wtflag Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 (edited) Watch the top executives still make millions in bonuses. Business do well, executive bonus. Business do poorly, staff pay cut. While I'm gleeful that EA is getting their just deserves, the unfortunate reality is that the ones hurt most will be the rank and file developers. Andrew Wilson may just have to hold off on his new yacht for a couple of months and we all know how painful that is. Far more painful than basic tier gamers waiting 3 extra weeks to play battlefield 5. (cause 8 > 3) Edited November 12, 2018 by wtflag Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speaking of things worth mentioning is that EA brought this upon themselves, you can only scam your own customers for so long, couple it with some sjw comments AND actions from their part that were really questionable at best.

Your AAA games market is being regulated at an increasing speed by the governments and they are now baning and forcing game producers to remove gambling loot-boxes from their games. The majority of the revenue from companies like EA comes from those precise gambling loot-boxes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarBaby2 Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 (edited) EA, Activision... gee, it's just like, I dunno, nickel and diming your customers, but investing as little effort as possible into your actual products, while simultaneously insulting and misrepresenting them (aided by the games media) is not very smart... or something.

Because they are treating their customers right (by and large) and do actual, creative work... it's not about A count or polish, it's about the actual quality of your product as well as behaviour towards your audience. It's a very delicate balance, and some big publishers are learning that the hard way right now... Edited November 12, 2018 by WarBaby2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mass effect Andromeda and Sonic Boom Rise of Lyric are examples of AAA games that the devs immediately abandoned after launch without proper bugfixing. I'm sure there's plenty more examples I'm forgetting too. Many of the less scrupulous AAA devs are likely to drop a game if it's too buggy. I'm also afraid that the 'if we stop working on updates to fix stuff' argument is valid because that's what they did for the first half of this year. And the community got up in arms about a Content Drought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you actually think EA games have no bugs and glitches - Mass Effect Andromeda disagrees - not to mention their AAA Star Wars MMO - Knights Of The Old Republic - where you pay a full priced monthly subscription for a 7 year old game that has more bugs than the planet Geonosis. What sets DE apart from EA is, that you can actually play their game for Free, if you want to. Plus you don't feel ripped off, if you chose to support DE by buying some Platinum - in contrast to EA.

That's the thing. EA and Activision spent millions to develop new methods of monetization, while not realizing that all your really need is: A good reputation!

CarrotSalad Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 I thought AAA studios tend to have around a thousand employees. DE in comparison arent anywhere near the numbers of employees last i heard it was around the 250 mark. Which would make it a mid tier studio at best.

Exactly - The most precious thing DE has is its good reputation - unfortunately EA has given up trying to restore its own reputation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
