There's a massive gulf between EA and Devolver Digital regarding financial capabilities and the number of games released over the years. The former is considered a giant in its space, with several reputed titles over the years, while the latter is a much younger company established in the late 2000s. As great as Electronic Arts are, they have an infamous reputation that many in the gaming community strongly dislike.Devolver Digital@devolverdigitalSomeone’s gonna buy EA then find out there’s like 10 more smaller purchases after you own it to get all the content.80891087Someone’s gonna buy EA then find out there’s like 10 more smaller purchases after you own it to get all the content.Several games under the EA banner involve unlocking more content with additional real-life purchases. The epitome of this was in one of the Star Wars games, where a few characters were locked behind additional paywalls. The practice has been frequently criticized, and Devolver Digital decided to mock it in a rather cheeky manner. This satirical tweet quickly led to fans and community members expressing their opinions on the issue.Devolver Digital trolls EA over the latter's practice of locking content behind a paywallThe original tweet was made by Devolver Digital on May 20, as the publisher had a really funny take. They commented that they would realize that they have only received a handful of the studios when someone buys EA and will need to pay more to acquire the remaining studios. It's easy to understand what the tweet referred to.In the past, games like Star Wars: Battlefront II had popular characters locked behind a paywall despite it being a full-priced game. Fans who had previously criticized the gaming giant expressed their opinions once again. One user asked why someone would like to acquire EA in the first place since all they make are copy/pasted content.RageBait@BaitedRage@devolverdigital Why even buy EA anyway? They are 90% copy/paste sports games and increasingly out of touch FPS. Whoever is thinking about buying them is better off hiring people to make their own titles.2@devolverdigital Why even buy EA anyway?

This was reminded by a fan that any buyer will have to keep buying every year to get an improved version.Hinty@HintysVoice@devolverdigital @ManyATrueNerd Someones gonna buy EA, then find out that they have to buy it again next year if they want a version with any improvements.1@devolverdigital @ManyATrueNerd Someones gonna buy EA, then find out that they have to buy it again next year if they want a version with any improvements.Of course, the tweet by Devolver Digital was quite outspoken and savage.David Faulkner@faulkie87@devolverdigital1@devolverdigital https://t.co/LJRYsezy7QWhile the tweet was surely made in humor, many fans agreed with what Devolver Digital cheekily mentioned. However, if there is an escalation, it will be something to look out for in the future.
