As it is I can't bring myself to buy because there is just no justifying it. The game is full of bugs that keep getting worse but they still want more money

      ​@Filthy Light There is NO demand for Pay-to-win. The problem is the people that willingly buy into it. For instance the FIFA players. Not only do they willingly buy the games every year when some are literally just re-skins of the previous game, but there are enough people that will invest in the pay-to-win to allow EA to keep doing it, even though most FIFA players hate it. And even though over 90% of the players hate it, those 90% won't stop buying the game every year. So why would EA stop? The mad fans still give them money, and a smaller percentage of fans give them even more money...its win-win for them.
      EA won't stop until people STOP buying their games. And people won't, FIFA is the most popular game in the world.

The Hellgate: London (2018) on Steam is not the same game, it's an update of Hellgate: Global which was the original game turned into a Korean F2P MMO... So, why is that bad? Because the Korean F2P demographic tends to have cheaper hardware with less power to push graphics. As a result, the '18 game has worse graphics that are blurry, the '07 game can use DX10, the '18 version only uses DX 9.

      See the problem here is the tactics EA uses. There's nothing wrong with a company that makes money for what they do...that's what a company does. However, when said company willfully and intentionally builds Skinner Boxes in order to get kids gambling...now, we have a problem. When they intentionally build games that are actually damaging an entire generation of children for profits, they need to be called out.
      Before you make the statement "parents...blah, blah, blah." EA has essentially flown under the radar of the ESRB. You know, the actual ratings board designed to help parents decide what is okay for their children. EA's practices with their loot boxes, surprise mechanics, and pay for random chance is illegal, full stop. Every single game they make should be pulled from the market (every with pay for play schemes) and rated AO. Some states were going after EA just before COVID 19 hit and when it's finally over I suspect they will continue going after them.
