I would rather buy it again or have the update/dlc released after some sort of community milestone in buying and giving away copies.

I really like the fact that its all one complete game and also every gaming person should have a copy, regardless if they can personally afford it.

Anything that is worked on for that long is fair game for versioning. It used to be that you bought a version of a software and it was yours for life, but if you wanted the new fancy stuff, you had to buy the new version.

Now it's either a subscription or an "app" model, how long can a developer continue to support a 3€ one-time-buy app with new features? Buyers run out sooner or later.

Go the Terraria route and sell merchandise!
