>Implying exclusivity was unfair... (Destiny)

All I want is the same amount of content as people who paid the same amount for a game as I did.

Then you shouldn't support companies that engage in this practice by buying their products.

Yeah, shame on me for taking the only deal offered. Where is the shame on the company that offered the deal?! You're focusing your attention on the one that only had one option if he wanted to play Destiny before "at least Fall of 2015" instead of the companies that gimped their product and made deals to offer him that single option.

Did you buy any version of Destiny? If yes, then who are you to criticize others for doing the same?

I'm not criticizing you for buying Destiny. I'm criticizing you for your apparently hypocritical decision to buy Destiny. You did not take "the only deal offered." You had a choice:

-Buy Destiny, knowing that you were supporting a publisher/developer decision that you claim to disagree with.

-Not Buy Destiny, and show the publisher/developer that as long as they engage in such practices, you won't support them.

As for me:
I don't have any major qualms with platform-exclusive content, as long as I have a method of legally obtaining it. Despite your assertions otherwise, it's a valid and fair business tactic that companies can employ to entice consumers into making specific decisions. Would the world be a better place without it? Sure. But compared to a lot of the other issues the industry is forcing consumer to deal with, it doesn't rank anywhere near the top of my list.
I have a number of publishers that I've decided not to support, based on their business tactics, and so far I haven't strayed.
