Was this the flop that ultimately killed EA?
>>722585634>CHUDS
ea isn't dead and the game was good
>>722585634No, but it is the end of Bioware.
they can afford failures of this magnitude
>>722585718you tell 'em, sister!
>>722585771i'm not your sister or brother. fuck off retard
EA still has its football money, now with more money coming from the Saudis. Bioware is fucked tho.
>errmmm get bought out is being killed actually
>>722585634No, EA has nigh infinite money coming in from sportsball games and nothing else they have actually matters.
>>722585634Nah, at the grand scale of things, DA is niche for EA. It did kill the series for me though
>>722585634Hopefully Kusher and SA can turn the ship around.
>>722585634More like the post-death shit.
>>722585634No it but it should have killed Bioware since EA has killed studios for much less
I'm surprised EA was worth that sort of money.
>>722585634No. EA is making huge bank with sports games, battlefield, star wars, apex, etc.It DID kill Bioware though.
>>722585718yassss slay queen!!
>>722586424>I'm surprised EA was worth that sort of money.Contrary to what 4chan and reddit tell you, EA is massively succesful overall. Just their sports game revenue is bigger than the entire rest of the american videogame industry.
>>722586598Have they tried combining their yearly release of sportsball game with gachas?
>>722585634EA was never dependent on Bioware. It was a studio they kept around because of the prestige. They could've broke even or lost money forever and wouldn't have been dissolved. It's like how mainstream film studios will put out arthouse shit once in a while.
>>722586690ALL of their sports games have gacha and have done since the xbox 360 era. That's why they make so much money
>>722587125I have no idea why I doubted the greed of an American company.
>>722585634I pirated it and enjoyed the combat at least for the first 12 hours. Everything else was shit.
>>722585839EA is billions in debt now.Literally.
>>722587745How does one gets in debt with every normie as a paypig?
>>722585634I still think Andromeda hurt them the most. Just imagine how much money they have wasted on that.
>>722587862The deal they took with Saudi is essentially a loan they have to pay back.
>>722587862I didn't make the deal. It's just a fact
>>72258786255 billion dollars is a lot of money.
>>722585718you go girl
>>722585839Their footy is failing because of woke shitThey added women to their main mode, with inflated stats, so some random cunt you have never heard of is just as good as Messi Their revenue nosedived because of it, but they refuse to back off
>>722589956>They added women to their main mode, with inflated stats, so some random cunt you have never heard of is just as good as Messikek basedPissi Cuckitini sucks
>>722590164Replace Messi with Ronaldo or whomever you likeIt's retarded
>>722590330>>722590164>>722589956i dont know anything about soccer but i like the big blond viking looking finnish guy.
>>722589956pecho frio
>>722585839I don't give a shit, it'll become a meme to see soccer stars in different games. At least their games won't be pozzed anymore.
>>722588126>EA has to take a loan so someone else could buy themI am too retarded for the world of finances
>>722590497Thor?
>>722585634>flop>singularGET GLITCHED
>>722585634EA's stock price reached an all-time high in August well before any news of the acquisition came out. They had no debt. They weren't in trouble. They were bought out because the stock was being UNDERvalued. I think most here would even agree: if you had the resources EA has and cut out the obvious (to anyone without a septum piercing) gay bullshit that doesn't sell, you could easily make more money than they currently do.
>>722585634>the flop that ultimately killed EA?The flop was buying full-pozzed Bioware.
>>722585634This game has amazing gameplay, wish there was an MMO or an ARPG with this game's gameplay. It would be so fucking fun.
>>722585634Sure, whatever makes you feel better. No doubt EA are on their last breath, probably just two more weeks and they're gone.
>>722590497harland? dude is more of a neanderthal than a viking
>>722585718I gotta admit it is kino of the highest caliber.
>>722585718I enjoyed parts of it. The level design was great. The characters all felt like NPCs.
>>722585718I put over 300 hours into Inquisition but I deleted Veilguard 20 minutes after starting even though I got it for free. It's a shit show.
>>722598123>>I put over 300 hours into InquisitionI quit at 27. Didn't even bother with Veilguard.
>>722597751To think that in a few months we'd get not one, but two running animations to rival Linkara's run is just peak animation.
>>722585756Bioware was dead already. All the people that worked on classic Bioware games long since moved on by the time Veilgard dropped
>>722585718so....you're non-binary?
>>722585634Never noticed the gay colors.Is this some kind of subliminal conditioning?
>>722589956did the gambling footie guyes really got pisses because of ULTRA RARE womyn cards? lmao
>>722598123>I put over 300 hours into InquisitionHoly shit taste
>>722600934>Poop
I'm amazed they distilled so many unlikeable traits into a single character to create a walking representation of everything wrong with modern video game development. Taash should be studied by writers and designers so they can learn what NOT to when writing or designing characters.
>>722585757yeah, like Volition
>>722600934I don't play sports games, but I find this fascinating. If I understand this correctly, FIFA/FC has had women players for a while, but in separate leagues (like a realistic soccer simulation should).Somebody then had the bright idea to just slot the female players into their legally-not-gambling card game, Ultimate Team, with absolutely no adjustments to their gameplay skill ratings (which are based on performance within their own women's leagues IRL), so you end up with shit like this where female player cards are stomping male player cards instead of getting their asses handed to them by 14yo boys IRL.You'd think EA would be a little more careful with their one golden goose.
>>722603675>instead of getting their asses handed to them by 14yo boys IRL.Try 12yo
>>722603675so? just buy women card then, surely they are 25% cheaper
>>722597751For me it's the fact that all the clips that torpedoed veilguard were released willingly.Unlike TLOU2, it wasn't sabotaged by a pissed off employee, they actually thought they were putting their best foot forward
>>722605364True, but TLoU2 was sold on false advertising. Remember the clips that showed Ellie talking seemingly to Joel, as it was framed in the advertisement, about going on a trip together again, only for Joel to be dead in hour 1 of the game, after acting like a fucking moron? Shit, I bet if Bioware were allowed to dishonestly advertise, they could have sold half a million copies more.
>>722605615>I bet if Bioware were allowed to dishonestly advertise, they could have sold half a million copies more.Undoubtedly, which makes it even funnier.They had plenty of edgy parts they could clip togther and pretend were the core of the game, which would sell the return to form lie much more effectively.Sure, people would have been pissed when they got barved, but they'd have been pissed at a product they bought, not laughing at one they didn't.
>>722600934can i fuck Reiten in your divegrass game?
>>722605615They pulled a mgs2 but even worse because Snake is back as a supporting cast member like 40 minutes after his "death"
>>722606008She's some years old you suck fuck
>>722602791Taash was a disaster of such monumental proportions that I think even the vidya industry actually learned something from it.
>>722602960Comparing Volition and EA in this way is a good argument for why you are retarded.
>>722611775That doesn't change the fact that Bioware is basically not existent now, just like Volition.
>>722585718>further dumbs down the mechanics >retcons everything in the setting to be the fault of mystery niggas>shit writing and charactersAnd that’s leaving out all the asinine idpol shit.
>>722585718You can make money with ragebait on X, just go there
