Not surprising that the new owners Jared Kushner and the Saudis are looking to hack up human developer costs.

Cause EA needs to get even more scummy and poor quality

Ah shit, I probably need to delete my Origin account... Oh, that's not even a thing anymore.

There are vestiges of it, I still play sims 3 (on linux) and every so often the Origin login pops up

May go sailing for it after this tho

Not you. That's OK. But your dumbasss neighbor that plays EA footballs and feetball with his 3 kids are going down a nazi propaganda hole they weren't expecting.

I have some EA games that I got for free over the years, but I don’t know which ones are because there isn’t an online library, you need to install their crappy launcher for that and I’ll be damned if I ever do so.

I already wasn't buying their games. There's no need to further convince me

[–] fckreddit@lemmy.ml 4 points 20 hours ago

Sure it will.

Haven't bought any of their games in a decade 🏴‍☠️

[–] jerkface@lemmy.ca 3 points 22 hours ago

I bought them when they were asking me if a computer could make me cry but I had stopped by the time they were telling me it was in the game.

I only have any EA games at all because I got them free on Epic. They all require launchers and are so shit I can't even play them so I guess what I'm saying is I HOPE YOUR AI IS BETTER THAN THE ONES I HAVE ACCESS TO YOU MORONS LOL

Those nazis are gutting and milking EA dry, just like they would any other company. Yet, these nazis will nazify every single thing about every EA franchise on their way out.
