I'm hyped for it because I'm a huge Fire Emblem fan, loved Awakening, and the new story looks interesting to me. I have no issue buying DLC for a franchise I like (though the limited edition version includes that anyway). The only issue I really have is the lack of Japanese audio, which, while disappointing, isn't nearly enough to dissuade me from picking the game up.
I see a lot of people compare it to Sacred Stones (FE8), though I feel the Zelda: Oracle games are a more fitting comparison. The games will share lots of similarities, and need to connected to get the full story, but both stand alone as individual games in their own right. If people don't like the idea, they can vote with their wallets...I just know I'm stoked to have two new entries in my favorite franchise.
Also, it's already been said, but Awakening only had free DLC for early adopters, and only consisted of the bonus maps, which I believe Fates will be doing as well.
