Lol, LMAO even.
It's so sweet of them to think that I don't play their games because I play on linux and not because I want EA software in my computer as much as I want to drink a shot of arsenic.
What's a good alternative to their sports games, like EA FC 25 which I've been playing a lot recently?
Old FIFAs and PESs are playable by emulating consoles. Some of them have mods for modern players.
Literally the exact same game every year, just play the older one.
It's the only version of that game I have, so the question remains whether there's any alternative that isn't by EA at all.
This is why monopolies on teams and player likenesses for games is a bad thing.
Sensible Soccer.
Yes. I'm super pleased that EA appears to be doing the right thing, here.
Absent everything thing else EA does and stands for, I would applaud this move by buying something from them sometime.
That said, I will continue to abstain from EA games for another few decades. I like the "sense of pride and accomplishment" it gives me.
