^^^ This ^^^ (Destiny)

Do you think the people buying the cosmetic stuff would appreciate 'picking up the tab for me'? Everyone should just pay one price and get everything.

We did that when Destiny shipped... We're talking about getting more added on top of that. In this theoretical example, the people who pay some money (which funds the development of a new raid) are absolutely happy. They got the cosmetic item they paid for. If the cosmetic item didn't matter to them, they wouldn't buy it.

The interchangeability of content available through microtransactions though, will always ensure a less mature, and less valuable experience. The very fact that it's optional means it is not tightly integrated into the fabric of the game!

You're talking about the content being sold through micro transactions. I'm talking about the content that can be added because of funding through micro transactions. Did you read my OP? How are new maps, new characters, new weapons, new objectives, and updates to existing maps "not tightly integrated into the fabric of the game"?
