I cannot really debate with you when you don't understand the difference between ownership of a product and ownership of a license (which might be a physical copy or digital) to use a product. I think you might understand better in these terms. Have you ever bought a computer program? Like Photoshop maybe. You buy a disc (or nowadays you can probably get it digitally but let's stick to the physical disc as I'm assuming you have a physical copy of destiny). And that disc allows you to install and access the program... But you do not own that program. Unless you're a share holder in the company that owns the program then you in no way, shape, or form own that program... And based on how they conduct their user agreement (that you agreed to when you purchased and installed their program) they can alter the program anyway they see fit within that agreement. They can even change the agreement! (Ever notice sometimes when you log on to destiny it asks you to accept the new agreement-- they've changed parts of the agreement many times over now!) I hope this clears this up for you a bit.

I'll just leave this here, Luke Smith speaking We asked about Bungie leaving year-one players behind. “I think we didn’t do a good job of explaining that ahead of time... We also haven’t done a great job of explaining what is content that players own and what’s programmed content—things that are subject to change.”

Short novel below... [spoiler]They are indeed remarkably and unquestionably [i]bad[/i] at providing transparent and straightforward information about this game. No contest. PR is lacking, clarity and content of weekly updates are infuriating, and even patch notes have questionable wording... My straight up opinion is that there are some definite shady business practices being employed and a not-so-undertone-ish undertone of general lack of f_cks given about what we, the consumer, really want. And the artificial extension of gameplay, grind versus reward ratio, and overall creativity in game mechanics are-- frankly-- depressing. Do I play the game anyway? Yep. But my expectations are permanently nil, and until I see a change in the direction these companies are taking, I will not throw money at my screen for any game they have their hands on. All that being said, there's a divide between what the community wants and what is both practical and good for their business-- because you have to remember that they [i]are[/i] a business. And many people in this community do not know how to properly convey their opinions. Furthermore, regardless of whose fault it is, many in this community have a sense of entitlement that is not aligned with reality. Basically the situation is a fluster cuck.[/spoiler] TLDR: The only thing anyone can do is respectfully and thoughtfully deliver their opinions while trying to remain practical and keeping in mind that they are dealing with a business... And take responsibility for the money and time you give this business.

Thanks for the quote. They did state that we would receive a half dozen exotic armors per class however, and I don't remember a post, PSA, tweet, quote, ANYTHING that what they were advertising mere weeks before had been sliced into a third.

Because they have no concept of how communication actually works. I think the players are doing a good job on this front, while Bungie remains mostly mute

Ok, I understand, thanks for that. But regardless, I should still have access to the content promised. Just what I think, but I still enjoy the game.

You will, like I said to the other guy, we aren't even quite two months into year two... They will come as they have always come-- in groups, over the course of the year. As someone who was here in year one, none of this surprises or offends me.

It doesn't offend/surprise me, I just think it's not the right way to go about giving us content.

Exactly. I'm not talking about the legality of it. I don't care that I bought a license, I know that's how games work. I care that I paid for something and it wasn't delivered. If they had stated they would roll out the content, I wouldn't be as angry. They lied by omission. I don't think anyone expected when they purchased the taken king for a huge chunk of it to be missing.

Anyone who was here in year one [i]should[/i] have known better. Sorry.
