Id contact them if i were you, asking for clarification and possibly a refund.

I've sent them an email, not too hopeful I'll get any information out of them about their pricing model going forward though.

Edit: They replied but they just gave a copy and pasted statement from the press release that Designer V2 users will own in perpetuity, nothing regarding future plans.

I too wrote to them. This is their reply

Nothing changes. We will continue to sell the apps as a single payment and you’ll continue to get regular free updates. If anything, this will enable us to introduce bigger updates, faster.

That's certainly a more hopeful response. Fingers crossed they keep to their word with V3 too.
