I still can't believe EA just shut down Bioware.

Of course considering who just bought EA (PIF, a Saudi fund + Kushner and some other asshats) and it all makes sense. But I'm still shocked and really sad.

Bullfrog, Origin, Mythic, Westwood, Maxis and others.

As for Bioware - Mass Effect Andromeda, Anthem, Dragon Age: The Veilguard.

EA's prior behaviour combined with Bioware's recent performance would be enough for this to make sense.

This also isn't unusual with what's happening across the AAA gaming industry; take a look at the layoffs at Microsoft.

Bioware is a cadaver. All the original people are gone, they aren’t even a shadow of their former self.
