Have you bought any DLC for Humble Monthly games?
I've never had a problem with DLC. If I like a game, I'll get it. If I want more of the game, I'll get the DLC, too.
If houses were sold with optional "bathroom" DLC, I might actually worry about it.
But it's just games.
Edit: and yes, I've bought DLC for one or two Humble Monthly games.

I've never subscribed it because I'm constantly without money! Sometimes I was tempted to get one, especially the Pillars of Eternity one, but I noticed the dlc thing, too.

I don't usually even activate a base key, if at the point I get it, there is already such DLC which I consider a part of game in its form of delivering the full gaming experience (usually DLCs adding to mechanics or varieties of any other in-game options, 'chapters' and parts of whole story etc.)
But on the other hand I can ignore most 'incomplete games' for virtually any time period, being content with such an outcome that if there will not be a decent deal for dlc/complete, I may not want to play the game later at all. Complete editions are usually more polished anyway, state-of-the-art for the particular title, and I want the very best <3
Then, there is a lot of 'complete things' exist in the world to do meanwhile. I like an approach when you could buy a book/game/anything and it is a complete thing
In my opinion, not providing an adequate deal for the whole game, or not producing the whole game at the time of publishing (making some season passes with promises) and prolonging the process for years is a real killer for mediocre games. Months and years later when game is finally produced, mediocrity will not survive competition with better quality old games, nor completion with newer promising games on novelty department. I don't understand how bold some devs are, thinking that their future DLCs which are not yet developed, are worthy paying anything. In fact they want to get payment for future work in advance and not so rarely money 'disappears' in the middle.
But a lot of devs are doing this right now, so apparently my opinion is wrong and gamers gladly buy these DLCs :3 Not that it matters much for me personally, but I'd like to see this changing back to paradigm of paying for concrete, final result.
There are of course exceptions, and on top of that if DLC is not essential to play base game, and game turned to be great, then additional campaigns/expansions are welcome if they seem as fun.

Is it just my impression or games in Humble Monthly are selected to increase sales of DLC?
The last one I've bought is "The White March Expansion Pass" for "Pillars of Eternity" (awesome game).
