Justin11 Posted November 21, 2021 Share Posted November 21, 2021 Hmm, I wouldn't judge from what I don't know much about. EA aren't same with Ubisoft when it comes to video game making. They all have business brand, they are working with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

m76 Posted November 22, 2021 Share Posted November 22, 2021 Quite frankly the playing favorites by gaming companies repulses me. It makes me feel like a second class citizen. When so called influencers get weeks early access to games. It is their way of controlling the narrative, as long as the influencer has good things to say they get early and privileged access. If anything this practice makes me less interested in games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
