    This is great! It’s not often I have a chance to stick it to the Kushners and Saudis without changing any habits. I was already boycotting EA just for sucking in general.

      I boycotted them accidentally. Making like 3 games in a decade that I’m interested in will do that.

      I think the next step is to make sure that every EA game that’s release, especially those on Steam, we remind people, especially the MAGA ones, that EA is not making American games great again.

    So Affinity Partners might finally start making a profit? Let’s hope not! Fuck EA. I hope they get broken up and sold off like they’ve done to so many talented studios.

    The acquisition will not be finalized until the 2027 fiscal year, which begins in September 2026. Until then, EA customers should expect no changes to the company or EA gameplay experience.

    They act like that’s a positive…

    Hard to ruin something EA has been sloppily shitting all over for the past 15+ years.

    I struggle to see how this has any real impact to anyone who already sees EA for what they are.
