I'm puzzled (Destiny)

I personally can't quite understand how dense the backlash is over something that is free.

A lot of y'all seem to be missing some perspective on that key point: FREE.

Bungie doesn't owe Xbox gamers anything but 60 dollars worth of gaming entertainment in the form of the shipping game. Everything else should be gravy.

A. Not exactly free. Had to give some money ahead of time for a product I don't have yet.

B. Though I'm miffed about the length of the beta being so short, and thus likely not allowing me much time to play it at all (I've got family visiting from out of state that weekend :( ), I'm more concerned about...

C. DLC exclusivity after purchase. Like...though I'd be upset if they were timed, I personally think its a bit backhand to withhold content I'm paying for after I've paid for it until someone deems fit...

I dunno. I've mostly not cared about the DLC issues (despite my distaste) because no game until now has had DLC I cared to purchase. It sucks that its Bungie that has to be the company that prompts me to be upset rather than the beast that is EA, or otherwise.
