Hey look, it's Cliffy B saying something stupid again. He seems to do that a lot.
Whoa, wait, why does that seem so familiar? Oh, right, it's because he seems to do that a lot.
Voting with my dollars, though? Sure thing. That's easy enough to do, given that I've already said that I have zero intention of buying any future EA games (outside of The Sims, as I already mentioned before, since that's my one weakness, but even then, like I also said, I still don't do microtransactions.)
"I assure you there are teams of analysts studying the numbers behind consumer behavior over there that are studying how you, the gamer, spends his hard earned cash."
Yes, and that's part of the goddamn problem, Cliffy. Analysts and shareholders and corporate executives and shit like that, a lot of whom don't even actually play games at all, where there used to be just programmers and artists and designers and such, all of whom actually played the games they made and others. Sure, the latter still exist, but they have to kowtow to the former these days, and that's terrible.
