already bought DLC. - Also 177 people sat on the fence undecided Edit 6 - Great response well over 3k votes! as it stands on 31st at 10 am in order of the poll.. Y=795 N=572 Und=383 DontC=105 (lol why vote then) have SP happy = 1010! have SP Angry = 469 Edit 7 - IMO the content is disgraceful for the price. I think the game lacks content already and is highly repetitive for no good reason. Alot of people justify the cost by the time spent on the game, to me its irrelevant its quality not quantity. Yes you spent 100 hours in game but half of that was doing the same stuff over and over and over etc. lots of people justify the price by comparing to other costs cinema/food etc again i don't agree its comparable for example i could buy a music album and listen to that for the next 40 years! DLC is way for publishers to milk money from consumers and its unsettling how many people actually don't care and worse even defend the practice! Only way to change this is to vote with your wallet! If consumers didn't buy DLC publishers would hit the panic button and actually think twice before they release games and DLC that would actually be worth a purchase. For the price of £35 i can buy another game and will do so.

  • Look at my played time. I've very happy with this game. I think I just expected too much from this game because I didn't know what it was before it released. Obviously it's not a perfect game but they'll get it right with time. Love the game and can't wait for the DLC!

  • I bought the game late. pretty annoyed at how little content there is. great gameplay and pvp. my dowload of the dlc will depend on how much is actually there when it releases. I have friends that will get it. I will definitely not buy the dlc if the content is the same old same old. which it will be. Bungie sold me 1/3 of a game at full price. I beleive what bungie is releasing should have been part of the original game and I should not, and will not pay for games in this way. im paying more for my consoles and games than ever. pretty fed up with it.

  • NO, not worth the money, I find it sad that they built the (read Another) game around PVP. Like we don't have enough of those and they are better than this. What is real sad is that they Force everyone into PVP to advance and that's just lame.

    • Getting bored... Unlike bf4 which is also the same maps you play over and over, the pve strikes is just too static and easy in Destiny..

    • 2 strikes, 3 missions and a raid!!!!!!!!!!! There's the reason im not only skipping the dlc but also laughing at retards who bend over and accept activision's D in their butt. This DLC is as much of a ripoff as Horse Armor in Oblivion

      • Sure I will. £60 for destiny, now £20 for 1/3 the content. Seems about right (ps4). Don't understand how people got this for £40.

      • The only reason I'll get this dlc is the soul fact that bungie will pull their heads out of their ass and give us a good story that I know they can deliver!! Not this childishly put together bull. It also does not help that they are contracted with the worst dlc [url=http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Godwin%27s_law]-godwinslaw!-[/url] out there. Plz fix this plz

      • I will buy both DLC's this christmas, because I love destiny with all it's flaws and error codes. And as true as some of the comments are criticizing the game, I can't think of anything else i'd rather play.

      • Not happy with getting less content but spending the same amount for it as PS users. The main game is good, but not as fun or interesting as other games being released. My money is moving elsewhere in the future. I don't expect I will be buying "Destiny 2" if there is one either. Fool me once...

        They're selling DLC that's worth $9.99 tops for $19.99 individually or $34.99 in a package. I am undecided, though, because it might actually be well reviewed and improve the game, and there's still time for Activision to get its head out of its ass and lower the price. For now, though, not interested. For as rocky as the post-launch game has been, and how dissatisfied people are, they should sell it at a much friendlier price and win some folks back.

      • I'm not getting it because the game itself is poor quality. Nothing they could ever possibly add would make me want to ever turn this game on again.

          It's a rip off.. Game is a repetitive grindfest. I'll finish some cheeves and move on to games that don't have a butchered story. Taking my "legend" elsewhere.

        • I want to get it but it really does not seem worth it. I would buy it in a heartbeat if there was constant content coming out. Regardless I'll most likely not buy. I'll have so many other games to play around this time.

        • Undecided - I really like Destiny, but I do think that the DLC is over priced for the amount of content. It really comes down to the quality of the content. Something I really won't know until after it's released.

        • Went with undecided. I will buy it but probably next year when it's dropped in price a bit. There are too many games coming out the next few months so destiny will take a back seat for a while. It's not a competitive game so don't really need the dlc straight away.
