The problem people have with your argument is not the existence of 5.1 surround sound.

Nor is it that the vast majority of households can’t afford a properly tuned surround sound setup instead of haphazardly throwing speakers around which arguably creates a worse experience than stereo.

It’s that the Dolby implementation requires publishers to license it and pay for an unstoppable ad that plays before every session, while benefitting only the petit bourgeois.

Notice how you reverted so quickly to your capitalist brainwashing. May be a good inspiration to see what other ideologies have been implanted into you.

I’m hearing a lot of OG Homeworld fans turned off by this one.

Instead of retaining unique charm, they spent a shitload of money on generic video game story #6 and generic wet-looking cutscene render #4.

Simultaneously, many core gameplay mechanics were dumbed down and made more palatable for the masses.

It’s a tough pivot to make, but what else are fans of the genre gonna play hahahah

I like how you completely ignored how your entire point of view makes no sense and chose to pick apart an analogy that is perfectly appropriate for the situation

You must be pretty young, just keep enjoying your days.

Stay in school and maybe you’ll find out multi-billion dollar companies manage millions of dollars in inventory and data using one analyst manually fixing incomprehensibly large Excel sheets lmao

Of all EA games one could spew this take on, imagine choosing one of the star examples of the system succeeding and delivering a win-win-win for dev, gamers, and the publisher

Gamers and having literacy of reality in 2024, lmao

Mate there’s no such thing as washable healthcare items unless it can survive an autoclave lmao

My brother in Christ, those are literally not game DLCs. You can just not buy it and still get the exact same game.
