As an Ex BioWare and EA employee of 13 years, I can certainly tell you, Maxis and BioWare are separate studios with separate decisions. EA does own them but the decision is not related. I can say, however, EA sets the bar way too damn high. I’m just waiting for it to bite them in the ass. I feel like it’s already started.
How are these things even related?
EA just laid off a bunch of BioWare employees.
I’m well aware. How does them re-releasing older games make this worse?
