It’s official: EA is going private.
The leveraged buyout will be financed by a staggering $20 billion of debt, which likely means some *aggressive* cost cutting is ahead for EA in the coming months and years.

In a deal involving a company owned by Jared Kushner, a company that is basically just the Saudis, and $20B of debt.
The Command and Conquer series has only a few or no equivalent right now, as far as I know.
There is INZOI, which should be superior to the Sims series, but its hardware requirements are very demanding.
Despite the existence of superior racing sims, some people still play NFSU2 but enhanced with mods.
I’m saying because in some places people like the games more than the corporation owning those titles (and sitting on, while keep on selling the games with the loot boxes), they’ll just pirate those copies.
Paralives I expect to gain a decent following for life sim games it should release fully early next year from my understanding. Inzoi, from what I gather, is not it, and I doubt it’s doing well.
I don’t know much about ea’s sports games. I also come from the pov of a mostly console player. I have a Lenovo go, but I only can play less demanding games on it.
It’s funny, when I got it, I was so stoked to play the sims 4 with mods. Wow what a headache it is to mod the game with constant flood of mod/game breaking updates. Too much of a headache.
Fleshed out games at release. Mods should be an afterthought, not a necessity, same for pirating. I want to give good devs money for their good games. Anything less, it’s not worth my time or self respect.
Or just find a better game. There are plenty of games where you’re not expected to pay and download additional files to have rain.
