No. Every single AAA publisher has a history of screwing over people. That includes fan favorites like Blizzard and Rockstar which are owned by Take Two, one of the biggest scumbags in the industry. BF2 and SOW are down from their previous installments because they are strictly worse games and people had their fill with the first ones. And they still made a hefty profit. All the while EA and WB are raking in cash with other terrible games that do not have the public eye directly on them. Those games were merely small road bumps and they will soon try again to pull some shit. Or maybe they duck down for a bit and let other assholes like Ubisoft or some mobile publishers take the piss next. You think the stationary gaming market cannot become like the mobile market? In the mobile market P2W and pay to continue are already there to stay and people have given up. Nothing is holy anymore and we're already on a straight path to hell. Which is why I was so amused and disillusioned at the EA protests. It took something that gigantic with one of the most popular franchises in the world for people to even start noticing. If that is what it takes then we're totally fucked because publishers will first try out their worst schemes in smaller games until they get a free pass on the bigger ones. |
Well I haven't given up. I don't support games with shady business practices. EA still deserves all the hate it gets and then some though.
