Title: EA on the backlash against women in Battlefield V: ‘Accept it or don’t buy the game’
Reason: User banned (1 Week): Downplaying sexism
This is so stupid. EA changing the narrative and making this issue about sexism. The main problem ppl have about this game is not that we can play as women. It is about their change in direction. Since a long time Battlefield has been about a realistic approach to the military shooter genre while CoD was always the more action oriented approach. Now it seems like EA wants to go after the CoD audience with whacky face paints, edgy prothesis and random samurai swords. It is no wonder that (some) long time fans of the series are upset and make their voice be heard. This is EAs PR-Team in full throttle and it's sad how many people are eating out of the palm of their hands. I'm 100% sure, if the game was presented differently ppl wouldn't have cared that there are fighting women in the game. Look at battlefront, nobody cared that there are female stormtroopers. TL/TR: EA are betraying their long term fans to go after the CoD market, long term fans are upset, EA spins the narrative about sexism to discredit those ppl.
