Asking if EA really is an evil company is like asking if water is wet.

is Evil an EA company? Sounds about right.

Surprisingly Evil I would say.

No , they're doing what companies do. Love 'em or hate em, sure nothing wrong with an opinion...evil...that's really stretching things.

Is EA Really an Evil Company

Ahahaha ohh good 1........ Oh wait, is this serious?

Yes.

No gamers exaggerate about everything, fanboy, and are in general tribal blood thirsty lemmings

The entire point of a corporation is to make money. I'm not going to hate them for it, but also I do not buy their stuff.

Terrible

There are many reason why EA is listed in the top 5 most hated companies in America.

No, they are surprisingly ethical /s

Yes...

They're ruining the game industry man! Loot boxes are one thing, but when the entire game is based on luck of getting what you want/need from lootboxes, that's taking it way too far.

When it comes to EA monetizing games they don't seem ethical or fair this gen. Battlefront 2 showed this.

For those that have been around a long time. Yes. They have bought and ruined many studios since the 90s.

I'm happy acti brought us Sekiro, but honestly that helped them on so many levels than it did fromsoft.
I just don't get why they get a pass when they need the heat on their ass just as much as EA IMO.

Yes.

What kind of first world question is that? If that’s what passes as evil these days then we are better off than I thought.

Greedy

Yes

Pay-to-Win. EA sells cheats that lets online players win over another player not based on skill but only because they paid extra to EA.

Imagine if you were playing a game of chess and were about to lose, but instead you paid an extra $10 and you get an extra queen on the board so you can checkmate your opponent. That's EA in a nutshell.

The author is obviously paid to support EA …. They should be shamed and removed from their job

To ask if a company that is notorious for anti-consumer practices, ripping off consumers, launching a tirade of broken games all the while trying to defend MT's as ethical is down right screwed …

To merely question their ACTIONS as acceptable or common for companies is pure bias … PERIOD !!!!

It's painfully obvious there is a lack of morals and ethics in this piece …. Human Trash

But why only hate on EA when others are doing the same thing? Activision/Ubisoft

As much as the US president is an evil moron. So yes.

Yes. End of story. Move on.

Yes and preferred choice death of EA https://www.youtube.com/wat...

CD Projekt Red = Armin
EA = Bertholdt

Answer is yes

Yes they suck. They stifle and then ruin good devs.

Are you serious?

Not evil, just super greedy and selfish.

EA: We have some good ideas!
Me: What?
EA: Always-online in games and loot boxes!
Me: Both of those have caused a lot of problems in games.

Do we really need these kind of articles?

I don't know about an evil one but as of now a tired one,they haven't released an abundance of interesting games like they use to except for sport games.

YES

Yes.

Yes.

yes and so cheatcc.com. losers who can't write anything beyond clickbait.

Unconcerned with what their market wants, shortsighted, stubborn, greedy...yep, sounds like evil to me.

Is this a serious question?

Yes.

EA making money doesn't make them bad guys, the way they're making money does.

Tell me again how the multiplatform strategy was supposed to fix everything. Look at your results and compare them to Nintendo, which keeps thriving with exclusives. Your loyal fans are gone. And let’s not forget the pile of IPs you purchased only to let them rot.

The worst thing is this is down from last years numbers/expectations which was down from the previous years numbers/expectations. You think about how long “down” has been a consistent part of the communication and you realize those subscriptions are what’s holding that boat together. The price cut of gamespass is still a price raise in a string of price raises. They are trying to use players to offset the missing revenue. Now call of duty is out of gamespass, which is literally WHY they bought the company. To draw people to the subscription. They realized they missed a boatload of money and that wasn’t sustainable. Now you pay for it like you would have if they never bought the company… so why buy the company? Mind you those billions still need to be paid back. Yeah it gives you a chance to say we make the biggest FPS… but the internal conversations must be brutal at high level on topics that really matter. Like revenue. Profitability. And ROI for the shopping spree.

Is this like the 10th quarter in a row they're down 33% on hardware how is that even mathematically possible. You would think their mediocrity would Plateau
