What would happen if EA owned halo? I personally think that the game would be dead, cuz first, EA just releases the game with a lack of content at day 1, it would be filled with awful loot boxes and a pay to win microtransactions.
EA doesn’t care what gamers want, they just want money and lie about the trailers and making it downgraded. I think they would make the story and MP poor. I hope Microsoft makes the story good and MP awesome, with all content at day 1 with still few updates.
It’ll probably suck as in: it would look decent enough and play decent enough and be nothing remarkable (so far that’s H4/5 in a nutshell but hey). Then they’ll add micro transactions, season passes and an EA account/pass thingy that nobody wants. They’d also throw in horrible UI and made sure it ran on Frostbite.
Then, after a year we’d get another one and another one a year after etc.
Just like all third party acquisitions (Bioware, Oddworld Inhabitants and plenty more) they’d pressure to make mainstream stuff without soul or quickly burn out the studio until it’s only a shell of its former self.
