I want to say that you are wrong, but in fact I think we're talking about two different things entirely. Two different groups of people. The people you're describing ARE NOT the people I'm describing. And yes, there is a lot of entitlement here. If you can't see it that's (as you put it) your ignorance. The last 12 months on this forum has seen non stop complaining for free content, that the content provided in the base games or expansions wasn't adequate, that expansions should be free or much cheaper, that much of the expansion content should be provided for free to people who didn't pay for it, that people should boycott the expansion because it's too expensive or unless additional content is offered for free... it goes on and on, and has for over a year. and it is entitlement. The idea that, after having revived something that you paid a fair amount for you somehow deserve to get more. Yes, we all want more. Of course. Feeling like you deserve it is the problem. Feeling entitled to it is the problem. What you're talking about is a separate issue which I don't really disagree with at all. but you're confusing and conflating the two issues.

There's a lot of entitlement running around. And it's also lame that people think they we ripped off. If you didn't like the content of the original, WHY would you buy more? Also, books get made in to THREE movies all the time. The media industry cuts stuff up and feeds it to us ALL. THE. TIME. And we accept it...

But this chopped story is a first for a computer game and unfortunately we let it happen. Our trust in an experienced studio has been abused. If any other studio other than Bungie (and maybe Bethesda) did this then there would be uproar. It's not entitlement, it's called being ripped off. It's being fed a pack of lies about the original base game and overcharged for shit DLC's. It's worse than an abusive husband/spouse... It's -blam!-! -blam!- of the wallet.

You weren't ripped off. Explain what you paid for that you didn't get? You weren't lied to. Explain what Bungie promised you that they didn't deliver on? You weren't overcharged. Millions of people bought the content at the asked for price. You weren't required to buy it. You had a choice. It was up to you. You may have decided later that you don't think the content was worth the price, but prices aren't set by individual preference.

Dude. Tell that to someone who's been abused.

Seriously. These abuse comparisons are disgusting and completely inappropriate.
