Wow it's like September all over again Things that are relatively obvious now post launch and TDB: Destiny's original story got whacked and they went with the much thinner and incoherent mess you got. Sucks but it happened. Regular DLC was always the intent (see contract with Activision). Geography/geometry for first two DLC areas has always been on the CD. The actual game programming for DLC was not complete at launch but is completed later - see how much they are changing mechanics to tweak the game in real time. Destiny will be a pay-as-you-go model, almost like a subscription but more like pay in installments for content. I assume 95/year for base game/Comet plus two DLCs. I do not expect some awesome missing story to suddenly emerge out of the next DLC. There will also not suddenly be planets like Jupiter. Best shot for really fresh content like that is Comet. This is not some big conspiracy. It's a set of decisions that got made by a real organization of human beings under time constraints. You are welcome to like and support it, or not. I do expect future releases like Comet or Destiny 2 to begin to more fundamentally address the shortcomings in story and gameplay.
