My thoughts... Destiny got a mediocre metscore on release... that metascore is far more favourable now signifying that Bungie has listened to its critics and done something to improve things. I waited for TK before going in because EVERY MMO IN HISTORY has gone through an initial phase of stabilisation before the metagame has settled into something stable. The so called paywall is nothing of the sort. Its a matter of choice whether you buy or not, and whilst I appreciate you may be sore about hard won gear losing its edge dont forget that every Warcraft expansion has rendered the previous expansions gear as obsolete on a very regular cycle . That is the price paid for progression. as the level cap rises gear will become obsolete in the metagame. thats just a fact. additionally it is your opinion that this expansion renders large amounts of content worthless. I bought the game and am playing all the previous expansions and loving them. The yearly cost in the UK of playing Warcraft is just ove £100 per year, they still stiff their whole community for the price of expansions on top of the subs cost so you could say that the actual cost is more like £130-£140 a year. so Destiny costs are favourably comparable in my opinion. You talk of eliminating light levels! and replace them with what? All MMO's need a progression dynamic of they become stagnant and stale very quickly when the level cap is hit. on any MMO once you max your level you go to rep grinding or direct gear grinding or whatever it is that gives you a feeling of progression. With respect your making the same mistake as other passionate people, you seem to feel you own the game you play and anyone making changes to it is messing with your stuff... you dont own Destiny, Bungie do and they sell access to new content for profit. read your EULA you dont own the game or content but are licenced to play it... Finally you say "requiring players to purchase DLC in order to keep raising their level is going to drive more people away from the game, not actually encourage them to stick around". This statement is oxymoronic. how can you raise a level cap without investment? More content costs more money ergo you need to charge for it... that is capitalism. I think your very passionate about the game and I applaud that. I also think you have to be a little more realistic in terms of what is possible for Bungie from a business perspective. One question have you or are you going to buy TTK?....
