The Mass [Layoff] Effect

This is great news, soon there will be no EA!

Wouldn't that be just the CEO, then?

I just realized I haven't played an EA game in over a decade. SW Battlefront II was the last one, and it felt like a downgrade from the 2005 version.

I mean, are there any of their titles that have made an impact in the last decade? I can't think of any other than sports and racing games.

In this whole ordeal that has been EA ... I can't remember a single instance where they tried to do the right thing by listening to the consumer, or employees for that matter.

It's amazing they are still around even. Die quicker pls.

Oligarchs oligarching. Every “publisher” and “developer” is firing everyone and are gonna very quickly vanish once it’s remembered that perpetual motion is impossible.

Private Equity 101, "buy" a business using borrowed money, put all the debt on the company you "bought", slash costs, sell off assets, have the company declare bankruptcy and take all the debt with it, rince and repeat... Profit.

Can't wait for them to destroy it like they destroyed their golf league.

People are still buying EA:s unfinished games? Wow.

I admit that they got me a few times, but I quickly learned not to buy from them again.

EA sucks ass, hopefully this is the beginning of the end.

EA, it's in the grave.

So which studios will die this time?

Yah, i expect not to buy anymore EA games. They had a good run i guess.

Mind you I haven't played many anyway lately.

I'm shocked... /s

My only hope is EA dies soon and some other devs take up and resurrect ME and DA

Hopefully they will combine the company with Neom so a future romantic poet finds the ruins amid the sands and wonders at the hubris of it.

Just trimming some fat (and a leg or two)

Fuck yourself EA. Wouldn't buy any more shit from you. Actually I don't buy us-american stuff at all anymore. Except indie-games.

They'll only make sports games, that's the reliable cash cow.

Been playing Electronic Arts games since the 1980’s.

Even if they are a shit company, Nice knowing ya.
