Name a company more evil then EA

[Mubashureta]

EA killed burnout EA, overworks employees what else????
just try

 

[RustySK]

Disney.

... Pretty much any company or corporation large enough will inevitably start doing monstrous shit for the sake of profit optimization. Which is apparently okay because money.

 

[Stingy Perry Stingy Perry]

Nintendo

 

[Bonkers225]

SNK. Owned by the Saudi prince. I win.

 

[Questless Knight]

Nr 1 evil of all time Nintendo. Then we got
Warner bros
Disney
Ubisoft
Blizzard to the point they made a female employ end her self thanks to sexual harassment.


Honestly EA is barely evil today they just a bit greedy and do some dumb shit.

 

[fake-kun]

Ubisoft. Have a history of sexism and sexual harassement culture, and just as greedy as EA.

 

[Retro Doomer]

The Government.....Okay Jokes aside sir Officer
I would Probably Say Nintendo rarely seen a Company that is so Anti Gamer like Nintendo
Oh and I don't trust Disney god who knows what they do behind closed doors.
And probably most Oil Companies
Ea is shitty and very greedy but they are saints Compared to some of the Satanic and outright evil stuff some other Companies do,well the bar is pretty low tough.

 

[ThunderBoy]

 

[Tortuga]

Ubisoft, Nintendo, Activision

 

[Retro Doomer]

Not implying anything but the Red Bad Man is probably a huge fan of Nintendo.

Remember when Yamauchi Hiroshi decided to follow the same capitalistic practices as Nintendo of America to squeeze more money out of Famicom developers all the way back in 80s Japan? Good times.

The names I always used to hear thrown were Monsanto and Nestlé. From what I gather, Monsanto tries (tried?) to push seeds that bore produce which does not produce further seeds. And way back when, the then-current CEO of Nestlé was quoted as saying that water is not a basic human right. Probably taken out of context though, you know how news is.

 

[Cantarella]

Debeers? Blackwater? It's not that hard.

 

[qw90700]

Since it's a video game industry topic and Microsoft is closely into it and many other "evil" industries I would just say number 1 is Microsoft and leave it at it especially because what they do is beyond whatever is related to video game to computer and stuff, they directly negatively effect how people live in this world no matter where they live therefore I dare say existence of Microsoft negatively impact future of humanity!!! I already got a warning for my dark humour so can't use a significant part of this website already so I don't wanna get more warnings therefore I'll just leave it at it!!! lolol

I'd say that at least the Famicom saved video games as a whole after the crash so the context is different.

Ubisoft. Have a history of sexism and sexual harassement culture, and just as greedy as EA.

Most importantly: because they're french.

SNK. Owned by the Saudi prince. I win.

I don't want this thread to turn political but at least the USA is a democratic system. Monarchies (of absolute power) have no place in the 21st century I think.



Maybe that'll be a hot take but I'd say Sega are awful as a company for screwing up decades of history and acting as if they still got it when they no longer do.

Hey rather a Warning than to get a knock on your Door for thought Crimes like here in Germany where I have to walk on eggshells.Anyway yeah there far to many companies far to Evil
Blackrock for examples comes to mind our current chancellor worked for them if he doesn't still work for them.

Blackrock after I critic them

They also have there Evil Hands in Gaming just saying as this is relevant to this Forum but Naturally they have far more evil stuff they do.Its the Richest Company in the World if I remember right for a good reason.

Have you tried not being a xenophobe, or is that too hard for a Gamer™ like you?

Dude, making jokes about fr*nch is a meme and I am literally french. I understand that humour is relative and that not everyone would find it funny but you're reacting a bit too quickly.


Of course Ubisoft sucks for rushing their game and because of their toxic work environment.


On the other hand Sega aren't saints either. Not as bad as other companies but they shouldn't be ignored for their screw ups.

 

[jmdenza78]

Imagine buying up a load of very competent and successful game studios, then destroying them one by one with layoffs and shuttering, regardless of profit margin, and not being more evil than EA. It may be EA's little brother. If those two corps did the fusion dance the entire mainstream game industry might vanish from existence.

Would you be okay with people making jokes about hating black people? No? Then stop justifying xenophobia with "memes."

A French cement company. It made deals with the Assad government and terrorist groups to keep its plant in Alabiya operating between 2012 and 2014, in northeastern Syria.

You're comparing to different things with different contexts.

Feeling offended over something like that isn't worth it

Furthermore if we go outside of video games I agree with the one about Nestlé because removing access to clean water for some populations is worse than any greedy scheme from any entertainment company.

Thus the quote "never negotiate with terrorists".

 

[Dyne]

I simply cannot understand the Nintendo hate.

They are overzealous about copyright/emulator stuff. Absolutely. I wish they were more lax about it but its their IP and I think it kind of sucks but thats it.

They charge more for their product than you want them to. Okay... if their product isn't worth the price they're asking, dont buy it. They have every right to charge what they want.

Seriously, how are they "evil"?

Not to mention actively developing and contributing to AI/Cloud software that's used by militaries to murder people, most recently by the IDF in the ongoing genocide in Gaza.

You can be annoyed at many game companies for very valid reasons, but no game-adjacent company has blood on its hands quite like Microsoft.
