Is EA incapable of releasing quality games?

After Mass Effect: Andromeda and Star Wars: Battlefront II, can we write off EA as a company incapable of releasing a quality product? Quality is apparently not part of the company's culture. I don't see why we should expect Anthem to be any less of a disaster than these two games. At least EA still has sports titles. [spoiler]For reference, here's the sad story of Mass Effect: Andromeda: [url]https://kotaku.com/the-story-behind-mass-effect-andromedas-troubled-five-1795886428[/url] And here are the review scores for Star Wars: Battlefront II: [url]http://www.metacritic.com/game/playstation-4/star-wars-battlefront-ii[/url] Need for Speed Payback also looks like a crap game, but who hadn't written off that franchise?[/spoiler]

    Battlefront 2 is actually good, the neutered score is purely out of reaction to the micro controversy. Andromeda as a concept was awesome the graphical errors destroyed its rep much in the same way the micro controversy affected battlefront Also EA’s sports titles are a travesty, they are well executed with few bugs but they’re just the same thing over and over with different slider and tuner settings and updated rosters (which honestly could be done with an update). Occasionally a new engine gets put in but that’s rare. Players of EA sports titles are also a massive part of the micro income for EA that led them to believing they should put micros in Star Wars. Ultimate Team is one of the worst offenders for micro transactions.
