End of Year

Here it is less than 2 weeks before NHL26. And the packs for sale are abysmal. Leave it to EA to hang on to the very end. Squeezing out every penny they can, profit wise. You would think that they would at least lower the cost. Or! Put cards of better ratings and worth in the packs. Its why this game will never be in the same realm of Madden. The Show or even the NBA games. This use to be a decent franchise. Where community meant something to the developers. But now. Its bring out the almost same game, year after year with a new player on the cover. Trying to find better ways of creating profit over betterment of the game.

    And better Ratings? 21% to 97+? These are numbers that don't  normally exist at EA. Or the 95+ Mini Pack. 

    And what you want to say with Penny is a mystery to me, anyone who still buys points 5 days before NHL 26 is to blame for the whole problem.

    Packs aren't cheap in Madden either, EA's goal is always to make as much money as possible with these rip-off/scam packs, that's why there are no points to buy in Belgium and South Korea, these countries have recognized what is wrong with EA's gambling mechanics.

    And NBA? Holy **bleep**, 2K is even greedier than EA

    I'm always complaining about EA on Twitter, not just about the NHL Series, but what you're doing is just weird ... why do you even play anymore?

    Lol. You do not do your self any validity in your replies. The text was a retaliatory quip at EA for their total lack of appreciation regarding the community. Your comment associates that I personally am affected by their lacklustre approach to empathy regarding being open to a bit more generosity. I am not. However. There are others who play this game long after the season is over. I'm sure unlike yourself who ran out an pre-ordered 26. They may not have that luxury. And as for your commentary about other games being worse than NHL. Perhaps you should re-evaluate your comment.  Its not all about pack cost. Its what is offered above and beyond in issuance of game material that puts them above.  Do yourself a favour. And read comments for their intent, before making your assumptive rebuttals.  Your comment about Penny? What are you talking about. Buying points? Not sure you even graspsed what was said or intended. And you show arrogance to those who still buy packs with your shortsighted comment.
