You know that's 100% accurate. It's EA. If there's anything that seems good for players, it's a mistake.

Releasing a new full price sandbox game instead of keeping supporting the old one (even if it's mostly in the form of DLCs) is not good for the gamers.

Selling jpegs as addons is good for gamers?

All they're doing with DLC is milking existing code.
