I actually just realized this was even being discussed. I was rather shocked to learn a couple of packs were included but it's a 10 dollar pack and a 20 dollar pack and the access is 14.99 a month... As a Sim player i m only interested in Sims i use Origin for no other reason to be honest so having said that why am i going to pay 15 bucks a month for 2 packs i can easily purchase in 2 months using the money i would have spent on the monthly fee? 5 bucks more than the monthly fee i can buy dine out and the next month for 10 dollars of the 15 you charge i can buy kids room stuff and still have 5 bucks left over toward the next one. This makes no sense to me. Include the 40.00 game expansions and all future expansions and the 15 dollar monthly fee might be worth it. I actually purchased the game so i could play it with or without the origin access account, i am sure many others have as well. So you probably aren't gonna see a lot of 15 dollar monthly access subs if they don't make sense and in this case it doesn't. I'd pay for a Sims access plan where it's all Sims all expansions etc... Separate from the other access subs...Charge like 15 bucks a month and get access to everything sims 3 and 4 plus all DLC and extra content.... That would bring in way more money than individual sales..Just a thought.. But for now i will just continue to purchase the packs as i can afford them.

@JanePhoenix@Oh it certainly does make sense for others but I specifically stated for me personally and as a Sims player only the fact that only two packs are included make no sense for people when they are basically the price of the sub. Around 30 bucks for the two packs... We aren't talking about the 5 dollar a month sub but the 15 dollar one. For Sims that doesn't make sense .Not only that, with Sims it makes better sense to buy the game and packs so you can use them even without the paid membership. This way if you can't afford it because life you can still use your game and packs. It would make bettersense if more was offered was the point I was making. For just two I, like I am sure many others won't pay that amount it isn't worth it. Again a Sims access plan would be amazing.

This is a bit depressing. Been an Origin member for a while with a pretty decent catalog, wanted to pick up Premiere for Sims 4 (I have Sims 3 on that "S" platform) but with no actual access to all of the expansions, it seems misleading. Thank you everyone for the research.

Wish I would have saw this post before I subscribed to origin premium. How hard is it for EA to provide a clear list of what Games and Expansions are included in the service? It is very misleading. I've had the service for 4 days and I am just now recognizing that none of the expansions are included. Is it too late to get a refund as I feel I was misinformed and this was crucial to my purchase.
