No that is definitely not true. Fans who have been waiting for ME3 for months are seriously boycotting the game over this, because if this kind of business model is going to take hold, you will see a trend where you will get less and less content in the released main game, and you will get more of the asian "keep buying addons" style of games. It is a cashcow, plain and simple. Most games with some notable exceptions are way too short anyway. Paying for cosmetic DLC is fine as it doesn't affect the gameplay, buying DLC where the game gets so unbalanced and therefore way too easy is something that already doesn't sit right with me, but this is just moneygrabbing for the sake of moneygrabbing.
As for the release of a DLC because it couldn't be pressed on media in time for release, I could sort of get behind that, but there is no reason to sell the material as a whole in a digital distribution like steam.
