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 believe that. EA didn't have values before and will continue to not have them now.

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

    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.

    Hey, at least EA has not had a journalist dismembered... yet.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    This is what I just saw on my thread:

    Who need satire at this point?

    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.

    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.

    That’s easy when you don’t have any values.

    Ah, I'm so relieved. For a second I thought they were going to stop being absolute dog shit.

    So still no reason to buy? Gotcha!

    Before they bought EA: EA is literally the devil.

    After they bought EA: Great, there goes our EA!

    I've been boycotting them since before Battlefront 3 and I'm not stopping now

    Well, that's quite the bold-faced lie.

    My 11+ year old boycott of EA is looking smarter & smarter every day.

    look at the bright side. EA couldn't get any worse anyway. If it dies because of this then this event might be seen as a boon to humanity.
