But why do you guys both keep saying that we get this stuff for free? From Day 1, Destiny has been sold as a 10 year experience with special events and MMO-like events. When we bought the $60 product and subsequently the $35 expansion, this was all assumed to be part of the package. One of the biggest complaints was that Bungie didn't full deliver on this, since Iron Banner was largely lackluster, routine, and disappointing. Once again this was assumed when buying TTK, since the microtransactions weren't mentioned until after it was released.
What if the next Iron Banner has only 2 items that can be earned by playing (and you get it in the first 5 minutes), but emblems and other cosmetic items can be earned but only kept permanently if you spend silver. Is that okay?
