Star Whores: Diverse Agenda

[rabidtictac]

Battlecuck 2 already tried microtransactions and then panic-deleted them after the internet blew up with rage. EA is incapable of not being greedy. They've killed countless creative teams with their greed and they'll continue to.

But hey, if dumb gamers keep buying the games, they deserve to get their wallets raped.

Because EA.
The shitstorm surrounding that game apparently got the governments of Australia, Belgium, and Hawaii involved concerning whether or not lootboxes fall under gambling.

EA still being in business is living proof that gaymurs are cucks.

I edited my post.

It's free, apparently.

But I know they wanted it to cost something and they had planned to have it priced. Guess some countries banning it because of the boxes being "gambling" kinda made them switch some gears.

I dunno, even if real gaymurs didn't buy their shit, they'd still be in business due to the abundance of fucking idiots who buy EA Sports games every year and insist that it's not the same fucking game.

Lel, exactly. Last EA game I bought was Dead Space 2. After that, zilch. I can't justify giving those assholes money anymore.

Kind of, but also not really.

EA has insane, pie-in-the-sky sales projections. When their shit doesn't live up to their sales projections, they fire everyone and close down the studio. Sure, your little boycott isn't going to do shit to let EA know you don't like Madden or 2K or whatever, but boycotting Mirror's Edge or Dead Space 3 sure the fuck will close down those studios!

I think Battlefront is kind of in the middle. Star Wars is a very big property, but star wars GAMES are a little more niche than NBA or American Football if we're talking about normie audiences. There are plenty of star wars games that "failed."

Ultimately, boycotting is all you can do anyway. It's the only thing that makes a difference in a capitalist society. Just don't be a moralfag who has to keyboard warrior about it all the time.

Except they actually get exactly what they wanted. The loads of guys who only ever get the yearly CoD and Madden/FIFA know what they are doing.

Mine was either Mass Effect 3 or Kingdoms of Amamanallur.

The weird thing is that the only person I know of who buys the yearly editions of Madden is a Japanese guy who mostly plays old action games and FPS's. He strikes me as the last person who would get into Madden (then again, his gaming taste is pretty westernized).
