A big selling point of SFV was that all DLC was technically free (Technically because you have to earn it via in game currency. However, considering that, prior to DLC being a common thing, unlocking characters in fighting games was basically hours of grinding through either impossibly difficult modes or winning battles to get points to unlock them, it's not really them holding out on you).

For the X-Men and FF being DLC, I don't mind. If it means fewer odds of running into the cheese tastic Dr. Doom online, then I'm all for it. Fuck that character. Cheap ass piece of shit.
I'm more curious if we'll actually get the FF, though. I'd much rather them bring back Super Skrull and add the Silver Surfer (How he'll fight with his long board, I dunno).

Concerning the X-Men, I have to admit: I'm not really that broken up. Because the franchise started with an X-Men fighter, and the first crossover was X-Men vs SF, the roster has always been bloated by them. Deadpool would be a big loss, though, and no amount of Gwenpool would fill that void.
