Editing EA (section)

====Anthem====
In which the gutted, burnt out husk of a company that made its name with character-focused RPGs and storytelling was instead pushed to make a dull-as-dishwater, generic looter-shooter.  It's as bad as it sounds since the shooting was compromised by bad design, the looting was compromised by shitty monetization, the story was a bland afterthought and the entire experience was a massive waste of time, money, and worker blood, which catastrophically failed its corporate taskmasters.

Anthem was viewed as Bioware's last hope for a comeback, but sadly, it fell apart like so many other EA titles before it, working over what little trust was left after Mass Effect: Andromeda.  But hey, the Javelins look cool at least.
