You don't actually need to own an item to have an opinion on a feature.  I don't have an XB1 yet, and when I get it I don't plan on getting EA Access.  My reasoning is simple.  I only really care about 2 of EA's current franchises: Dragon Age and Mass Effect.  When I buy them it will be on PS4 as it is the more capable hardware.  The 6 bucks I save per game every 2 years or so (on average based on the releases) isn't worth the 30 bucks a year for the largely annual franchises that I don't play anyway and the early access to them.

Now, if EA puts out a few more compelling games for me and the savings become better than 3 bucks a year for me?  Great, I re-evaluate.  See how that works?  :p

So you dont know Dragon Age will be added to the vault later this summer(probably August) according EA's announcement around E3?

I tend to purchase the games I want at the time they are released.  So for me the 6 months to a year later additions aren't worthwhile.  Since I am current on the series I am interested in from the company there is no appeal in the "backlog" from it either.  As I said, the day one purchasing doesn't save me enough money to cover more than 10% of the cost of the service per year.  To me that isn't a valuable service.  The more they expand on it the more likely I will be to get it.  That expansion will need to be more than annual sports franchises, shooter games, and the series I already play though.
