I really don't have a problem with DLC because the developer isn't forcing you to buy the content as enticing as it might be. My problem is the sheer amount of content here and from what I understand skins aren't purely cosmetic they change up the powers and loadout of the Hunter class they are designed for.
If what I say matters, I think they should have gone the F2P route that some MMO's are doing. You do have the free version at launch, but have "packs" that include different DLC bundled with a more expensive version of the game. So if you just download the "free version" you would get one version of each Hunter and one Monster, but if you were pay $60 you would get the bundle they are showing off for retail. The upside of this is it would expose the game to more people, for right now I am avoiding buying it because it doesn't look like something I would enjoy, but if I could play for free I would give it a try.
