EA has rightly taken a battering in recent weeks over its use of microtransactions and loot crates in Star Wars: Battlefront II.

This company does not make games for people to enjoy themselves, they make games to generate cold, hard cash, and screw the gamers.

This video shows how EA (and other companies) are building pay-to-play and pay-to-win mechanics into games in order to squeeze as much money out of gamers as possible.

It’s a funny parody, but there’s a truth underlying it which makes me, as a casual gamer, sad. I just want to play games, and not have to pay a small fortune for the privilege.
