Games can no longer sustain long periods without some sort of monthly cash flow. How else do you expect servers and game content to continue to come out? All in all its a business and at that a business that tries to cater to its gaming community as much as possible , but still trying to stay profitable . Conclusion : You really don't understand what's happening "f you’re not interested in what Tess has to offer, you won’t ever be forced to pluck an item off of her shelf. You’ll still receive updates to the game, and you won’t lose a Crucible encounter or fail to clear a Raid because you didn’t have the right Eververse Trading Company emote equipped." You can not read. And you are a jackass. Plus free dlc for people buying shaders etc. I bet if it was in game since day 1 from the vanilla version you would not say a word, how could you it was already there. Just think of it like this Instead of paying for the newest strikes raid and missions you Will get them free now you have money to customize your character to your liking So shut the -blam!- up and stop bitching
