I wouldn’t worry about what EA call the future of gaming and taking that as gospel.
This is the same company who last year pro claimed that single player games are dead; when actually there was overwhelming evidence to the contrary for many, many single player games both in terms of sales and awards with one title winning repeatedly. Awards which no EA title got a look in at.
This is EA who are now working on a single player game in spite of saying all single player games are dead.
This is the same EA who call loot boxes “fun surprise mechanics” in games they are marketing to children and who are fighting Belgium who do not allow loot boxes in their games.
This is the same EA who destroyed sim city by making it an online only game just to abandon it when it of course flopped. That in turn stopped The Sims 4 from being an online game and we all know how that turned out.
Anyone remember the flop that was the sims online? I do.
I’m not saying they aren’t foolish enough to try again with a sims 5. I think given half a chance they will try again. If they can make it a chargeable service and split dlc into even further pieces then I believe they would. I have no hope for sims 5. I’m just saying that EA aren’t known for listening to what their customer wants, they tell them what the customer wants and then more often than no it goes belly up.
