I agree with the argument that none of us should have to pay again for the release of 'the rest of a game' (i.e. not a true expansion just delayed content) because it teaches companies to rush games and be greedy and exploitative. But on the other hand I don't think Destiny is a disaster of a game. I find it enjoyable enough to play as it is now, even though it has room for a lot of potential improvements. However, those improvements will never materialise if Bungie/Activision decide to drop the game - that's not to say that we should all shut up and take it, just that we should be more constructive in our criticism/protest of such things. In my opinion the price of the DLC should be much lower, at least half of what it is now, because at £30/$40 it costs about as much as a new game and whatever the content I don't see that as being very fair since the original game was £40/$60. The developers/people who maketh the game content are doing a job and I have no problem with them earning money from it as long as it is reasonable and not disproportionately overpriced . No matter the content of a DLC pack it is still not a whole new game and should not be priced like one - because that sets a dangerous precedent for the games industry. Naughty Dog's The Last of Us is a good example of how it should be done. The Last of Us Left Behind DLC was priced at £12/$19 - that's a reasonable price in my opinion. Destiny's upcoming DLC expansions bundle should be around £15 (that would be $24) or lower otherwise I will not be buying it, no matter how much potential I think the game has.
