This was a pretty interesting clip from their podcast (outside of maybe the middle third or so, when they started talking for a bit explicitly about Arcane [about which I have roughly zero interest, mainly because I have less than zero interest in its source material, League of Legends] and how good it supposedly is or whatever).
That said, I've talked about this topic at length in the past, and as such, I don't really have much new to say here, other than that I am still highly ambivalent in my stance on it.
Also, Pat at 34:31: "Should all of the studios that EA bought suffer because EA owns them now?"
Well, I mean, the studios that EA bought are already suffering (or else already long-since have been put out of their misery, like an old, sick dog dragged behind the woodshed), and this is intrinsically a direct result of the fact that they are owned by EA now, due to EA's explicit, highly visible, well known, and terrible business practices. This is completely irrespective of any other tangentially related evil, disgusting shit that EA may or may not potentially be doing behind the scenes that the general public hasn't heard about yet.
