FUCK EA.

Hope this was a lesson to anybody still playing their garbage.

Haven't bought an EA title in years and no regrets. It's like donating to the GOP at this point.

Edit: I mean if DJT started a gaming company that's EA.

They lost me at the release of Battlefield 3 with hundreds of bugs, many completely game breaking.

For example:

To this day, there are still times when you can fire a tank at a jet, and SEE the explosion happen and then the jet still keeps on flying even though you scored a direct hit on it with a TANK SHELL.

I say to this day because the bug was still in there when I stopped playing and they had certainly stopped working on it.

I was addicted to that garbage that Apex is. I am happy they removed Linux support.
