They saw consolidation as an anti-worker practice. EA unofficial line back then was that if devs didnrsquo;t like the crunch, they could go work somewhere else. If everything else was owned by Vivendi, Sony, and Microsoft, then those practices would be rife there, too. There was no
EA Sports FC 24 Coins escape. Ironically, the independent studios the EA Spouse mentions as potential outliers from consolidation and studios where devs might experience better working practices are Blizzard, Bioware, and Id. All have been accused of mass crunch in the 19 years since, and Blizzard ndash; probably the worst offender ndash; is about to become a part of the biggest gaming conglomerate on the planet.
Nothing changed in this industry. Devs still crunch to line executivesrsquo; pockets. They burn out, they develop chronic illnesses as a result of their passion for video games. That passion is weaponised, monetised, and they donrsquo;t see a fraction of the profits, but shoulder all of the cost. So Irsquo;ll leave you with the same question that the EA Spouse did 19 years ago, directed at EA CEO Larry Probst. I now direct it to the entire industry, to every CEO, executive, and boss, at studios big or small.
ldquo;When you make your profit calculations and your cost analyses, you know that a great measure of that cost is being paid in raw human dignity, right?

EAFC 24 Coins cut a FC tournament short in the 2021/24 season because he had to head to an IRL match. His opponent screenshotted the message that the Liverpool player sent to him and went viral, prompting Jota to perform a gaming celebration after one of his two goals in the match. The celebration, where he sits down on the pitch and plays with an invisible controller, was included in FC 24 in honour of the iconic moment. He says the celebration, or rather the fact he netted twice in a 4-0 rout of Southampton ldquo;saved my life, because otherwise the critics would have been circling. ldquo;That was more pressure than I needed for that moment, he says.
