Doesn't the EA eula let them add lootboxes, microtransactions and whatnot even after the game is released?

The "EA Originals" that they have put out have mostly been fairly solid, Hazelight's games especially so.

Eternals of Aveum had its fair share of flaws, but it was a complete package.

Though, because it is EA, I cannot help but wonder if/when they'll pull the switcharoo

Honestly, the switcheroo should be outright illegal. It's a complete betrayal of trust. It's theft of what was paid for to begin with.

Never put it past EA to do so.
