If EA can't turn a profit on a high quality product, that says more about them than the developer. The product for the first 2 games, and even arguably the third was a high quality one. They destroy immersion, gate off content, and are only good for the publisher. Plus there's 0 chance that visceral WANTED to put them in. You can say the microtransactions aren't a factor, but they're listed as a stain on the game's quality in EVERY review that came out for DS3. They set sales targets for a HORROR game that were more appropriate for a modern military shooter, and they compromised the artistic integrity that made the games popular in order to increase short term profitability.
That's unheard of performance for a developer.ĮA is the one that failed. Hell, they literally shipped the game 2 weeks early and completed their QA ahead of schedule. How did Visceral fail? They made an award winning game that got 2 sequels and is still being talked about 14 years later. EA shut them down because their team failed to meet standards with EA, they were shut down not out of malice, stop having a hate boner for EA. TL DR if you’re a fucking asshole: Visceral Games is just as much at fault as EA, if not more so at fault for the 9-10 year long hibernation of the franchise. Returning to the micro transactions, nobody is forcing you, has forced you, nor will force you to buy the micro transactions, all of these micro transactions are merely cosmetic or serve almost no difference in gameplay.
However, blaming EA for every issue, saying it’s all their fault and only their fault is not only stupid, but makes no sense. Finally after failing so many times, EA drops their foot and says “you’re done.”ĮA is a business, they shut down visceral games because they were not good for business, this is nothing against the games of Dead Space. Dead Space 3 failed to meet expectations, they moved them to battlefield and then THEY STILL FAILED. The only reason EA shut down Visceral Games is because THEY FAILED. I’m sick and tired of hear the “Microtransaction” argument.
