So I'll probably get Mass Effect Legendary Edition at some point. What's it like to play EA games on Steam these days? Is it kinda like it is with Ubisoft titles and Uplay? More involved? Less? Are the games accessible via both clients?

Just wondering which client to buy it on.

I don't think there's any difference other than requiring different apps to launch to the game. Ever since EA went back to Steam most games don't require Origin to run them.

Care to clarify this a bit? I just checked a few EA games that came to mind (namely Mass Effect 3, Burnout Paradise, FIFA 21, and Battlefield V), and all of them say this: 'Incorporates 3rd-party DRM: EA on-line activation and Origin client software installation and background use required.' That sounds an awful lot like an Origin requirement to me.
