People have legitimate gripes about the DLC and the way it is being rolled out. First off $20 for really not that much more content. Bear in mind that is 33% of the cost of the original game for what will amount to less than a 10% increase in content for a lot of people. I do not know how much of the pricing is developer or publisher driven, but this reeks of my past experiences with Activision. Bungie, in the past, released DLC but it was not integral to the story of their games, so not getting the DLC was not going to hurt the overall story and people could happily carry on with out it if they felt it was overpriced. Secondly, the exclusive deal is an issue. Xbox players will pay the same price for the DLC as PS players but not be allowed to use the same amount of content for almost a year after the DLC is released. Yes it is only one strike, but still if I go buy something I expect to get delivery of the item I am purchasing within a reasonable time frame, not a year later. Since I am on Xbox One, charge me a prorated amount for the DLC as to what I will have access to now and when the exclusivity agreement lapses, then give me the option to purchase the other content. Don't charge me up front for something I cannot use. What will probably happen is I will end up waiting for the DLC to hit the Games with Gold discount before buying it or hang up Destiny for other games which would be sad since I do see the potential in the game. It really could be fantastic, but I am not willing to be nickel and dimed the entire path to becoming what Destiny can be.
