You enter a fair (pay a fee at the gate) does that mean all the rides are free? Course not.
Fee at the gate - the game
The rides - micro transactions.
You are not required to buy anything and so far it's just emotes, a cosmetic item of little value.

Entering a fair is one thing, buying a fair then having to pay for the rides inside is another. What bungie did is basically sold us a fair, then whenever we ask to get on a ride inside the fair we just bought, they ask us to pay for a ticket to the ride.

You seem to be under the impression that Bungie is going to make Story Missions or Raids microtransaction products. Honestly your metaphor doesn't work and makes you sound whiny.
