Seriously people. There’s no hidden agenda behind the switch from premium to live service, and it’s certainly not something that’s happened because of whining from the community or youtubers. It’s simply that EA’s accountants have looked at how games like Fortnite, CS:GO and RS6 make tons of money every month from microtransactions, and figured out that they can make more money selling cosmetics than by selling maps.
