you did not have to purchase Destiny Day one, if you waited a month you could have picked up a used copy for $10 or more dollars off and that would have solved your problem of paying full price . you could have waited 3 months and picked the game up for $20 used , etc you paid full price because you wanted to ,,, if Enough people on Xbox spoke with their wallet ( like people spoke with their wallet against Microsofts Xbox1 policies before release ) than Activision's bean counters would have had meetings to discuss what they could do to entice Xbox players to buy Destiny , if that was with a price reduction or with some minor added content/weapons as to not go against their deal with sony but still appease their xbox fans . the cable company comparison is similar in that you can Choose to buy one of their Optional packages that has content you don't want included in the price , or you can choose to go with a different cable company with different options and pricing plans ( like you could buy a PS4 instead of an xbox if you wanted to get all the Destiny content, nobody forced you to buy an xbox or to buy Destiny,, ) OR you could wait till a cable company has a Special where you get 2 years at a reduced price and again you would be paying less ( in the cable companies case tho you would not be getting more for waiting like you would have with Destiny ,, but you would be paying less money so the added channels you don't want would not seem as much of a rip off because now your paying less for the channels you do like ) nobody forced you to buy an xbox instead of a ps4 , you knew when you paid for Destiny that Bungie is trying to establish a Loyal player base with Sony as they have with xbox fans , you knew they have an exclusive deal with sony and there is timed release content on sony , choices, choices, choices, you made alot of choices and one aspect of your choices was that you would have to wait for timed release content and pay a premium price if you wanted to play it release day ,,, and you made the choice to do that also .
