Have You Ever Criticized A Game/ Gaming Service Without Ever Trying It?

So what Sony is doing is even worse.

Nope. Not sure how you came to that conclusion to be honest. EAA in itself is fine, but I'm not too comfortable with the idea of a publisher having it's own subscription service. I say that because what happens when Ubisoft, Square, Activision, Capcom, ect. decide to launch their own services? What happens when EA decides that EA Acess subscribers should get exlusive content for games? What happens when the rest of the publishers follow suit? What happens to someone who loves game from EA, Capcom, and Activision and they each want $5 a month from you so you don't miss out on stuff?

It's the precedent that EA Acess sets that is bothersome.

You mean like how Sony (and MS) pay for exclusive content from third party developers?

It seems to me Sony and MS are the bad trendsetters here. Locking online play behind a paywall is what makes them worse.
