There's one thing that props up EA despite their fuckups and that's the amount of people buying their soccer game.
It's the only way to play a soccer game with licensed clubs, which makes it a monopolized market.
To kill EA as a corporation - you have to change that. There just have to be alternative soccer games with licenses for the main European leagues.
Otherwise, they'll just keep buying up anything they can with the FIFA money.
Yeah I'm not sure those of us that care spend any money with them anyway. I'd been looking through my games recently and I don't think I've bought a single thing EA since 2019. Perhaps late 2018. Excluding MoH Warfighter secondhand I bought last year for $3 IIRC. They just fell so far. NHL was an annual buy for me for a decade probably. They just got so super lazy since it moved to current-gen. It really was just a reskin. Why would I spend on that? They ruined all their series. Battlefield, Dead Space, Dragon Age, and Mass Effect not all that many years ago would have been buys in the first 6 months for me. Now they don't even blip on my radar because I know how horrible they will be.
But you're right, if FIFA and Madden were to die, EA would be up shit creek without a paddle. Apex Legends, is that theirs? Those BR games print money as quick as the federal reserve.
