The email did accomplish one semi-good thing. It reminded me I have an EA acoount. No idea how I forgot, since I need it for my Dragon Age DLC, but I did.

Origin offers nothing interesting compared to Steam, gives no good reason to install
But the annoying thing is that they do...

They hold the Battlefield and Mass Effect series to ransom, and I have to use their pointless online service if I ever want to see them again.
I say take the hit, ditch the games even if it hurts. Just not worth it with Origin ._.

Well... I haven't actually heard anything bad about it. I just think it will be a completely pointless failure like Games For Windows (or whichever combination of words it was that eventually became the name of the Windows version of Xbox Live) and no-one will use it unless they have to. Two reasons:

1. Steam practically has a monopoly and people like using it already.
2. It's only going to sell EA games.

Really, the only reason I have not to use it is that I think EA is run by a load of dickbags.
