Bait and switch (Destiny)

A raid in each expansion was hardly an unreasonable expectation.

Exactly, especially since the first expansion had one.

I think Bungie recognizes that expectation else they wouldn't have described their decision to not include it the way they did.

Given that it wasn't an unreasonable expectation, I'm wondering about the future raid, its presumed inclusion in Comet and how that might shake out price-wise.

Would comet be available to players who didn't buy the expansion packs? Could the raid be available separately from other new content to people who have the expansion packs or could there be a discount available to such people.

How is this handled in WoW? I'm just not familiar with the model.

Regarding HoW, despite some disappointment I'm excited about new story content and intrigued by a completely new activity.
