Inwould be interested in the more narrow context of such a ruling. However, the key thing about it not being "sold as such" is that it also wasn't not sold as such. Having HoW was access to a living event. In the same way Queen's Wrath was supposed to be the PvE Iron Banner but that's sure gone. And they didn't really try to salvage it, if you ask me.

Yes and no. They sold Destiny has having monthly live events. The first one was Queen's Wrath, which they eventually replaced with Iron Banner. I guess vanilla D wasn't sold with specific monthly events attached, but it was certainly sold with monthly events. HoW was similarly specifically sold with Trials of Osiris. So people who bought both are losing the monthly events they were promised in vanilla (whatsoever those might be), and trials, which they were specifically promised.

I honestly don't know how many people are going to be actually affected by this, but it really offends my sense of what's right and what's wrong.
