Rise of Iron pisses me off and proves Bungie can't weave a good story....

Edit 4: Since people are NOT reading the actual topic and just assuming I am bashing the DLC overall I am putting this here. That is NOT what it is about. I am not mad about the DLC or ITS story itself I am mad that they built up this war with the cabal and just DROPPED IT for this story which could have been better used or introduced at a later date. IIt's as people have said Filler, which is bad in and of itself. Edit: I do get they are using the Cabal for Destiny 2 or some other big expansion, but as a person who enjoys a good story it seems rather abrupt to just insert a new group of enemies that had little or no build up. As I said in an example, this would be like watching DragonBall Z as it leads up to the Frieza fight and then suddenly, for no real reason, Cell appears out of no where and they fight him instead. Edit 2: For the people saying "It would take time" there has obviously been some time between The Taken King and Rise of Iron. Not to mention, they have used hyperspace/slip space technology in the game as well which could take them anywhere in an vastly less time than you might want to think. Also, saying that the message will "Take Time" is also incorrect. If you people would remember, in one of the missions they say that the cabal received an order outside the solar system to crash the ship into the dreadnaught and use it as a beachhead. For the people bringing up Grimoire, I mentioned that, but it is so minor as compared to the Cabal which had a lot of build up in The Taken King. For the people using the "But House of Wolves came between The Dark Below and The Taken King", That's true, it did, but it was so abrupt and out of nowhere as well, still not a good excuse when it comes to telling a story which is my complaint. You may wonder why I think this. Well before we begin, let's take a back at Taken King. Sure our main enemies were The Taken, but we were largely dealing with the cabal as well. They even go through the process of telling us they have no more ranking officers, and that there was even and outbound message going DIRECTLY TO THE CABAL EMPIRE. They literately build it up as though the cabal will be the next big enemy. Then we see leaks of Rise of Iron, Saladin standing in front of a broken wall. Surely, only the cabal could bring this might to earth, after all the wall has stood for so long..... BUT NOOOOOOO....They build up all this story and tension between Guardians and the Cabal....JUST TO GIVE US MORE FALLEN. Why even build it up that tension in the first place? I mean it almost feels like a goddamn joke. There was barely even MENTION of what the Devil's were doing anywhere in the game or grimmoire either and no Mention of SIVA whatsoever. I mean, this would have been cool if you were fighting the cabal on earth and discovered the Devil's doing something and then it leads up to this.
