Me not buying the game at launch makes no difference to my argument. "You don't have to buy it" or "it's just an option" doesn't shift the fact that they're selling an anemic and incomplete game at launch. If the game doesn't have a good review launch, it'll have no legs. If it gets bombed at launch for having no content, where will the legs come from exactly? Will review sites update their reviews every time free content comes out? Of course not, because not one will care by that point.
This game is going to sell well enough at launch and fall straight off right after once word gets out that it's a shell with nothing in it. Like Titanfall, people won't line up in droves once the content finally is up to snuff.
The game deserves even more of a shit storm than it's getting, and I called that months ago.

I disagree with the point that this is a bad strategy on principle.
As for how it will affect sales and reviews, I don't really know. We will see, however, I feel that this is a strategy that has the potential to be good for everybody, including those who buy the game on launch day

Silly Mario Kart, it should have launched with 5 race tracks!
Exactly how will the community get split off by adding more maps at launch? I can somewhat understand the multiplayer modes (although I still think it's not a good idea), but maps?
