Easy. (Destiny)

And the reason is really, really simple: games are fun, but they cost money, and if you can play without paying, some people will, even if their experience is not 100% of what other people get. So some kid gets the vanilla game for Christmas, but doesn't have the money for map packs 6 months later. Or some guy buys the vanilla game, enjoys it, but on principle says "I'm not paying $15 for 3 more maps - I'll just play the existing 10." Or whatever.
This isn't Halo, though, when map packs caused a divide that made basically everyone unhappy.
I'd be really interested to see how many people continued to play Destiny post-TTK without actually purchasing TTK. I have no way to know, obviously, but I can't imagine that's a large number.
