Will you ever support anything EA again?

Nope.

Most people who played the game have quit. Thats why they sold around 2.4 million boxes and the have around 500k subs left now. To say most people who play the game actually like it, is false.

People still post because they still have time remaining on a cancelled sub. You can buy more the 1 month at a time you know. If you buy a 6 month sub and quit after 3, you dont get a 3 month refund.

Havent paid EA a dime since the EA_spouse came out and exposed how horrible of a company they were (except for TOR of course, and im somewhat regretting that now as well) . Thank the force for used games, rentals, and most of all .... *cough*

Theyve only strengthened that hate since then. Now not even an online only, subbed-to game will convice me to give them a dime.

Again, hope I live to see the day EA goes out of business. Id throw a freakin party.

Even if SWTOR becomes pay to win, I will not hate a corporation. A corporation is a piece of paper. Management can change and will if EA's actions alienate too many.

I can't say either way with this type of question. I really don't care who makes and who publishes a game. Of course I will take more notice of games that are created/published by a company that has a solid track record, but that alone is not the deciding factor in my purchase of a game.

I certainly plan on taking a closer look at the new SimCity game because I am a fan of the franchise and have enjoyed all the previous iterations to one extent or another. Business is business, and to the unwashed masses, all corporations are greedy and evil and out to destroy everything we love. However, I prefer to take the stance on if I like it, I will buy it and play it. If I don't, then I won't - regardless of the names attached to the creation.

If BioWare weren't named on the game, I probably wouldn't have bought it. I knew, of course, that EA owned BioWare but I guess I had some sort of silly hope that they hadn't permeated the organization yet.

I was wrong, of course. I'll never buy another game with the EA logo on the box.

I will never again buy a game at full price from ea and that's just because ea is on it.
plus I will not buy DA3 for sure because I still feel betrayed about DA2 (took 100% money and gave 50% rpg).

I really hope EA's bad reputation will finally change something (either ea going down or something really drastically happening like the whole management fired or something).

they are constantly messing with their customers. Its time to show them they can't get away with it, the only vote that really counts is the vote with your wallet.

It's a funny thing. EA was once considered one of the best dev/pubs out there. Then they misfired with a few franchises and the hatred began. It lasted for several years. Then EA came out with a few new franchises and went some incredible leaps forwards in their current franchises. Guess what? Everybody loved EA again (and found a new target in Activison). Now there's SWTOR and a remake of NFS: Most Wanted and everybody is ganging up on EA again.

I will support any good product out there, no matter if EA has developed, published or even glanced at it. EA is one of the biggest players on the market, so they wll hit and miss many times. Too bad the misses are a reason to bring out the torches and pitch forks.

People hate EA because they buy up new IPs created by small companies which are popular, Then milk them into oblivion by cashing in on the IP instead of keeping the quality of what made the game popular to begin with.

Yeah probably. I would probably check out the new Sim City because I have always liked that series. I didn't love DA2 but I would not sacrifice my first born to see it never happen so I'd cautiously check out DA3. Yes I hated the end of ME3 like everyone else but it didn't taint the whole game for me and unfortunately they make the only NHL Hockey game so what can ya do.
