    That is why I hope the publisher would be Microsoft. No grief.

    If that's the case, hopefully they will keep support for Linux.

    I really don't need another Windows game :)

    EA/Microsoft aren't really studios. They have studios but they are publishers. And I sincerely doubt they have any interest in acquiring SOTA.

    Huh? I never said they would.
    And yes, they are publishers. But you know....publishers would NEVER take a hand in changeing the game if they think it would sell better wih the changes *coff*EA*coff*.
    My point was that Microsofft usually let their studios work if it doesn't get out of hand like with WC Privateer. While EA seems to micromanaget every aspect of development but usually never to the betterment of the game.

    True. But when you regularly make the press cycle outside of gaming for stuff like...
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criti...sumerist_rating_as_"Worst_Company_in_America"
    and
    https://nordic.ign.com/star-wars/28...x-controversy-we-hit-rock-bottom-ea-dice-says
    etc, then you do have a perception issue.

    However as you say, they do bring a lot of dough to their titles which result in big teams and big games. That is undeniable.
    There is a reason why so many studios agree to be bought by them.
