I don't preorder anything, or buy anything until way after it's release, anymore. I haven't been burned, myself, but I know a lot of people have been. I also don't trust any trailers made by the company. They're either pointless cinematics that tell you nothing, or carefully curated sections. They're trying to sell a product, after all.

Trust me, wait until a game has been released and plenty of reviews have come out for it. That way, you know what you're getting into.

EA is just straight up an evil company. I refuse to buy EA games because their business practices are just a whole bag of nope

It's the current gaming industry. It's basically trying to get rid of gaming history so they can sell the latest overpriced dogshit filled with loot boxes.

I don't know why people won't go back to older games. They're still there and a lot of them are still supported. If people want an FPS experience, just load up any CoD game from the past five years.

Why even bother playing a game that came out years ago and is so obviously a cash grab?

Morality is subjective to the society that creates them.

Technically, it is contract killing for the US. US military sign a three year contract, and they're expected to perform their duties which can include killing people. For some other countries, not so much.
