They won't allow people to use both for a couple of reasons. One being you can set Origin to go straight to your library. They want you to see their store first in the hopes that something catches your eye and they make a sale.
Second is likely that reenabling access to Origin wouldn't look good to their bosses or their investors. They only care about their customers wallets and they couldn't give a damn if some people lose access to games.
"They only care about their customers wallets and they couldn't give a damn if some people lose access to games."
If that were true, then they'd restore game libraries, now myself and others who are missing the games that we already payed for, will not buy another EA game. lol They are losing customers now
@RohirrimKing92 They don't have to restore the libraries because they already have those people's money.
It's sad to say but a few people losing access to their games and not buying in the future is a drop in the ocean of cash they get from the countless Ultimate Team sales.
Monetarily this doesn't matter to EA. All that will do anything is if they start to get bad press. People don't just need to post here, they need to start getting the attention of the gaming press because bad PR is something EA will pay attention to.
Money that was already spent, years ago, now they will have no return business. The whole 'drop in the ocean' thing is illogical, it means losing money when they don't have to, for an app that doesn't work.
@RohirrimKing92 You can get if Ultimate Team sales were being hit by this it would be fixed in less than a day.
The simple fact is that the money are losing isn't enough to bother them. There's no bad press about this anywhere on the gaming news sites, so EA doesn't even have to act to try and protect what reputation they have left.
As bad as the EA App is there aren't going to be enough people who stop buying EA games because of it to even register with the people higher up at EA.
