No one can deny that the Taken King was good for Destiny. YouTubers, Media outlets, and the general internet agrees that TTK was good.
The problem?
It took a failed launch, 2 bad DLC's and months of bashing for us to get our first actual expansion. And to boot, it cost a whopping $40! This is two thirds the cost of the original game, which wouldn't be a problem if it had two thirds of the content, which is sadly does not.
Infact, it removed more content than it adds. Almost everything from Year 1 was invalidated, to missions, to armor, to strikes to both raids and the dreaded Prison of Elders. This is unacceptable. Releasing overpriced DLC is one thing, but removing content in the process is another. There is no legit reason to do the Vault or Crota or the Prison.
Let's not forget the $20 for emotes. Emotes mate, [i]Emotes.[/i] Most games that have emotes give them away for free. Instead, Bungie thinks that emotes are worth 1/3 of a full retail game.
And our overseas brethren are almost paying full Destiny price for TTK and Bungie hasn't even acknowledged it like they aren't aware.
I love Destiny, but if Bungie continues with these business practices, Destiny will be dead within a year.

I feel like you summed this up much better than I did.
