Kane99 Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 I know I talk a lot of shit about EA and how awful they are, but there are good studios that are stuck with them. Even though EA is an awful publisher, I still want to support the studios under them. Because even though they're stuck under EA, some great games still get released by them. It takes two is one that immediately come to mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Withywarlock Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 Hazelight Studios, the developers you're referring to, aren't owned by Electronic Arts. They were given money and office space at DICE to develop their games as part of an initiative to support independent developers (which, err, are no longer independent) but have not yet been acquired. Even so, I'm sure for every studio that has a good game published under the EA Originals initiative, there's probably another studio that one deserves its critics through no fault of the publisher. BioWare, for instance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Empire Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 Imagine, the company that literally sucks the soul out of video games claiming they’re doing the gaming world justice. It’s amazing that this popped up because I was just thinking about how EA’s business approach to video games makes some of the blandest and soulless content I’ve ever seen.

Justin11 Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 Is the first time I'm hearing this, that EA have some independent publishers that operate under their studio, which has enabled the independent publishers to develop wonderful video games. If so, then EA deserves credit for given chance to those publishers to carryout their operations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Electronic Arts will always be Electronic Arts, and their practices will never change in the future because it's part and parcel of their make up.

Justin11 Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 For acting in a generous manner and allowing some smaller companies/devs who couldn't afford a studio to build their game deserves credit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you being serious about this right now? Anyways, you're a big fan of EA and their games, so I'm not really that surprised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not a big fan of EA like that, just that I encourage good games, with what I saw they acted benevolently by allowing other companies use their gaming studio in making their own games.

Heatman Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 As far as I'm concerned, gone are the days when EA would lay any kind of claims for them to be respected because they have sold it all for the money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
