WHY COULDN'T THE EA BUYOUT HAVE BEEN TRUE? I think I would honestly do anything for that feeling of satisfaction that would come from seeing two of the three companies that are responsible for the depression of the gaming market kill themselves like a headless, thrashing snake; they've killed any drive for innovation, which obviously includes new IPs, but that also includes the fact that devs don't make decent new engines/systems anymore. Why bother, when you can just copy/paste old, pomegranatety ones, or make new ones for nothing and call it state of the art? I think the issue even bigger than that is, by killing innovation, they have killed the drive to satisfy the customer, and have brought about a new wave of companies that use gamers as a literal cash cow instead of an actual audience.
