The Rules

Watch as they still milk them to death.

They cannot improve these games, give them meaningful updates or expansions. But they have killed many of their competitors and further monopolised the industry.

The second Microsoft gains a market majority in the gaming industry they will employ as many scummy tactics as possible to wring every cent out of people.

Basically the old EA approach. They don't seem to realize that EA never restored their reputation from those days. But, I guess they don't care as long as they can show a line going ever upward for the shareholders.

Restore... They are actively working to ensure I never buy another game again from there.

Last bf was the last straw for me. I am out.

Then they go and add anti cheat for bfv? I am a Linux gamer, fuck u.
