Witch Queen DLC is free?

[The Questbro]

I have not played Destiny 2 since Forsaken was current content. How does this work? I log in to play after years and I am put straight into the witch queen DLC right away without any kind of prompt to play through the other stuff in the story?

No, it's not free.

However, the FIRST mission (of any expansion or season) is always free. (The first seasonal mission is usually how the Seasonal Artifact is distributed (and also serves as an introduction to the season's antagonist).

This is as a teaser (to get you to buy the expansion) and to give FTP players enough minimum relevant content. All players get access to the Relic that makes weapons for example.

If you want MORE than the first mission, then you'll have to buy Witch Queen.

Okay interesting. Thanks. I am relatively new to Destiny F2P, for example. I had Forsaken and Year 2 on PS4 I cross saved and can not access that content on Steam do I need to buy my ♥♥♥♥ again or did I make a mistake?

You can definitely still buy it as it includes a raid, dungeon, exotic quests, and access to year 2 exotics.

Wow that's garbage. So I they want me to buy the same stuff I already bought. Nice.

"They" don't, Valve wants you purchase a software license for their platform regardless of you buying it on a different platform.

Yea, I am sure they cry about it on a mattress made of money.

Just saying, it'd be like buying a movie ticket for one theater and then taking it to another movie theater and expecting them to accept it. Does it suck for the customer to need to buy it again? Sure but as far as steam is concerned its your first time for them.

I am voting with my wallet on this one. I reinstalled for some fun, and I learn they stole content from me that they are forcing me to buy back, and I don't even get all of the content I already paid for because it's "vaulted." No ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ way, man. Nah. Not doing it. I already uninstalled. Cancer.

Good
The filter does its job again.

Understandable, bye.

I was in the same boat as you man, originally played on PS4, had some dlc, then switched to PC, bought some dlc, more came out, I quit for many months and months, then all the sudden I decided to buy the remaining DLC I needed ( which was Beyond Light and Witch queen) total was 44$ basically since both were on sale. If you have played since the good old D1 days, and have friends that play this, It's well worth to get back into on pc.

There are virtually no games, anywhere, at all, that give you full cross-platform content. If you buy a game on one platform, you have a license for that platform only. I can’t even think of one game that does it differently off the top of my head.

There are games that can get around it with in game purchases like destiny 2 already does with seasons and other silver unlocks.

People in this thread unironically defending ♥♥♥♥♥♥ business practices. They literally stole content from me, that I purchased. The forsaken campaign, the zone included are removed from the game. Before I learned this it was a "Maybe I will get back into it." Now it's a solid hell no. They can Vault deez nuts.
