Here's an explanation of sorts:
We all went to a restaurant: Bungie's Steakhouse. We ordered a bowl of soup (Destiny). We ate it and enjoyed it. Then Bungie offered to sell us a salad (Dark Below) and breadsticks (Wolves). We bought it. We liked it. Then they offered to sell us a steak dinner (Taken King). And we bought that. And then, Bungie brought out the dessert cart and started passing us free slices of cake and dishes of ice cream (SRL, Festival, and of course Iron Banner). And we get so used to all these free goodies, we started thinking we were entitled to them, even though we didn't pay for them. However, we're not entitled to anything. [i]Zero percent[/I] of the millions of players worldwide are entitled to any of these goodies. But [i]ninety [/i]percent of the players will continue to get them, in other words get more than they paid for, provided they purchase an additional meal. The remaining ten percent (including me) will simply get the content we purchased and that's it.
Yes, we holdouts will be frozen out, unless we decide to swallow our pride and upgrade (and maybe swallow a lot of Top Ramen and baloney sandwiches because we spent our grocery money on that PS4). BUT, we're not losing stuff we're entitled to, we're just not getting stuff above and beyond what we're entitled to. The free dessert cart will roll right past us. Maybe it feels unfair. Maybe it even is unfair. But Bungie is well within their rights.
