Josef Fares, the film director turned game director behind Brothers: a Tale of Two Sons and the upcoming A Way Out, is quite the character. His enthusiasm for his game shines through, he doesn’t mince his words, and he’s a lot of fun to talk to.
We recently sat down to play a few snippets of A Way Out ahead of its release next week – read our impressions here – playing alongside and chatting with Fares along the way. Out of this came an interesting tidbit about how the game has been financed under the EA Originals brand:
The Pokemon Company had retail sales worth of 10.8 billion US Dollars in the year 2023, based on the latest report.
that merch tho.
ridiculous the numbers they pull in, which makes it even worse when i think about the low budget broken games they make. or have made recently

That's how EA works. They shower a dev with support while they're new, once they build up their success, they short-end them, buy them out, and squeeze every last monetary drop from their products before throwing them in the pit.
edit: Look at Respawn Entertainment
EA you snakes, lying between your teeth, and shedding crocodile tears. Summary what a croc of BS.
Of course they won’t make a single dollar. They’ll make more than that.
That's a load of crap. There is no way EA is not making any money on any sale of this game.
Yea right, they’re just doing it all completely for free. I really hate it when people say stupidly ridiculous lies & take people for idiots.
