The nice thing about that model is that you can pick and choose which expansions to get. Stellaris is my "gap game" that I play when there's nothing new that I'm interested in, so I return to it every couple of months. There have generally been a few new DLCs released between my runs through it; some of them are interesting to me, and some aren't. I get what's interesting, and even if there's nothing new that I want, I still benefit from new versions and mechanical updates. Making the DLCs a la carte like that means that they have to deliver enough new content to make them look worth it. I can't imagine just paying a flat monthly fee to mostly get cosmetics and dogshit new "missions" or whatever.
