@MayProtein I think time and energy are being invested. I don't think too much money is. There's a lot of us that have been playing since day one, and I've seen the quality of the game go drastically downhill. There was a time when yes we probably would throw some money down on some Apex packs, but I'm thinking that a lot of us are not doing that sort of investment, especially since the latest universal melee weapon costs $700 USD. They are obviously getting desperate for money, but it has nothing to do with reinvesting back in the game. That money goes straight into the pockets of the shareholders. Their belief is that if they keep releasing new and flashy and shiny stuff, the stupid masses will just buy it. There are some people pathetic enough to actually throw down money towards these people, and I feel really sorry for them. With that in mind I wholeheartedly agree that they ought to find something more productive with their lives. But as far as the gaming experience, Apex happens to be one of the best first person shooters out there. I love the mechanics of the game I love the characters, I love the gameplay. I would like it better if cheaters weren't as rampant as they are, but I still enjoy the game. I personally do not play ranked. I started off playing almost exclusively arenas. You'll find me now mainly in mixtape. The odd time you get an enjoyable match, or a win, and it is enough to still keep a person like me interested. I can hold my own, but I'm nowhere close to being predator status. I've noticed a lot more people not buying the new cosmetics, and like me they Echo the desire for the developers to actually fix the game. Trying to explain it to them that if they fix what is broken, long-term players such as myself, would be more inclined to pay some money into the system. As it stands, they fired many staff, the original developers, their quality control department, among others, the very people that would be able to fix the issues that we are seeing. Electronic Arts exists solely to take money from people and pay it to their shareholders. They could care less about delivering a quality product. They've been proud to be known as the worst company in the world for several years running, as it pertains to customer experience and support. Any franchise or title is destroyed as soon as electronic Arts gets a hold of it.
