I won’t speak for anyone else, just myself.
I understand that this update was meant to drip feed content for months.
Yes, I can read.
Yes, I understood that there would be no campaign.
But, I didn’t realize that I would download the content and have absolutely nothing new to do on day 1.
I honestly don’t believe that ANYONE expected to pay and download and then head directly back into the blind -blam!-ing well to do the same old shit they’ve been doing for months.
Whether you’re cool with waiting or not, I honestly thought EVERYONE would agree that something exciting should have happened on day 1. But I guess not???
Even after Osiris I was excited to jump into Warmind to get new weapons and armor. But this... this has been the most anti-climactic dlc release ever. If a Zero excitement, wait-and-see approach is the future of dlc, I think I’ll find a new hobby.
But, please, if you support this model, tell me why. Because this is probably the worst experience I’ve ever had with a video game, and I’ve played Superman 64.
*edit: I appreciate most of the comments. I really wanted to understand how people weren’t disappointed. I can’t say I agree, but at least I understand a little bit better.
To me, day 1 of any dlc should be exciting, and this one provided zero excitement. Seems like people who expected nothing on day 1 got what they paid for. I love the excitement of new content, so this model will never be okay with me.
To the people who said I couldn’t read or I’m a deadbeat for being sad about $35... I’m sorry you missed the point, but thanks for the bumps. Much appreciated.

2 RepliesUnlike a standard DLC format, this year was set up with the Annual Pass format. Meaning, they weren't adding a "story DLC" complete with new story missions and whatnot. They are unlocking seasons with additional activities. Whether you power leveled or not, the first forge is available. There is a quest associated with it. There is a new annex to the tower. There is something to work towards. As for the story, they are not giving it to us all up at front and then rehashing it for months until the next DLC. It's living. It's being told as we go. Take the Dreaming City for example. We have a 3 week cycle, and each week, though the activity repeats, the narrative grows. We are opening up to a new conflict with the Queen as it would appear. I know it's not what we are used to, and change sucks. Am I disappointed that upon the first day of the official Black Armory opening that I don't have a new forge weapon? Yeah. Am I salty about how the content is being delivered? No. I like to complete the Dreaming City each week to see what the new narrative is and see where the story is going. I look forward to when that starts happening on other locations as well. The game feels a bit more alive that way.
