      I wouldn’t trust EA not to skip a chance to lie. They’re probably going to make their “values” even more subhuman.

    So EA had poor values before and will continue to have poor values in the future. Got it.

    They all value money over everything else, so that tracks.

    Good news, everyone! EA are still going to be profiteering shitbags who nickle and dime customers with season passes and loot boxes for content that already exists in the code.

      They must have dismembered the witnesses too. Knowing EA, they sold the organs in loot boxes.

    Thats not a good sign. I’m choosing to take that as EAs values were already so bad that nothing is going to change after being taken over by a trump Saudi investment firm.

      I’m choosing to read it as “we only bought it to get kernel-level access to millions of computers. Don’t worry about why we want that.”

    It’s fitting that EA now belongs to a despotic regime and the spoiled son-in-law of a despot. It couldn’t be more telling.

    I won’t be buying anything from them anymore.

      funny how I have not bought any of their games for a long time now, since it’s mostly slop anyways nowadays

        That’s true, but now it’s also autocrat slop, which in my opinion disqualifies this company once and for all.

    So you’ll continue being a money sucking ghoul who infects my hobby with more and more micro transactions for things that should have been shipped with the game in the first place?

    Phew, I was worried there for a sec I might have to credit SA or a fucking Kushner for fixing one of the shittiest publishers in gaming, nice to know they can remain on “pirate if it looks good” list.
