Will this be your last dice game?
- 4 years ago
I think this may be, all of our last DICE game. Personally, i hope this don't sound out of turn, but this just may be the straw that broke EA's back as far as patience with DICE.
Three years development, five studios assisting (including a NFS game having to be delayed), no campaign, another delay, and still not meeting expectations. This all compounded with DICEs history.
And can we say from BF 4 on these have been financial juggernauts for EA? Or unsustainable boondoggles EA can rid. After all, i seen Medal of Honor, their flagship at the time get sacked for much less reasons. EA still has Apex, their sports and maybe even the Star Wars license. Do they really need DICE?
A case can be made, Respawn and/or others can come out with a quality shooter, with a hell of a lot less development time, and likely come out with a much better product.
As sad as it is to say, DICEs hey day of yesteryear are long over, and if it were me i'd sack DICE, sell off the studio, or put them in as an assist, not at lead.
