Good News (Destiny)

This is good news as far as I'm concerned. A couple of thoughts:

The DLC model doesn't make much sense for a game like Destiny. It's actually a Trojan Horse subscription service; if you don't buy the DLC, I'm not sure what you are getting out of the game anymore. I'm wondering if they were actually seeing a reduction in users when DLC was coming out.

Personally, I thought the pace of the expansions was a little fast in Year 1. I only got to do the Vault of Glass the week before TBD, and felt like I missed out on some stuff when they moved everything along. I didn't get a second character going until right before House of Wolves, and didn't get my 3rd character going until right before Year 2. And that's playing 1.5 hours a night! I don't know how you guys consume this content so quickly. I still haven't even finished all the story missions in TTK on my main character, and haven't done any on my other characters, even though I've 'lighted' them up.

There's still so much to do in this game for me, more large expansions would just make me feel overwhelmed. And, there's a lot of content that was left behind that could easily be re-purposed. We now have Challenge modes for Kings Fall - how cool would it be to get Challenge modes for VoG or Crota's End? And Crucible continues to be ripe for more 'free'-type content.
