We have been doing live service and subscriptions for a couple years now and it includes Sims 3 and 4. It is not like it used to be. Steam has been doing it for ages. I know I also play several Steam games and all are single player. No MMO's. You can pretty much play any game on Origin via this method. Things have changed and are no longer like WOW or Sims online.

Yes. Maybe they do. But Sims 3 isn’t a live service and Sims 4 has only few things which are inspired from real live services.
I agree that TS4 is partly a live service because it also has free updates besides all those paid expansions which EA makes and attempt to sell to us. But nevertheless EA never mentions the Sims games when EA is talking about live services. Only online games with a multiplayer part (and sometimes with a single player part too like in The Crew) are mentioned and other game companies do the same.
