Let me make sure I understand...

So you're saying DLC that they plan on releasing later (meaning adding new content that is not done when the game is released) is a microtransaction? That doesn't make any sense. That's like saying Brood War was a microtransaction for Starcraft. I don't think you'll find anyone that agrees that Brood War made Starcraft worse because it wasn't included when the game came out. If the DLC introduces new elements or content that is fun into a game that was already fun and feature rich it is an expansion not just money-grubbing.
