I fucking despise Electronic Arts with every fiber of my being. I genuinely struggle to think of another publisher that has done as much damage to the gaming industry as EA has. The amount of talent they've wasted, the legendary studios they've shut down, the beloved franchises they've run into the ground, all while squeezing every last penny out of their customers, is genuinely fucking depressing.
These motherfuckers have bought some of the most talented studios in the industry, milked them for whatever they're worth, and then thrown them in the trash the moment they stopped being profitable enough. They took studios with actual passion, creativity, and talented people behind them and turned them into corporate zombies chasing trends, microtransactions, and quarterly profits. And when things inevitably went wrong, it was the developers who lost their jobs while the executives walked away just fine.
I swear to God, I genuinely hope EA goes bankrupt tomorrow. I want to see them lose everything they've spent decades building, not because I want the people working there to suffer, but because I'm so fucking tired of watching a company with that much money and influence repeatedly screw over the very industry that made it successful in the first place.
And the most depressing part? None of it fucking matters. FIFA will keep selling like crazy, people will keep throwing money at Ultimate Team, and EA will continue making billions regardless of how many studios they shut down or how many franchises they ruin. You could write a fucking essay about everything wrong with this company, and tomorrow millions of people would still happily hand them their money. It's honestly infuriating.

From what I've heard and seen, that doesn't seem to be the case for bioware. EA has been bankrolling their failures for over a decade at this point, I'm surprised they weren't shut down the moment Veilguard flopped, but a whole two years after.
On top of that, if ANY of the shit about Anthem's development is true, then Bioware is damn near wholly responsible for their own downfall. Emphasis on damn NEAR
Quick Google search will tell you that the entire production processed was made a complete nightmare because of corporate BS, live service BS, high ranking people in the company constantly getting taken off the project.
I mean, the live service shit is enough. They were designing a game to be an online multiplayer game, EA saw Star wars sales half way through development, and made them change course. It's literally EA's fault. No clue why you're simping for them.
Where is your link? I have no notification 😂. I won't lie, I'm going off what I read, and what I looked up, without posting links... But you just went STRAIGHT to "you're a LLM!!!" and just want to talk about links I can't see on this thread, and since I'm not a LLM, I am too lazy too search for it. IDC what you say 😂
Wow you legit are an AI. Wish the mods would ban these fucks. I asked YOU for a link to your CLAIM. Either you can't read or your 5% hallucination rate kicked in XD
