Despite assurances from management, some workers believe the company will be subject to censorship by its new owners.

    I’ve been ‘fuck EA’ for a long time, but this buyout has guaranteed I’ll never touch another of their games again under any circumstances.

      I’ll never touch another of their games again under any circumstances.

      What about the circumstance of having pirated the game?

          You’re asking the wrong question. They absolutely have games that are worth the effort, the question is “will they make new games that worth the effort?”
          It’s surprising that isn’t obvious.
