Madden 19 and 20's requirements were 7, 8.1 and 10. 21 axes 7 and 8.1 in favor of 10 and Origin blocking you from installing on those OS's EA pulled the same move with NFS Heat. The current Madden engine for PC dates back to 2013. There's no excuse for EA to pull this lame move. 10 is buggy is general usability compared to 7 or 8.1. Windows 10 would randomly be laggy and unable to connect to the Internet or fail to synchronize with the Windows Time server resulting in a date way ahead of 2022 and breaking Windows Spotlight and required me to do a in place repair upgrade. These types of things never happened to me on Windows 7 or 8.1.
PCs are generally more powerful than Gen 9 consoles. I don't get it. I did get a warning for posting here, and I'm not entirely sure why, so I have to be careful (I think it was for @-ing the community managers), but I mean, for real? PC players are getting shafted.
