I know, my comment was mostly...i dunno facetious...sarcastic?? I did read the article...it wasn't EA's influence that led to the game's direction it that case...i just thought it was funny that EA got involved in the series at the point where they started going for visuals over gameplay. Seemed fitting for what EA would eventually do. >If EA didn't exist, it's very likely that Origin would have either been bought out by some other company or collapsed I know...my wonderings were more... 'What would video games look like today if corporate profit as a primary motive hadn't won out and major game studios still made games with that nostalgic 80's-90's gameplay first ethos i'm likely looking back at with rose tinted glasses...' Still...sometimes i wish games had gone more the way me and my cousins and friends had always hoped they would back in the days 3d games started emerging rather than the profit driven, microtransaction oriented, interactive movies video games actually became...largely driven by the companies mentioned in my earlier comment.
