EA's AAA track record has been horrendous for the past few years. I guess all of the devs under EA are highly incompetent
An EA published game that is not AAA, and not $60. Sounds to me like EA was very hands off, and that's likely why its good.
It already has. You pay for all the upcoming "free" content(that was removed from the final game) by buying armor packs and cosmetics(that were also all removed from the final game). Whether you like the game or not(which I personally do), EAs strategy is to keep you playing the game for a long time so they can milk you with microtransactions.

The difference is that one game was made to be a game that fans would enjoy, while the other was made that will get people to pay for content that was gutted from the game. You are wrong, what we bought is only 1/4 of the complete package. We will one way or the other, end up paying far more than $60. This is EA, they will find a way to strong arm people into playing.
People in power whether in video games or beyond set the stage for people and then exploit them. The race is fallible because that is what it wants to be. People will buy these games, and then look forward to the drip fed content that was removed from a mostly finished product.
They laid out a roadmap of content that was present in the game before EA came along and gutted it you mean.
@Nitrowolf
Just take a look at the video Bioware released in November 2018, and take a look at all of the content that was there, and compare it to what we have now. The higher ups gutted the game, and this is an absolute fact. Before the game came out, I always said " Sure, there may not be any loot boxes; but Ea WILL get their money." But if EA does not stop their monetization schemes, they wont be getting any money at all.
Is that why the AAA games that come out from EA have been flops for the past 4 years? Battlefront was not Biowares work, neither was Need for Speed, or Battlefield 5. Sure Bioware has some blame, but most of it is likely on EA. The game being barren of content, the story being chopped up and worthless, the repetitive and lackluster loot, etc. These are the signs of a product in which they fully intended to sale a large portion of its acceptable content to us later.
Is that why almost every AAA game that EA is involved with have been colossal train wreck? If there is stench everywhere one goes, the smell might be coming from oneself. EA has just been having disaster after disaster after disaster. Sure, some things are on Bioware, but the game having zero content, and having so many broken systems? Undoubtly EA's influence.
I mean, they are meant to suck, because it is a ploy by the publisher to make money by selling us the game one scrap at a time. It is not excusable though.
Perhaps. Doubtful though
Anthem has fun gameplay, just wish EA did not gut the game so far from its true potential
Said by someone who likely does not even know the person. The indoctrination is strong.
Trust me, I dont hate Bioware, as they are still my favorite developers of them all. I bought Anthem day one even though I knew EA had tainted the game. Im just being honest about EAs intentions with the game. It is what it is.
I get what you mean, but it must be stressed that Rockstar first and foremost made a good game in both cases. They separated Take Twos money making scheme into the online mode and only the online. In that case, gamers are happy, and so are investors.
I like Anthem,but EA does not know how to appeal to gamers. Anthem is a giant money making scheme designed as a game. We can see how, just like Destiny, they purposely had Bioware remove content and assets from the game so that...
People are rebelling against EA right now. They are saying "stop making money making schemes disguised as games."
Its not cool when people do that: "In my opinion" stuff.If it's an opinion it's an opinion. No need to point that out for him.
Lol . Sadly true. When I played the demo, I knew that the Tyrant mine mission was a trick to sucker people in with first impressions. Turns out I was right.
Because just like many others, they may start off thinking they can pull it off. Once they are deep in development, there is virtually no turning back if you are struggling
Both.If you like hitting things, get both.
