Reddit user gets internal EA emails, gets details about Fe and A Way Out

I'm sorry to burst your bubble, but pretty much every publisher is like this behind the scenes. You think they don't carefull plan all the rollouts as to generate as much hype as possible?
Yeah it looks real, at least to me anyway. A good co-op game is always welcome!
I know, there is something about that line that makes me laugh.
I really want to see internal marketing emails for games by David Jaffe or Cliff Blezinski where there is just a line going "Oh my god. This fucking guy."
He claims he doesn't know why he is getting these emails. If that is true, I don't see how what he is doing is even remotely illegal. He isn't legally bound to not share EA's info that they sent him.
Fe will probably be a lot like Unravel, boring and sell poorly.
A Way Out will eventually get cancelled.

Yeah, and my uncle never understood how all those stolen DVD players ended up in his garage.
I don't think anyone would have known there was a January direct without the 50 posts in this thread saying so.
Seed the "Influencers" and that can easily be engineered. Just takes getting some YouTubers and Twitch streamers on junkets and gifts.
lol that Josef statement. If I were that guy I'd be questioning the shit out of that, unless I had some crazy skeletons.

I always find it funny prying into video games marketing.

A Way Out may be a 2019 title, but if it is (which is likely), it's most likely an Early 2019, because they have a sales forcast for it for Financial Year 2018, which ends on 31 March 2019.
It's cool Fe's getting more focus with the help of EA, despite their shite behavior. Also wondering what that Josef controversy's all about.
Edit: A quick google just points to this lil tidbit from Josef saying the ps4 is 'not as strong as you think' but that's hardly controversial.

Its so weird to see so specific sales number forecasts for these titles, I guess they assume data from similar titles but pretty interesting how they assume one number for year 1 of sales and then basically double it for lifetime sales.
Just in time for the PS5!
:)
Sounds really dirty, but isn't that pretty much what advertising, or finding your "target audience" is all about?
It's believable that he magically started receiving internal EA emails? OK.
I've seen bits of Fe and it looked okay, but I'm kind of meh on indie platformers. I guess I'll wait for the January Direct then.
A Way Out is way too far out for release for me to give a damn about it right now.

I'm guessing the Josef line is referring to how outspoken / off the cuff he is, not that he is a "bad guy"
EA are probably just worried he will let some comment fly that people will find controversial whether that's about games / the industry / etc.
