Anthem VIP demo offers premium members first access to the game for three days. The experience was different for all, some were positive with the amazing new Universe of Anthem, the super-advanced Javelin suits and more, while some players were dangling between errors and performance. Next is Open Demo, Bioware is letting the whole world to test Anthem for free for a limited three day period (Feb 1 to Feb 3).
Kind of a risk for Bioware, but it is sure that Anthem Full Game is different than VIP and Open Demo. Developers are able to gather enough advance information associated with bugs and error that will make the Full Game much more stable.
Microtransactions it the second big thing, EA has a reputation of keeping the price of items pretty high that requires hours of grinding and on the other side if you are ready to spare some hard cash you get it unlocked instantly. It fumes gamers who paid for the game and later spending hours for unlocking. Hope EA will balance this, some Youtube videos had started already pointing towards this issue.

This is your chance to test Anthem during the Open Demo but hope EA has resolved the server and other bug-related issues. This time more players will be joining the game including many VIP Demo players. The issue with Micro-transaction will be worse for Standard Edition buyers who will plan to order this on the final release day. They have access with limited features, what do you think can EA will be able to balance the paid items with playable hours?
