Okay but why dead space though?

Is DS2 remake incoming?
Why celebrate a game EA effectively shut down after a single update, leaving it with unfixed issues like persistent obnoxious traversal stutter while also moving Motive to work on iron man AND denying their pitch for DS2 remake even though they wanted to make it right after DS1 remake.

It appears to be just tone deaf on so many fronts, the choice, the reasoning and why in BF6 out of all games - the fact that it's fellow EA IP doesn't magically make it fit.

The obvious £$€ equation: EA Horror IP + Halloween in October = Skin Revenue ?

Yeah i suppose someone might've had the idea that's an excellent choice for Halloween themed skins but like jesus christ lmao.

Halloween is next month and Dead Space is definitely amongst EA’s spookiest IP

Scraping the barrel for “collabs” from IPs they own

Expect the same from Mass Effect, maybe even Crysis

Normies won't care about any of that

They'll just think Dead Space guy is cool

Top Gun habe ich auch nicht verstanden. TG Maverick erschien 2022.

Are you new to the franchise? There was a DS skin in 2042.

The playerbase is the product.

maybe if you waited for EA to actually discuss the skin, you would have more info.

But asking deep strategy questions after the first incomplete datamine gets you more Karma I suppose

Day 247 of pushing for a Grandpa filter so I can disable in game cosmetics client side.

Hell, make me pay 20 bucks for Grandpa mode and Dice will get live service money out of me. Win win

Hey don’t forget Plants vs Zombies. That one is extremely spooky. Especially the night levels.

People would have pissed, shidded and cummed 10 years ago if they could play as Isaac or Prophet in BF4
