You have to go on the Anthem store page in Origin and select "Try it first".

Yeah, their store has some flaws w/ usability. It was already marked as a favorite so I was only getting that popover from the right that doesn't have those options and no obvious way to go to the store page.

Haha they covered themselves there didn’t they. Hey so the entire game you demo isn’t representative of anything in the game which you will probably think sucks ass and oh hey it’s an old build too!

Lol good lord.

Let me know if I read that tweet wrong.

i see your point... but they are basically just expanding on what every other demo points out as well. "Not representative of final product"

Basically, we made the game easier while hiding the grind and we also hid the microtransactions.

Download ended up at 43 GB. The launch screen looks nice...

Oh good god, not staggered release dates again.

Fuckin' EA could fuck up selling you water in the middle of the desert.

This has been the standard for years at this point.

Beta's and Demos are never representative of the final product. They need these written notifications because people are fucking stupid.

Have Origins Access Premier, and it tells me the game is included with my sub, but I have no try it now button? Tried removing it from my library, and still nothing when I go back to the game in the Vault. Any ideas?

In Origin, go to Browse Games -> Anthem -> Anthem. It's the store page to buy the game where you'll find the Try it now button.

Got it. Went into my game library on the Origin website, and the Try it First button was there. Added it and then clicked on Download with Origin.

Origin, making the act of even purchasing a game a chore.
