“Early development” on mass effect is wild to say for a game they announced 6 years ago. Absolutely ridiculous that in 6 years they never made progress on the game. Utterly insane.
Ya know what, I’m not even mad. Fuck it. Hopefully ea and its new owners sell off IP to get some cash back and someone who gives a damn can make the next game
Add American McGee's Alice to the list. I'll never forgive EA what they did to the man, they crushed his spirit so hard he basically dropped anything related to videogames.
I think they're just happy with sticking to Battlefield as their military FPS IP. Why invest in MoH when it would just steal sales from their own game? And why sell that famous IP to another publisher when it would also be used make a Battlefield competitor?
At least there's still lots of options for military shooters even if it would be nice to have a new MoH game. Other IPs like Mass Effect, Dead Space, or SimCity have fewer direct alternatives.
Titanfall. Mirror’s Edge. Burnout. Dead Space. Absolute legends left in the dust for the sake of profit. RIP to Pandemic, Visceral, Criterion and the like. Fuck EA
I don’t fully understand why they don’t. Some of these franchises have enough hype that they could turn a profit if they didn’t drag out development for a decade and kept the vision relatively modest. You’d think some studios would pay decent $$ for licensing rights, alone.
