I don’t know why?
These video game companies should be ashamed of themself. Especially EA sports to start off this rant.
Let’s talk about the Madden series and how it evolved. Rushing a game out there knowing it has tons of bugs and exploits. A server that people can easily finagle to get people kicked for an easy win.
Coming out with new game every season which is pretty much the same game every year, they just change the intro and some stuff in the game or putting old stuff they took out bringing it back as of its new.
Video game companies like EA often include supposed extensive pre-testing before release and large credits at the end of their games, yet they rush the release of their sports titles and other top tier games and somehow provide bug fixes throughout the year, often accompanied by massive updates. The Call of Duty franchise is also known for its large updates and its ineffective anti-cheat measures. It’s frustrating that we spend our hard-earned money on a mediocre gaming experience, only to find ourselves playing a version of the game that feels like a beta as bugs are resolved and gameplay issues are addressed over time. It raises the question of whether paying $40, $50, $60, $70, or even $80…
