This is honestly the first time I haven't really felt hyped towards an expansion announcement; At least I finally feel at peace just letting my house get auto-demo'd.
If we could reasonably expect ingenuity among them, I'd have no problem with either seeing further development. I do think Exploratory Missions are fundamentally more efficient, iconic, and MMO-like content models, but hey. /shrug

My issue is that I don't think we can reasonably expect any significant interesting improvements to or ingenuity in those models. Or even in general...
