Dear Bungie (and Activision)
I, as a day one player, won't be purchasing the new expansion for $40 when I end up spending $20 more than new players (even more because I bought the Ghost Edition but we'll ignore that and just assume I bought the vanilla game) and they get cool exclusive content like exotic class items (with permanent XP bonuses) that loyal players don't. That's where I draw the line. I want those exotic class items but I'm not going to be suckered into spending $80 to get awesome exclusive items that noobs get while us loyal players are left in the cold. Not cool, Bungie. I think you're going to lose a lot of devoted fans over this bullshit. If you include all the new exclusive digital content with the $40 expansion for players who already own the previous games and expansions, there's a chance I might purchase it. If not, I'm going elsewhere and it's been a fun ride. Really disappointed in the dishonest marketing on display here. Why would you punish your most loyal fans? It's a sad day. /rant

It's garbage They are literally giving old players ZERO benefits. You want the exclusive content, cough up 30$ for something you ALREADY OWN. It's downright robbery. Bungie I am extremely disappointed, this is very lucrative and downright wrong. Please make it an option for players who have already purchased the dlc and vanilla game, to still be able to get the exclusive items. I can't fathom how you have not thought this may occur. I am hoping an alternate method will come, but if not, the respect I had for this company will be gone.
