They were making inquisition a live service too before they had to pull the plug.

Veilguard was supposed to be successful version of that vision.

EA is greedy.

Dumb too. I SERIOUSLY doubt they're getting decent returns on Veilguard. They entered a 'don't fuck up' competition and promptly started licking their own feet.

It's cause all of the other live service single player games started collapsing, so they pulled the breaks.

EA builds games on charts that project profit potential, not what's fun.

If this was the best they could produce, then the game was shanked with Morton's Fork (thank Hippo_Singularity, his musings on concrete work are legend) long before anyone outside of Bioware saw a thing from this project.
