So since Destiny has a bit of downtime for the next few months, as you do, you play other games to kill time until Destiny gets an update. One of the most significant things I've noticed since playing some other games (Vrising, Outsiders DLC etc.) is how much Bungie time gates with the season pass and the whole reward structure.
Season pass Pros/Cons

From a financial standpoint, the season pass works 100%. Promoting Destiny every 3 to 4 months ish, keeping public interest and getting frequent updates. The narrative over the last year and a half has been superb also!

The seasons are starting to feel more and more recycled in terms of the games reward structure. The activities recently have felt pretty mediocre. Everything seems to be getting time gated more and more each season (I agree with the week story being time gated).
DLC Pros/Cons

Hopefully, we'll get bigger drops since they'll not be working on the season pass anymore, and more development time for the dev since theoretically it would be two DLC's a year. I'm hoping also that this would allow them to focus on the playlist activities (Strikes, Gambit, Crucible), adding more strikes, new gambit and crucible maps and hopefully and more playlist loot etc. I would also hope this would allow them to renew the endgame experience more by getting bigger raids or dungeons, better challenges, and reworking how master raids or dungeons (aka making it contest level).

I think one of the biggest downfalls here would be content drought 100%, they would lose profit to an extent (I honestly think this would depend if they have the dungeons as a separate package) or if the DLC became more expensive.
Honestly, I've never really enjoyed the season pass model personally. I would rather go back to getting 2 DLC's a year, one medium size DLC (Warmind, RoI), than getting one big DLC (WQ, TKK, FS).
I hope Bungie looks into changing how the season passes reward structure works IE stop time gating everything! Or ditch the pass in general.
P.s This is purely constructive criticism for hopefully the team at Bungie to read. Thanks for coming to my TED talk!
