Not sure that people would complain if it wasn't tied to Silver purchases. If I would've known this is how Destiny would turn out, I would've never bought the game. Microtransactions, whether they're cosmetic or not really annoy me. Everything should be obtainable without the need for real money. I've spent enough of my money on this game for lackluster content. They finally add something that many people wanted, but not because people wanted it, just so they can milk more money out of the dwindling playerbase until people are fed up with the whole game in general. This isn't a sign that Bungie is remembering how to have fun with games again, it's Bungie realizing people like you will waste money on stupid 3 week events like this, guess what? This is going to be a new trend for Destiny, every couple months there's going to be another cash grab expertly disguised as a "fun event", but the only way to really get the most out of these events is to spend real money, has nothing to do with making fun content, just another cash grab in most people's eyes.
