So lets break this down.  The Season pass cost 90+ bones give or take a few bucks.  It gives you 2 characters and 62 costumes.  Its said that you can purchase each character for 5 bones apiece.  So lets say 10 bucks for the 2 characters and you are covered for Online rank match play without having to shell out 90 bucks or more.  I am not sure if I see a problem here.  Do you really need those 62 costumes.

In the middle of the bad press of the season pass, I never even knew you could get those characters separately.  which means, you're paying 80 dollars for 65 costumes.  What can I say other than I refuse to support a company that does this?  It's crazy.

The base game already comes with 15 costumes for each character. That is more than enough!

That's subjective.  There's is no excuse and it's scary that you'd come to defense of a company over the dollar of the consumer.  Especially when there's this thing called economic equilibrium which benefits both the business and consumer, but in this case, has been thrown completely out the window.  I don't want to see this practice continuously tried elsewhere.  But, one day, you'll see this:

"While we are extremely grateful to our most dedicated of fans buying every bit of our game's content, you're not supposed to buy everything. You buy what you uniquely want. It's a benefit because not only is it not pay to win, you're not going to see too many people using the same DLC as you, keeping the game looking fresh."

Games are going to become a mini-service, released as $60 betas at this rate.

You keep saying there is no excuse but you have absolutely no ideal the effort involved in creating the extra content.  62 costumes seems like a hell of a lot of costumes.  Its not like the main game is missing in this department.  Either way, I understand you not willing to purchase the season pass because of the price but then again its not like the season pass is giving you nothing.  I just wonder if its more relisted then anything else to have a season pass at that cost even if it has all of those costumes.  Its not priced for the average gamer but as long as you have the choice to purchase the characters and the costume you want, still not see the issue.
