Extensions (free ones, at that) to a, for the most part, completed game are fine.
That's why things like DLC "After Episodes" (post story add-on content) are okay, even if they cost money.
Because regardless of if you play it or not, that doesn't hinder your experience in the actual game.
Here's another ex.
Let's say swimming wasn't included in FFXV, but a DLC update comes out for it.
1.) The update is automatic/free to download. Good DLC.
2.) The update costs $5.99. Bad DLC.
Ex. 1 is good because you have the option to acquire a gameplay element that more or less should have already been in-game.
Ex. 2 is bad because if you don't spend the extra money, you miss out on an entire element of the gameplay that should have already been in-game.

No, the point is that DLC is a problem when the content of that DLC is something that should have already been in-game, AND it costs money. You're paying for something that you should have already gotten.
Patch fixes are different. Those are always free. If you had to pay to fix an error, the result of developer oversight, the same problem would apply.

That's what I was thinking too. Plus, how much of a priority could Dissidia's story possibly have been? If I remember correctly (and I might not, I played Dissidia years ago) the story was a typical "throw 'em all into a time vortex" type thing, or something similar. Basically just one giant excuse plot to get all the characters together. Can't speak for 012 since I only played the first.
You find one of Noctis' Phantom Swords and then BOOM Gilgamesh fight. Win, and you get the Excalipoor Phantom Sword.
I wouldn't be surprised, they seem to have the right motifs to allow him to have some kind of involvement in the game (outside of optional superboss, maybe.) and have it not feel... "forced"
This (Dissidia?) looks like the pose Prompto is doing.
