So it should. Because there isn't enough game for the asking price, simple as that.
Same thing went for Halo 5, for a Halo game it featured less than it's predecessors (I.E. No Forge, not many maps etc'), so the updates had better be free.
Still zero need for Microtransactions other than it being a cash grab... It also leaves room for Microtransactions to be expanded upon in future patches so that it plays a larger role in the game.

Microtransactions are all cosmetic (you should know if you played the game. New characters, game modes, and maps are coming free of charge. The price point actually prevents hackers, and unless you plan to play a really old game, overwatch is the only one of its kind right now.

It's still a money grab

I'd rather call it a lazy gamer grab. Because it prays on peoples will power. Seriously. Overwatch is just TF2 flopped. TF2 = The games free, but you can buy the optional gear to support it. Overwatch = The game is pay, but the games updates will be free. And, TF2 is even a smaller game than Overwatch. Ofcourse that should be free. I got bored with jsut 5 characters. Also, Overwatch's money goes towards the CGI animations, the characters backstories, and comics. Granted these should be avalible from the games menu. Which I bet they will eventually add in. But that's extra work too. Do any of the TF2 characters have names?
