Right…
They’re both aligned on fucking over people for profit.
EA has no values, because they’re a soulless, shit hole company, so they’re not lying (this time), I guess.
I wouldn’t trust EA not to skip a chance to lie. They’re probably going to make their “values” even more subhuman.
I believe that. EA didn’t have values before and will continue to not have them now.
“Our values have always been terrible. Expect no change.”
Even if true not particularly encouraging
They all value money over everything else, so that tracks.
Can’t change what doesn’t exist
So EA had poor values before and will continue to have poor values in the future. Got it.
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, just the same soulless cash grabs as usual going forward?
Soulless cash grab with a healthy veneer of jingoism and plenty of toxic masculinity.
You’ll play your Muscle Man Beats Up The Evil Foreigners game, you’ll pay top dollar for it, and if you’re lucky you’ll get a loot box with a Trump/MBS NFT in it.
Hey, at least EA has not had a journalist dismembered… yet.
They must have dismembered the witnesses too. Knowing EA, they sold the organs in loot boxes.
Not gonna lie, I was pretty stoked for Battlefield 6. Haven’t played one since 3 and all my friends were gonna get it. Guess I’ll just go fuck myself and keeping playing Overwatch or something.
I played the beta weekends. I can assure you anything fun will be nerfed, because all the fun stuff was what the sweaty basement boys were complaining about the most. You’re not going to miss out on much of the final product.
I played it too and I 100% agree. However, I feel like it’s always a good thing to keep in mind that the best time to play an online shooter is when it first comes out. That way you get to at least have fun before all the casual people move on to other games and the sweaty people are the only ones left. My friends convinced me to try Fortnite just a couple years ago and all that happened was I got stomped every match and was like “this is fun for you guys?” I’ve been playing Overwatch since release and it’s basically impossible to get a match I’d consider “fun,” so to speak. I just wanted to get in on the fun for Battlefield before it turned into all sweats. Now I’d prefer to just avoid it all together.

As an enthusiastic but inept gamer with overactive sweat glands, I object to being lumped in with the overcompetitive fun killers! 😁
Tbf though, I don’t even play shooters in the first place. Unless you (wrongly) count the modern Fallout games, like some do.
I was stoked for BF6 until it wanted me to enable Secure Boot and install rootkit anti-cheat. Now with the Saudis and Jared Kushner in charge installing a rootkit to play a game is an even worse idea. Maybe if I only used the computer for gaming.
I’ve been hooked on The Finals for my destruction shooter fix, since the development team (Embark Studios) is mostly composed of ex-DICE employees. Their upcoming game Arc Raiders also looks pretty good.
Edit: typo fix
Finals has superior destruction anyways.
This is what I just saw on my thread:
Who need satire at this point?
