tbf i found most of sims 4 dlcs worth it, they added mechanics to the game, like pets, or laundry, or actually working, etc...others not so much, asthetics shouldnt be 5-15 dollars, and yes 50 dollars for the mechanics is a bit much, maybe 25 dollars at most maybe 30 for the at work dlc

[@SHAdow98V]

EA did a couple of good things,and those are the very very old games they used to do,let's face it all the Need for Speed games up to Carbon were awsome,and so are most of the games they made up to that point,but from 2008 or 2009 on they started to become what we all hate today,but yeah i agree with you,all these games i say are good,they are but ONE thing EA did good,can anyone burn about 50 of their brain cells for half a day or more to find another thing EA did good? cuz honestly i doubt i could find anythingelse,also we can all agree that their first BIG mistake was trying to make multiplayer MTX based need for speeds,remember how it all started? NFS World anyone? the game in which the only thing the game gave you was the starting car and nothingelse to put on it? and then the next multiplayer NFS fail which was MW 2012? those were some of their first BIG mistakes,and from then on ppl's hate grew mroe and more

[@4400seriesFAN]

That's a reply of a hater. You clearly ignored the part that I said "popularized the X genre" and you replied with "they make the same games every year" as if this has anything to do with what I said. See? That's how a hater replies. Completely changing the subject because the point someone made doesn't give them room to counter. Battlefield is the game that popularized the semi-realistic/tactical FPS genre and it belongs to EA. And if you think that BF4 has anything to do with BF1 and BFV, you are massively misinformed.

And did not take the opportunity to capitalize by releasing SW game after SW game of every kind for ten straight years. Instead, cancelling SW game after game for the first half, releasing three SW games in the latter half, two of which are primarily shallow online versus games, one totally lootbox-centric, and then sneaking in one pretty good SW single player game right at the finish line. They were given a money printer and told they could have it for ten years, and in the end only printed fifty bucks for a half-decent dinner."

@@Cherubim666999 Westwood - Command and Conquer was ruined by EA. The moment EA started publishing with Yuri's Revenge up until they dismantled C&C. C&C was garbage. Battlefield started before EA published it, codename eagle, BF1942, afterwards the games were always riddled with game breaking bugs and problems. Any and every bioware game after EA took over Bioware has been notably garbage. Maxis was also one of the best companies ever with sims and sim City PRE EA. But got bought out and destroyed by EA. Now the only 'good' title is sims 4 which severely lacks features even the first sims had. Lionhead studios (black and white) was a company made splitting from Bullfrog studios (EA bought them and some of them were let go some wanted more freedom) and was then was driven into the ground by... You guessed it. EA. DAoC was originally made by Mythic Entertainment a company owned by Venvidi universal - i.e. Activision Blizzard now-in-days. The second one, a massive flop was produced by EA. EA at one point was an okay company. But since around the time they took over WestWood. They quickly became to gaming what the Nazis were to the Jews. They take over studios, usually sneakily forceful, they push them to the point where they have no choice but to sell out to EA. Then EA pushes the companies with impossible deadlines and rules. Forcing the games to come out rushed and bad. Finally when the games don't perform they shut down parts of the company, fire employees they said they wouldn't fire and replace them with EA goons. Sure they slapped their names on IPs they published and eventually game companies they bought out. But does that make them a good company that's "Developed and published hundreds of the best games ever"? No. EA is a rotten company, this why they won the golden poo award multiple years in a row for the worst company ever.

[@serialmiller1987]

2 mistakes for me come to mind with EA. 1. EA Skate 3 being strictly online only. I still play Skate 2 to this day as a party game because the Hall of Meat mode is a tone of fun with friends and having the reactions occur in the same room is part of said fun! 2. I've always purchased the yearly NHL installments as I am a diehard hockey fan. However; in NHL 19 and NHL 20 when EA took out the authentic arenas (i.e. Party Hard by Andrew W.K. Playing at Penguins Home games) I feel it took away from the enjoyment. Also, the PA announcer sounds the same whether your team scores a goal on the road or at home. This may not sound like a big deal to some, but I am a person who is legally blind so the audio is a HUGE part of the experience for me.

[@taquete]

When bf3 first released for ps3 it had an aweful input lag that wasnt there in the beta. EA blamed this on people not having the tv set in "game mode". But after a year of having an unpleyable game, they suddenly fixed it, but the damage was already done.

Hey, did you forget when their CEO said "25 years at EA and I still struggle with the external perception that we're just a bunch of bad guys"?

[@guilhermesignor8358]

I guess need for speed pro street needs a honorable mention in the list. The game they advertised looked really cool, had good graphics, car damage, way better engine sound than previous NFS games, and detailed ambients with crowd, baloons and graffiti art all over the place. That was a loyal advirtisement, but only if you bought the PC, XBOX, or PS3 version. The PS2 version was totally trash, all the graphics and sounds were recycled from previous NFS games, there were no car damage, no crowds or detailed ambients, and had less cars. That was a huge deception because there was no previous warning that the PS2 version were totally different from the advertised.

[@neuro301official7]

Let’s not forget their absolute destruction of Black Box after seeing the success of NFS Underground 2.

I always buy EA games but never new or close to its release date, i buy them all when they are in discount. Never bought a EA Game more than $20

they are pretty much only surviving with FIFA fans, of which a huge chunk of people aren't much of video gaming enthusiasts, and doesn't realize how EA is fucking them over by giving barely minimal for a 60 dollar game every year

It shouldn’t be, “mistakes” they’ve done, more like “horrible non caring” things they’ve done.

william nilsson makes sense since EA is a mistake itself and they don't care about the fan base regardless of how much they show how much they "care" about their fans

[@kennedyedwards6215]

I will never forget what EA did with Anthem. I was so stoked for the game release and even pre-ordered. But the first several weeks, the servers were down sporadically and who can forget the concern for "bricking" your rig. The lack of a compelling narrative and extremely repetitive game play just ruined it. I will also not forget what happened to my favorite game franchise of all time Dead Space. The first and second games were, as Falcon says, "chef's kiss". Then the 3rd was essentially poopy. I know EA is trying to revive the game, which im excited to see it back, but I'm also worried how bad EA is going to screw it up.

[@danielpascual333]

Your experience remind me of Dragon Age 2. It was the first game I pre-ordered and was super excited for, just for it to be total crap. The story was boring and characters forgetagble. They hyped it like crazy and turned out to be a total dissapointment. I've never pre-ordered a game since.

"working as intended"- Every support answer from EA

I can relate to this. Years ago, in SWtOR, every response from support was either this, or a sweetened "it's your fault, not ours".

[@killer008r]

@@josecorchete3732 at the beginning of Mass effect Andromeda, I tried to make a sniper character. there was this bug where if you were too far away from the enemy and shooting at them, the enemies wouldn't respond, or they would respond by ducking and standing up. On every difficulty. I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt by saying it was a bug, and not just crappy AI programming. I reported it and in the form post that I reported it in, the EA technical support guy said "just don't use a sniper then"
