    I personally think that if valve with their size managed to make a game and maintain their infrastructure for other publishers to use, wtf did the competitor do this whole time?

      It’s definitely a cultural problem. Companies like EA are completely clueless on the needs or desires of the average gamer. Their idea is to shape those needs and desires how they see fit. It’s why they spend so much on advertising and viral marketing rather than making good products.

      They hire 1/10th of Valves developer count and spend the entire budget on marketing.

      It appears to work really well seeing how people keep buying Ubitrash and EA games no matter how bad the previous one was.
