Excited to double down on not buying EA games going forward. Graph to come.
Expected, safe and boring. That's trippple ay games for you.
The publishing of smaller games is where any unexpected things might happen. Your Unravels and Fares' and whatnot.
Battlefield will probably be my multiplayer jam in perpetuity, so I'm fine with that sticking around for probably about as long, except for the part where EA's idea of live service for Battlefield is often to rush the games out and fix the bugs and/or content shortages later. And I much prefer paying for a season pass, because there's like five times the maps, and less microtransactions, loot boxes, paying for unlocks, whatever else bullshit etc. But there's always the unfortunate issue of splitting the player base, and I don't think EA will be going back.
The Sims 4 is pretty good and they've done some nice DLC (that's also not cheap) but the game's from 2014. It's about time to upgrade the platform. But I don't expect they will any time soon, considering they did a UI/branding update not too long ago. I suppose then that I hope they're taking their time getting The Sims 5 goddamn good and proper before they put it out.
Looking forward to BFV: Pacific, Fallen Order, and maybe NFS Heat.
The problem is that EA has monopoly on this games. People want Soccer and Football games with there favorite teams and players over a good product. That is why, they can just get away with crap.Who keeps supporting these games? Fifa and Madden are yearly disasters with barely any innovations in regards to gameplay or features with a buggy engine that causes absurd glitches on top of predatory microtransactions, review scores get lower year after year and all you see is people complaining about them and yet the player count increases?
It feels like EA just keep getting worse but their profits just keep getting better, it makes zero sense.
Yeah, Mcgee and his studio were trying to get the license for a sequel.
If EA's gonna do fuck all like usual, just license it to the man to make something interesting instead of hoarding IPs and sitting on them.
I think you meant to say published...Visceral made Dead Space, Dice made Mirrors Edge, etc.Gross, I hate EA's sports game and ultimate team nonsense.
It's weird, but I miss EA from like 2005-2013-ish. They made a hell of a lot of good games in that timeframe.
Thank you so much for your support! It means the world to me. Unfortunately, due to unforseen circumstances I've had to push the release of the graph back indefinitely. However, I will be releasing a roadmap of my plans very soon! Please look forward to smaller, more frequent examples of data over the coming months.
Agreed BFV finally appears to have turned the corner. I don't think we will see a BF next year which considering the rough start to V is the right call.
is now the right time to get back into it? I bought it around launch and probably havent played it since February

That seems like an unnecessary clarification considering they were/are part of EA (RIP Pandemic).I think you meant to say published...Visceral made Dead Space, Dice made Mirrors Edge, etc.

I really wish, some institution would force the FIFA and NFL to give there licenses to at least two different companies, so that there is some competition.
I hope FIFA street is a core franchise

Dragon Age live service would actually be great. Odyssey provided a great blueprint for how to keep players engaged in a single-player experience.
Why do people say "doubling down"? Wouldn't you instead be "doubling up"? I mean it is more, right? So you go upward?

technically costing them money to play their online games and not giving them money (after the initial one time of course)You agree with them but at the same time you are saying that BF2 and BF5 have good multiplayer and you constantly play both games.
Really?
