I played (and am still playing) TLOU multi-player, not "a lot" but enough to know the weapons and skills. I even bought some of these "pay to win" DLCs. I think that I used each of them once. That's all. I still use one skill sometimes in one of my builds, but that's it. It's not "pay to win", because it's balanced (you have 13 points for a build and each weapon you choose cost points) and is not really worth it, except if you like the playstyle of a weapon. If not, you can keep the base weapons and skill, and you won't be weaker than the others. I can use a lot of different weapons and skills, but at the end, I always come back to my bow and stealth (base weapon and skill IIRC). It just depends on what you like, it has nothing to do with power or balance. Yes, it would be better if everything was free, but in this case there wouldn't be any developer to manage this, or we should buy a lot of hats to cover the costs. If some people want to pay a rifle shooting 4 bullets in a row instead of 3 but at the price of 1 normal rifle plus another weapon or skill, I won't blame them.
EDIT : Didn't Mario Kart sell a DLC with new races and modes, and maybe even new karts and characters ? What a shame...

I'm not the authority but that's one of the rare examples of DLC done right! Along with some of the SFIV stuff (not the costumes) and a few other times (ie GTA IV), that MK8 DLC doesn't even feel like DLC. Maybe the Uncharted 4 stuff will be in that level. If so, I won't complain.
Hey, I'm not complaining now! I only play SP in this series. I'll take a "wait and see" approach.
