  I haven’t been giving EA any money for years already and I SURE WON’T BE DOING SO ANYTIME SOON!

  Was “Yakety sax” playing in the background when they said that?

  maybe we’'ll get lucky and they’ll burn out so hard they have to sell the titanfall, mass effect, and dragon age IPs to companies who won’t fuck them up.

  Battlefield 6 is fucked.

  Root access to PCs, EU chatcontrol, and AI together!!! Unlimited profits!

  So… if there ever was going to be a new Mass Effect it’s going to be totally shit now? Fuck.

  If that‘s their big plan… well, I hope the IPs find smarter homes after EA goes bankrupt

    Seeing Jared Kushner’s involvement, I fear that will just end with bailouts on the regular.

  I will never give my money to the saudis if I can help it…. EA will have to put out a pretty crazy game for me to buy another EA title.

  The boycott season is getting riper by the day.

    I’m actually starting to save money lol

  • ZILtoid1991@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    Indies deserve your money much more, and less likely for that money to go to some exec’s premiums.

  Making good games that arent pay to win trash will do that too, ya know…

  source
• ipkpjersi@lemmy.ml ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

  So business as usual, then.

• P00ptart@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

  Damn, I was actually looking forward to battlefield 6. Haven’t bought an EA game in probably 10 years, so the loss isn’t that big of a deal. And with COD being shit for 12 years, my FPS days might be over.

    It’s very stupid to install a rootkit spyware on your computer to play a video game. Now that spyware is owned by the Saudi government too. Assuming you play on PC.

      I’m a playstation guy. My computer savvy days are way in the rearview.

    Delta Force has a Battlefield-ish multiplayer mode. It’s free to play and you unlock new characters and guns as you advance. (Then there’s an extraction mode too if you’re into that.) I just tried it for the first time after the beta several months ago and I thought it was alright. No jets, but still solid.

    • P00ptart@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      Honestly I don’t like the air vehicles of battlefield, so that’s not a ding against it in my book.

  • Jarix@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    Maybe start a gang war PvP in gtav? I’ve never played gtav so I don’t know if that’s even possible

    source

    • P00ptart@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      I’ve never played their multiplayer. I’ll just play fallout 4. Close enough, right?

  Ahahahaha. .Good luck with that. :D

  I’ve had my fair share of issues with EA, so honestly fuck them lmao hope their ai vision will doom them to bankruptcy

• prettybunnys@sh.itjust.works ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

  Goddamnit. I was actually looking forward to BF6

  • Lfrith@lemmy.ca ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    I recommend saving the money and checking out the Finals which has better destruction. Has 3 v 3 objective mode too now for those who hated getting third partied.

    Oh yeah, were you looking forward to a sense of pride and accomplishment?

    source
  • morphballganon@mtgzone.com ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    Do they have good gameplay? Story?

    source
• n3m37h@sh.itjust.works ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

  Looks like everyone needs to boycott EA

  source

  • Jarix@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    Sorry to be the one laughing at you.

    But I need to try really think hard on this.

    If people haven’t boycotted EA by now, what in the wild hells makes you think this is the straw that’s gonna break that mutant camels back?

  I think this news makes me appreciate madden now more than ever as AI will break the frostbite engine even more.
