Destiny 2: Forsaken will now include the previous two expansions for new buyers
Players will no longer need to buy an expansion pass to access all the Destiny 2 post-launch content.
Bungie and Activision have made it easier for new or returning Destiny 2 players to experience the game’s post-launch content. Starting October 16, players who buy the Forsaken expansion pack will also receive the previous two expansions, Warmind and Curse of Osiris. Previously, Destiny 2 players who wanted access to the complete post-launch content were required to purchase a separate expansion pass.
Bungie made this move to streamline the process of playing the game. It helps newer players join parties without having to first determine which pieces of content must be purchased for the group to be compatible with each other.
Destiny 2 veterans who already own and play the Forsaken expansion will be given some bonus items as a reward for their loyalty and commitment to the franchise. The in-game items will arrive some time in December and will include the Tiger Stripe Black Shader and Veterans Nameplate emblem. A pair of exotic emotes and some consumables will round out the digital gift basket that Bungie is bestowing early Forsaken owners.
New or veteran Forsaken players will be able to find everything they need to succeed by looking through our extensive guides to Destiny 2: Forsaken.

I could see the game (or whatever comes next) moving towards subscription in the next few years

It's always been a subscription game in practice. I still have flashbacks to when Bungie actually removed Crucible features for D1 (possibly D2 as well) if you didn't buy the DLC every time. You went from having your pick of multiplayer modes to a randomized "classic" mode. I believe Bungie is better about that now, but still... it was a passive-aggressive way of making Destiny a subscription game.
