Like I said, any other game would've absorbed just as much money if not more from you, and then completely dropped support for the game when the next disc sequel comes out a year later. Sure you could still access the same playlists, but matchmaking takes forever rendering the game pretty much unplayable once the majority of the fan base moves on to the sequel. By integrating all of this content into one seamless game experience, bungie's pulling off a huge balancing act and allowing you to benefit from TTK players still populating your online space that would in any other case be deserted for the most part. Why should people that have continued to support the title have to play the same content for a nightfall to accommodate those that aren't invested enough to purchase TTK? If they continued to compartmentalize level req./content types they'd be altering the structure of the game. An easy version of the nightfall. How would that work? To accomplish what you're wanting, they would basically have to break the game up into different versions to accommodate people that are no longer financially supporting them to take on such a task, while the people that do support them wouldn't benefit at all, also taking a work force away from focusing on fine tuning new content. I don't see why people are making such a fuss, when they don't hesitate to buy basically the same game over and over again from developers and all the dlc, and then act like this is absurd. You're experience benefits by what they've offered.
