I think sometimes when someone does something a little shitty for only a small payoff, it feels worse than a big shitty for a big payoff. And if it feels like they could've just not done the shitty thing, that's even worse.
EA's annoyances just feel petty and unnecessary, and aren't even worth it. At least the horrible bank and oil company are making shit loads of money, and people kind of assume banks and oil companies are scum. But a video game? They could've spent just as much effort not being horrible.
I don't even consider ea to make games anymore. no desire to look at their stuff. overpriced, low quality flashy crap.. I see more headaches and paywalls then I do entertainment. I'll spend my money on Indy devs only and have for the last year or two.
these companies can rot for all I care, I just wish others weren't blinded by the graphics and actually saw their crap for what it truly is instead of orebuying some experiment, then complaining online after thenly can't get a refund.
