Basically the title, I decided to forgo a poll since its not really A or B or C. Obviously we only have a basic outline of the content so far, but what are your initial impressions?
Im a bit worried about community fragmentation myself, hopefully the expansions are huge but what people will perceive to be a couple $20 map packs will be a hard sell. People not willing or able to pony up the cash will split the playerbase, which just pushes people to the next game. I dont mind paying a $100 for a game that keeps me interested for two years, but I know im in the minority on that one.

For me, I say just skip the Expansion Pass and go straight for the Limited Edition. It's $5 more for a lot more content. And while, yes, the Expansion Pass is a definite money making gimmick, they can't have an MMO with dedicated support and updates without a way to continue making money off of it. Micro-transactions would either unbalance the game or just be a money pit for naive beginners just get a leg up for about 5 minutes. Also, cosmetic M-ts would kind of defeat the purpose of the armor system that is already in place.
