To get it out of the way, yes, the DLC model for this game is the epitome of what is wrong with gaming right now.
Now that I've gotten that out of the way, the game is a ton of fun to play with a group of friends. The only issue I have is that the Wraith is completely overpowered still. Unless it gets nerfed a bit, it's the only monster that you're ever going to see once people unlock it. Yes, it is that much better than the other monsters, and it's definitely a big issue for the game, IMO.
Wraith is powerful, but I wouldn't declare it OP. And it was noticeably toned down from the open beta of a few weeks ago where it was definitely OP. I think Turtle Rock is basing Wraith v. Hunter balance on reasonably upgraded hunters, and most people aren't really there yet. So starter-hunters vs a decked out Wraith probably isn't going to seem fair. Fear not, they WILL rebalance if they notice a disproportionate percentage of Wraiths in their backend stats.
That said, first time I saw Wraith's "Super Nova" ability in action, I was like O_O "That's SATAN". Seriously, I wish I could find a gif, because this screenshot doesn't do it justice. Its insane.
