I'll give the benefit of doubt to a company that have manage to stay open for so long and profitable and people that managed to reach CEO position in a company like that. You want to claim they made a bad decision, be my guest, anyone can make them. But to claim they are dumb for not doing what you want is another thing. Would you have credentials to put they as dumb and you as bright? |
The problem is that EA's choices for the last couple of years have been incredibly shortsighted. Nevermind the buying studios and closing them after drying up all of their talent, they've been doing that for decades now. But things like reducing their game output to a very small variety of genres, IPs ad releases per year, applying microtransactions and/or lootboxes to all of their important titles even though they are being threatened with legal regulation, and launching games in a considerably incomplete state are seeds that will grow and strangle the company once the microtransactions & lootbox bubble bursts. They have little to no safeguards if their business model falls apart.
