1)[b] There is no 6 player PvE content in the upcoming expansion[/b]. --For many, the pinnacle of Destiny gameplay is to form a tight knit group of Guardians with similar experience and temperament who have been forged in the fires of wipes, bugs and boneheaded moments in the Raid. You become a well oiled machine only to find out that the machine will have no place to operate during the House of Wolves. 2)[b]People have [i]no faith whatsoever[/i] in non Raid PvE content at a higher level[/b]. No one turns on Destiny hoping to do Eris Morn bounties and that mission [b]again[/b]. These are things you suffer through in order to fill your Vault and make sure you're all loaded out for the [b]Raid[/b]. While I personally found the Dark Below missions to be more interesting than most of the vanilla missions, the quests and bounties for Eris Morn were a boring chore. Even though we've gotten good at killing Omnigul super fast (thanks full auto Crash!), the end of that strike makes us groan when its a Nightfall. The idea that the next expansion relies on these activities is terrifying. 3)[b]We've all given up on the story.[/b] When Bungie says "3 story missions", we know that this doesn't mean 3 mission where you learn about the world, the situation, make decisions and grow as a character. This is just kill stuff with negligible voice over spouting terrible exposition that details events we don't care about. STORY means change, growth and character arcs! Not just information, events and lore. Most of the story in Destiny has become what your team does in the Raid, and how that gameplay brought you all to where you are now. Without the Raid, people are not sure where they're getting their stories from. The Prison of Elders might be one of the most super fun things ever, but it doesn't change the fact that we are getting objectively less content. For high level play, the DLC is taking an unequivocal step backwards, because having 6vE>NOT having 6vE. It is irrelevant how much 3vE evolves, because 3vE has been so lacking that evolution was necessary anyway. House of Wolves was going to be an automatic purchase, even if I wasn't that into it, because I just couldn't let my clan down like that. Now I'll wait and see, because as Bungie themselves have said, 3vE requires much less of an investment than the Raid.
