Since I have a year of EA Origin Premier (blame drunken enthusiasm for Battlefield V for that genious purchase) - I tried Anthem for a couple of hours. The flying is fun, but the shooting is just "ok". I've loved BioWare storytelling in the past, but this game's story really isn't grabbing me in any way.
Also - the way it tries to force multiplayer is a turnoff. I don't have any RL friends that play this kind of game, and I've basically never had a good time playing with random people in any game like this ever. Partly because I'm kinda bad at this type of game - and don't want to mess up other people's playtime, and partly because I'm a fairly anxious dude. I have the same problem in games like Apex Legends.
I hope BioWare gets the resources to improve the game - It's not an unsalvageable mess like ME:A.
