Yea, but the nightfalls level was raised multiple times, correct? And if I'm correct the only reason it wasn't relocked for you was because the Max level only increased by 2 each DLC meaning if you were maxed out when each DLC dropped then you were still withing three levels(you need to be within 3 levels to play a game mode with a level requirement). The only reason you are being excluded now because its a 42 strike and your max level is 34... Seems to make sense to me. Both Iron Banner and Trials of Osiris are endgame activities with level advantages enabled you wouldnt want to play it anyways. And to add onto that the finally added DLC maps to the rotation and put back some of the old ones. Crucible got super stale with out those maps and having them ONLY in a separate playlist meant they didn't get touched as often. You might think they are blocking content. But as OP said. This is how they've been doing it for over a decade. Not destiny itself but MMOs as a whole. It sucks, but better than the alternative method that you guys want. You support destiny, you get the latest content. Simple as that.
