TL;DR: It's good for Bungie, but bad for us. It depends on where you sit. If you look at it strictly from an engagement standpoint it's a good thing. This move guarantees that people will engage with the game for an extended period of time at some point before Final Shape, which is what Bungie wants. It also keeps Destiny in the zeitgeist. From a player standpoint it's crappy, because there are a few very specific weapons people want, and those weapons aren't immediately available. This, on a very understandable level, adds a layer of frustration, because if I want Mountaintop, I have to wait to get it, and if that is the only weapon I have eyes for I just have to sit here with my thumb up my butt like a dork while Bungie decides to dangle the carrot in front of me. It's like getting your Christmas presents one at a time, each day after Christmas, and the brand new bike that you wanted more than anything is among the gifts, but you only get it on New Years Day. I'm happy because I'm getting it, but the frustration comes from knowing that Bungie could give it to me right now, but wants to tease me and string me along. I know the arguments is "be patient, what are you a kid who can't wait" and my response to that is that I'm not a child. I'm an adult with things to do, and I don't have time to sit here while Bungie tries to have it's cake and eat it as well.
