No. (Destiny)
In Year 2, we were told all future expansions would be free, and funded by the new microtransactions they were adding into the game.
We weren't told that. Kotaku published an article saying that "sources" told them this would happen. I don't think Bungie ever said anything like that. They said buying Silver would fund the Live Team, which would provide free updates. The didn't say anything about expansions.
It's another case of bad messaging.
Edit: And by bad messaging, I mean managing expectations. They didn't say anything about free substantial expansions. But they knew that Kotaku article was out there and being taken as gospel by a lot of folks, and they didn't very little (or nothing?) to get ahead of it.
