Top Ten Reasons why Electronic Arts is Hated

What’s really sad is that I used to love EA. In the 2000s, they were one of the greatest video game companies out there, publishing triple-A games and some of the greatest franchises out on shelf, sometimes even surpassing the almighty Nintendo itself.

Sadly, this beast of a company started to degenerate as it entered the 2010s, with its excessive use of DLCs, loot boxes, and expansion packs. And that’s just the tip of the iceberg. Even though they still managed to publish stellar games like Battlefield 3/4/1 and Titanfall, they never seemed to learn their mistakes of their bad games. For these reasons EA is often considered as one of the worst video game companies of all time.

The Top Ten

1 Closing many other companies

They might even close BioWare because of Anthem. (BioWare is the company behind Mass Effect, Dragon Age and Star Wars: Knight of the Old Republic). I really hope they don't close them down, but honestly, they might as well close them down, because BioWare won't be able to make anything good under EA, unless they manage to separate from EA like the creators of Destiny did with Activision.

2 Star Wars Battlefront II loot box controversy

80$ to play as darth vader? , like in the multiplayer? ,

3 Lack of innovations in sports games

Same thing every year. No variety at all. Eh, they never change it, they're not bad, yet I hate them because they do the same thing again and again

4 Excessive DLCs

5 Battlefield V’s female soldiers

6 Mass Effect Andromeda facial animations

7 Mass Effect 3’s ending

8 Two consecutive "Worst Company of the Year" Awards

Good. I have some hope in humanity.

9 Simcity's mandatory online mode

10 Lack of content in Sims 4

The Contenders

11 Ruining what NFS once was
