We need to talk about EA

[RepentantSky]

The thing is. I personally NEVER bought any of EA's games. They weren't interesting to me from the slightest. Hell. If people hate the company. Then WHY are there millions who keep buying the stuff that they cram out of their sun don't shines?

The sad truth is, is that some people don't really care as much as they make it seem like they do online, and because there is a fairly large amount of people who buy games, who don't keep up with the industry at all, so they are entirely unaware of what they helping to keep alive. It's hard to convince those people that it's important to know either, because how dare anyone insinuate that something is wrong with the games they spend their money on, or something like that. However, if people can keep the pressure on EA like what happened yesterday with future projects, even they'll have to relent some, and hopefully before they take two large steps forward with their anti-consumer practices only to take a small step backwards when people get mad.

It is worth noting that the Campaign completion reward has been reduced by 75 percent as well. At the end of the game, you get a loot crate that used to contain 20,000 credits, now it contains 5,000 credits. Personally, I think it's pretty fair that after you beat the story, you get the chance to buy any hero you'd like, and have a little extra credits to get them going with Star cards, but apparently, EA thinks only Iden should be unlockable after completing the game. In the one hand, since she is a character new to this game's story, I kind of get why they would want you to unlock her after beating it, but considering the fact that she's not main draw of the story after all, and instead you play as heroes through portions of it, you should be able to unlock anyone you want after beating it. Or their should be tiered difficulties each with their own crate at the end, and the 5,000 credit one should be for the lowest difficulty, while the 20,000 credit one should be awarded for completing the highest.
