Brainstorming how a Sims Subscription Model could work

I'd rather pay more to pay for exactly what I want, when I want then be tied into any kind of subscription service. Any game that has a subscription service, even if it is opt-in rather than required also pretty much always has some kind of content that is exclusively available to subscribers. Which ultimately makes me feel pressured to subscribe. My solution is to not play those games at all.

So, I hope this is not the direction they go with the franchise.
