Rumoured SDX Sleepwear Set

EA could have avoided this entire fiasco if they had simply begun their "leaking" (marketing) of the sleepwear set as being exclusive to console EA Play members. Then, instead of looking like money grubbing jerks trying to lure people into buying a subscription they don't want to get content they might want (locked behind a paywall), they could have looked like a company rewarding a group of console players for subscribing to EA Play (giving loyal subscribers a freebie).

Perhaps they should take that into consideration the next time they want to pull a similar marketing stunt so they don't tick off their players.

You are probably right @RPGTabbycat .

I was completely unaware of all such leaks until reading this forum thread. Which informed me that... console has a paid subscription option, and that subscription comes with random little freebies sometimes. Interesting info. Not a big deal.

(Personally, I decide on purchases based on what the thing is at the time that I purchase it. Whether I'm buying a thing outright, or buying a subscription. I don't assume that I'm going to get all kinds of freebies unless there's a reward system included in the purchase. But, if freebies/rewards seemed to be offered in the marketing, then they turned out to not exist, or they only existed if you bought this other thing over here and not the thing initially advertised, that's more of a problem.)
