It depends a lot on how it's implemented. I've seen rumors of Rene being "free-to-enter". If it is, I'd much rather have a small subscription fee to get access to all the extra content than dealing with micro transactions. However, if they added a subscription fee on top of paying for packs, that would be absolutely excessive to me, especially if they keep the same rate (and quality) of releasing new paid content. I'm a collector and get almost everything, so I figure a subscription-based system would come up to about the same, but I know it would be terrible for players who don't normally get all the content and who still play a little bit every month. While a subscription would give players leverage against bad game maintenance (unsubscribe when the game is broken), I'm also worried about what it would mean in the long run, if they ever decide to leave one sims game for another and stop maintenance on the "old" one (which they hopefully wouldn't need to do or could then make the game free, but I'm not that convinced when it comes to EA and money...)
