So I just downloaded Origin and Saw all the Sales and Stuff going on but then found Origin Access. So What I'm Curious about is that If I pay the 30 Dollars for the Year, I get access to everything already there. But Like lets say the Battlefield 5 comes out, Will I be able to play that once it launches? I'm pretty Sure I can but I don't want to pay then find Out I have to pay another 60 dollars on a new Game.

So I am At a Decision. And I don't really know what to do because there are 3 Options.  

 

Option 1- Buy Origin Access Premium once it comes out

- I can Buy this for 100 USD a year, and get all of the EA Games, as soon as they come out (I'm Mainly looking at Battlefield V, and Anthem) and I get all the other games like Battlefront 2, Titanfall 2, Battlefield 1, Crysis 3, Fifa, Need for Speed and Sims and others and I get all of that. 

 

Option 2- Buy Origin Access Basic

- I Can Buy Origin Access basic for 30 USD and I get access to the games in the Vault, but then I Have to wait for games like Battlefield V and Battlefront 2 to be added to the Vault. 

- But its so much Cheaper than Premium.

 

Option 3- Just Buy The Games

- Like all of the Games are really cheap Right now so I can buy them all for maybe 60-70 Dollars. But then once BF5 and Anthem and Fifa 19 come out I have to pay the 60 Dollars for all of those.

 

So my Question is which would You choose? I want Option 1 but it just seems like a Fair bit of Money but a Good Value but I am also 15 so Its hard for me to make all of that Money Back and make sure I can stay for the Next Year.

I HIGHLY doubt that the 100 USD a Year will net you every single game from them. There will be fine print preventing you from getting certain titles. Be very careful what you agree to

Since you asked.... none of them, because Origin. However, realistically speaking this all depends on how much you play games. If you have a ton of time, makes sense to get the bigger sub, where as the lower subscription is better for those with less time who still want to play all EA games ... eventually. Option 3 is for those who are die hard fans of one series of games.

There's approximately a one year lag on popular games... sometimes a bit longer. I bought it last august and I've yet to play a single game thoroughly. I tested our Mass Effect 4, played BF1 for an hour, and that's about it. I still think it's good value if you want to play the games that available at this time.
