Why are so many voices upset about the DLC?

When I saw the post on the site I pooped. All that new armor? Those weapons? The designs are sweet! new strike? Awesome. 3 multiplayer maps? I'm not a big matchmaking guy, but still. New raid?! I still have to get all the gear from the first one! New merchant too! I wonder if she will sell new bonds marks and cloaks? Emblems? And not to mention some more story missions! All of this meaning more grimoire cards! More lore! I love reading those cards every now and then. 20 bucks? A third of the game? Eh, not really a big deal to me .I already bought the season pass. So that was, what, 35? When you multiplay this pack by two I'd say its worth it. And who's to say there won't be more to this DLC? To the next one? If Activision would've let Bungie put these directly into the game- would I be happier? Yeah. But this is Activision. So Activision. I've seen a few posts on this DLC already and they are almost all filled with hate. But polls suggest the vast majority are happy with this DLC. Myself included. I guess it's easier to write a post on hating something than it is liking something. Anyways, TL;DR: What are you looking forward to in this DLC? I play Warlock and have to say, the armor is cool and all, but the titan got the best of the bunch on this one >_>

  • After taking a day to cool off, I've decided my anger springs from the fact that there is little info I've come across that details how this content will eventually reach Xbox players. Up to this point, my perception is that the added strike in the dlc is content we are paying for, but not receiving since Sony subsidized Destiny's release. So here are my thoughts on this: having to pay for the strike, but not able to play it stinks royally. But if, when the content reaches Xbox next year, it is free regardless of whether we bought the dlc or not, then our arguments are invalid. Sony paid extra money to subsidize content I will get access to, just at a later date. No biggie. Thanks Sony! If anyone can provide specific information or links that detail how this content will make it to xboxes, I'd love to see it. The way I see it, we have three options: those who purchased dlc get the dlc strikes, the strikes are given for free, or we have to buy a dlc next year that contains the missing strikes. I'm hoping for option 2. I'm also hoping, that as an extension to 2, ps users get the strikes for free when released.
