They made a fan council to work on the remaster a few years ago and chucked a ton of archival stuff in there, too. That thing was one of the, if not THE best, most community-focused retro remasters I’ve seen. Admittedly, I think it wasn’t developed internally, but hey, they greenlit all that.

EA gets a bad rap for legitimate stuff, but they also tend to not get credit when they do actually cool things because they make such a great punching bag. They have great accessibility standards, that they started making mandatory before other AAA devs did. They open sourced a bunch of their accessibility tools recently, too. They were also one of the first (first? second?) online platforms to offer unconditional refunds on digital games. I remember because it’s one of the things that surprises people when I remind them that Steam REALLY didn’t want refunds and only caved due to regulation.

If you’re trying to reconcile that with whatever else you don’t like them doing, maybe it’s a good time to remind people that corporations aren’t people. There are tons of people working in all corpos and most of them don’t even suck as human beings.

Apply the same thing to Ubisoft, Activision, Microsoft and whatever other game dev you like to hate, incidentally. Not Twitter, though. Everybody left at Twitter probably sucks.
