I'm alright with it, I'm having tons of fun and I bought both of the DLCs so I'm good for the next one too! :)

Considering they don't charge a monthly subscription fee, $20.00 is not an issue. (dude, It's the cost of a pizza)

I don't see what the big deal is. You play games for fun, correct? If it's not fun for you, don't play it. The dlc was 20, correct? So far, just on dlc stuff, I've played about 12 hours doing bounties, strikes, and the raid. So, 12 hours of fun this far cost me about $1.66 an hour. The game itself I've played 600ish hours I think? So, ten cents an hour. That's cheap entertainment in my book.

Do you not understand what early dlc are? In order to have an early dlc it NEEDS to be in the game before launch. However, it doesn't mean it is finished. Who cares if they cut content. Movies have been doing it for years yet you spend $20 on those and watch them once? Games have been doing it for years. I still play destiny like I did when it first came out. Every chance I get ill be on it. If they had a $100 DLC with an exclusive exotic that was op I would be all over it. I bought wow editions and paid more just for a pet that was purely cosmetic. Spend the $20 or $30 and buy the dlc or just pay the original game. You paid 60 for a game that has $60 worth of content. There are a lot of games I've bought that were no where near $60 worth of content. Get over it

Honestly with this dlc I'm going to be playing Destiny much much less if at all. The exotic reset, the autistic eris bounties, the new gear grind instead of new gear choices. Not only did they not add any story but they actually diluted it into "powerful black woman yells at you while you kill things". Fvck me that's worse than dinklebot. If I want to continue to enjoy the guns that I did and have situational choices I must now complete thousands more of the same bounties that I have already done with the same damn guns. That's just sad. They took away my guns and won't give them back unless I give them my hours. I'm fine with pouring hours into new guns but old guns as well is absurd. I'm fine with new gear but not allowing me to choose between old and new raid gear is absurd. This is like forza coming out with a car pack and telling you that oh by the way we wiped the tunes and upgrades on all your other cars. This is no longer a game I can condone playing. It uses cheap tactics to increase play time. If they hadn't fvcked with me at all with these abysmal manipulation strategies I would have gladly poured double the time I have in the game now. Sadly though, half of all people are of below average intelligence meaning 90% of this community if not more will either recognize the cheap tactics and play on because the mechanics are that good (and they are) or blindly keep playing in ignorant bliss. Destiny 2 will fail. I long for a game that can match Destiny's gun play with a true no bullshit mmo experience. Perhaps Bungie should look to valve for some customer relations advice. Maybe take a few cues from Rockstar and Bethesda about releasing compete games. This game is a hilariously colossal failure. But, actually, it isn't. Video games are becoming movies. Flood the market with hype everyone buys it and then forgets about because of how awful it was. But wait! Next year THIS GAME is coming out. What a joke. Get your shit straight guys. I'm done with anything that is neither a racing simulator or an indie game. Valve Bethesda and Rockstar will still receive my love but I know now to avoid anything with a big name attached.

Yes and here's why. If they hadn't promoted Destiny as intensively as they have, then everyone would be falling over themselves to praise this game, and it would win game of the year awards etc. But because they wanted to cash in they made it seem more amazing than it actually is and now everyone is disappointed. Weird, because the game itself is pretty amazing. Gameplay, graphics and mechanics are unmatched by any game ever. Story is a bit lacking, and the game could be considered repetative (which is really bullcrap, both games like CoD and WoW are infinitely more repetative) but the core of the game is still amazing. A marketing decision dictated your opinion of the game, not the actual game itself.

Am I ok with Bungie putting DLC in the strike rotation? Yes. It's one out of six weeks, cry more. Am I ok with Bungie making me raid more then once to get all the gear I need? Considering I was ok with Blizzard doing it to me for nine years yeah I am. Am I ok with repetitive content? Played Diablo 2/3 for years. So I am. Am I ok with the lackluster story? Not even slightly. On the story and open-world rpg front this game is an unmitigated disaster. Is that enough for me to not enjoy the game? Nope, I'm still having a lot of fun, I just wish I was having fun in a 9.5/10 Destiny and not a 6.5/10 Destiny. But no seriously the DLC thing is getting to stupid levels. I don't understand how someone who's still playing this game so often they care about losing 1/6 weeks worth of rewards hasn't bought the DLC.

Cool story bro

Big talk with someone who has played just under 200 hrs of destiny. Go cry somewhere else.

I keep seeing you guys defending bungie like it's your firstborn child with the "it is a business" excuse. Do you people think that being a company means they can't mistreat their fans/customers? What you're saying is correct, they are a business. That means when someone feels satisfied with their product, they are allowed to purchase it again. When they are not satisfied with it or the price, they are allowed to complain and not buy the product again. Our friend Hodor cares enough about the company to come onto the forums and make it clear why he is dissatisfied. This is a favor he is doing for the company, and they see it as a major asset. He is helping the company see how to give the fans a better experience, and he is helping the fans / customers potentially get a better experience in return. And yet you people get up on some glorious defensive steed and insult the dude like he slept with your mom or something. If homeboy wants more bang for his buck, you should support his ability to ask for it, even if you are already happy with your experience. People submitting complaints on here are trying to help you.
