Destiny = Pay To Play

I hate how one of the weekly strikes REQUIRE you to have TDB expansion; it makes me sick with anger whenever I ask my friend "Hey wanna run through the nightfall strike with me real quick?" and he replies "Nope, can't. It's omnigul." My friend doesn't have the expansion pack. The hell, Bungie?!?! My friend could have gotten an exotic, or a weapon that is absolutely OP in the crucible, but you deny him that chance because of this. He can't get above level 30 either, so that means he gets stomped in the Iron Banner. (There's some Pay To Win for ya.) He can't get HoC and doesn't have G-horn, so it takes forever to find a VoG group that isn't full of the kind and intelligent elitists that we all know and love. There are even places that are from the HoW that people have [i]already glitched into[/i]! (I've done it myself.) The $hit that we are all psyched to throw our money at is already in the game! Why are they making us pay for something that is already in the game?! I'm so afraid that this rumored "Comet, Plague of Darkness" Mega DLC will also feature the content for the other two remaining DLCs. The Comet bs will be so full of Pay To Win/Play at this rate. What if the rumored new subclasses are OP? What if the weapons in this expansion are OP? The bungie I know wouldn't do this. (Hell, any smart company wouldn't do this...) If you don't like speculation then don't read this spoiler. [spoiler]I personally think it's Activision's fault. Bungie never did anything of this magnitude to us loyal fans before they paired up with Activision. They were great to their crowd when they were paired up with Microsoft, even.[/spoiler] Hope you enjoyed my rant. I'll be adding edits later on. Edit 1: I play with him on PS3. He got his own a long time ago, and he got Destiny for his birthday from another friend. Edit 2: You guys totally are right about the term Pay To Play and how I should have expected a lot of expansions. Don't get me wrong, I like the dark below. But I really think that having to pay for content that's already in the game is fuqed up. I don't believe that you should have to pay again for something that you already paid for.

    First off, it really doesn't cost much to get the dlc. This is coming from a younger player who doesn't have a job and who's parents don't just buy them everything. Second, you can get to level 31 buy buying vendor gear, which is available whether you have the dlc or not. Third, the rocket thing? Really? Groups should not require you to use rockets against aetheon. Lmgs are better for him unless everybody is using Ghallahorns. Lastly, just because certain areas are in the game doesn't mean they were completed, maybe it just makes it easier to program them later if they have the basic areas in. (That's just a speculation tho) but seriously, why wouldn't you get the dlc? Some people are willing to spend like 20$ a month for most "pay to play" games with subscriptions. I think 20$ every few months isn't too bad.
