Of course, these people are being absurd and ridiculous. And EA has a message to them: women in Battlefield 5 are here to stay. That is not negotiable. And if these people don’t like it, they are free to not buy the game.
In an interview with Gamasutra, EA’s COO Patrick Söderlund said, “We stand up for the cause, because I think those people who don’t understand it, well, you have two choices: either accept it or don’t buy the game. I’m fine with either or.”
Which is, damn. It’s a lot like the kinds of things Bethesda said when marketing Wolfenstein 2 last year, which criticized Nazis (which, incredibly enough, actually got people upset- you’d think criticizing Nazis would be a pretty non-controversial thing to do). I don’t even like EA or Battlefield much, but guess what, EA? You’ve earned a sale from me this year.
Battlefield 5 launches on PS4, Xbox One, and PC this October.
