I have friends who work for Ubisoft, and I'm not spending any of my money on their games. It's not like the few pennies my purchase would contribute to their paycheck really matters.

Hell, if it's about supporting your mate specifically, give them the money directly and pirate the game you want. More chance they'll see so much as a dime for it.

Buying the game and making it successful, wpuld get him fired not paid better, like any other dev team that recently dropped banger games.

Every time a good game comes out, and it sells well, the dev team is laid off.

I'm so mad about it. I've been playing Sims since it first came out. I'm embarrassed to admit how much money I put into that game. As soon as the announcement that there was going to be a buy out, I stopped all purchases. But Iove the game. And I spent so much money on it. I'll probably continue to play what I have. 🫤

That being said, I did buy Paralives and while it's not the same feels as Sims, it's close. I just need a better computer to play.

Archetype Studios, which is comprised of some of the Ex-Bioware developers that worked on Mass Effect are making the game "Exodus" coming out next year. I will pick that up and support a smaller studio instead. It might be a little rough around the edges since they don't have EA resources but it still seems to be sticking to the spirit of what made Mass Effect so good.

Same but I would encourage anyone who hasn’t cancelled gamepass to do so until they pull EA from the package deal and lower costs accordingly.

My last one was the Battlefield 1942 complete collection. So, 20 years here.

You can seed ea game torrents. Not play them, just seed.

About the same for me. I'm a Sims player so I pirated what I wanted. Now I run it on steam.

I think the last one I bought new was Burnout Paradise

lemme guess, this bunch was also the ones gunning to 'buy' the world cup itself....

I assumed that they're buying things that some people like in the hopes that they'll glean some of that like for themselves.

The Saudi family has long been a font of cruelty, ruthlessness and abuse of power, long before Mr. Bone Saw.

This is such a beautiful line - I shall need to borrow it from time to time. Thank you for sharing!

A friend of mine got Paralives for her birthday, and says it has its charm.

gotta delete the app off my pc
