EA plans to go private in record $50,000,000,000 buyout Anonymous 09/26/2025 (Fri) 20:52:51 Id: 0fd344 No. 1792271
https://archive.ph/TqsTo This would shift their investors from the market to private equity, with the firms Silver Lake, PIF, and Affinity Partners.
>>1825260 Nigger EA is paying the vig! This isn't about consumers, that's the terms of a leveraged buyout.
>>1825485 Saudi Arabia says they're pro-ESG, they shape their economy based on ESG, they demonstrated they're pro-ESG in other video game companies, but yes, I'm sure that they'll make an exception for EA. EA will change. They'll start using AI tools, some people who have needed to get gone for the longest time will get gone, but if you expect them to fundamentally change their nature, you're gravely mistaken. The only thing they care about is Muslims being portrayed well. They were behind the Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 woke slop. That's what you're going to get from EA. It is funny how the progressive agenda that was all in our heads is now very real, and they're terrified that Saudi Arabia will get rid of it.
>>1825956 >They were behind the Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 woke slop Why would they enforce adding a nigger from Mali when they can't stand them and the character he's based on is an actual Arab? Sounds more like Larry The Enforcer.
>>1820116 Still would've been an ugly globohomo mess, but the skinsuits would at least be on sexier characters. The game takes place in a post great reset world and actively celebrates it by starting on the tricentennial of said great reset.
>private equity leveraged buyout for EA lol, lmao even

>>1832823 Name of the song in the video?
>>1832912 Thanks for sharing this, anon!
I question why PE firms are even legal. Literally all they do is buy up assets and either rentseek ("management fees") or flip them for a profit for their investors. They contribute virtually nothing to society yet since the 1980s have bought up massive swaths of everything, from local plumbing companies to real estate. I feel like the very concept of a PE firm would have been regulated out of existence decades ago.
>>1862267 shut up anon gdp go up
>>1820115 >wants to be like china >keeps pushing shit that destroys national unity Not I disagree with governments wanting more power. But it aint ever gonna be like china if all they do is push schizo laws
>>1862267 >They contribute virtually nothing to society Would you rather they stick to Microsoft and Disney's plans of action, where they buy everything up in sight and refuse to release it to the public? Not saying that's the "only" other option, but PE are the polar opposites of how monopolies operate. And they're allowed to exist because they keep the money flowing.
>>1862637 >wants to be like china >keeps pushing shit that destroys national unity Anon, do you NOT know your Chinese history? They want to repeat MaoMao's rise to power in creating a Communist state. And look at all the "unity" he brought about during the various Chinese civil wars that occurred during the 20's, 30's, and 40's. The tactic is referred to as "Unity, Criticism, Unity". You first create a desire for "unity", then you criticize and attack the existing institutions for "failing" to allow for said "unity", and then (After those institutions have been destroyed or subverted) you create a "unity" on a new level.
>>1862759 Mao for all his other retardation understood you had to be united against something. You missing an important step there was an outgroup >China vs the Japs >China vs Imperial west >China vs Corrupt Republic of China >China numba wan >We all struggling together They can try all they want, you have to have at least charisma and a cause worth dying for. How the fuck will I ever trust these fuckwits with my life and livelihood when everything they touch turns to absolute shit, when clearly some groups get to rape and steal and all the burden is put on the law abiding ones. We are not suffering together clearly you are protecting your own special groups. Mao at least attempted to maintain an illusion that he was a common man. >durr you all starving but im also just eating plain rice i'm just like you >durr i'mma send my son to front lines, I wont ask you to do something I myself won't do! Send me your children so we can save China! <Mr. General if my son dies imma killll you. I see their shit plans and their shit implentation. And fucking weaklings that can't do shit without crying. I am not impressed they fucking failed already.
>>1862833 >How the fuck will I ever trust these fuckwits with my life and livelihood when everything they touch turns to absolute shit, when clearly some groups get to rape and steal and all the burden is put on the law abiding ones Because it pushes you to the other group, who has the same exact ideology but under a different but more appealing label. You against Antifa, the LGBT, the Democrats, Israel, and the WEF? Then wouldn't you know it, there's a group for you called "The Christian Nationalists". And their aims are to create a society centered on common "Christian" ownership of the means of production culture, distribution, and exchange, where products are allocated based on need "Christian" morals. It envisions a society without private property sexual degenerates, social classes pagans, money usury, and the state Jews.
>>1862267 The same reason why a murderous nigger is favored over a intelligent white man: the nigger is impulsive and spends money without thinking, while the intelligent white man saves money. Your complaint should be directed at the economic system, which, as always, is the reason for all problems in the world. It prioritizes money flow instead of actually useful actions. A company buying everything makes the money flow even among bankrupt companies, so it is prioritized over companies that produce useful things that people buy once and never again (because they are too good and useful, so there is no need to buy more).
>>1864621 >Christian Nationalists Have you seen todays christian thats an impossibility.
>>1864621 >You against Antifa, the LGBT, the Democrats, Israel, and the WEF? Then wouldn't you know it, there's a group for you called "The Christian Nationalists". The hilarious thing is when I'm against all those, but then said Christian nationalists, or at least a significant portion of them would rather shoot me dead because of my beliefs/skin colour/country of origin, if they could afford to. >>1864718 >When Christianity dominates everything, it is a good thing. When others do it, it is wrong. Deal with it. I don't think there's anything to deal with since with people around the world going more athiest, Christianity has zero chance to "dominate everything". That ship has sailed.

>>1862267 Finance professor and hedge fund manager explaining why private equity firms are a shit
Is there any chance of getting a RA2 or Tibsun remasters? what about RA4 or generals 2? I can't remember all the other IP's that EA have. Are any of those likely to come back under this new ownership?
>>1882538 Likely not, but there's a chance. Then again I don't want modern companies to touch these new IPs. Make something new and good.
>>1882661 >I don't want modern companies to touch these new IPs. Do you mean old IP's?
>>1882668 Yeah, my bad
I’m actually kinda optimistic if this works out since it helped SNK fix themselves, perhaps the Saudis can also fix EA
>>1882674 It's more likely they'll hollow it out, that's what usually happens in leveraged buyouts.
>>1882677 I’m okay with that after seeing what Bioware became.
>>1882677 We might see a resurrection of older IP's with no tranny shit in them which I'm hopeful for. I feel like there is not much left to lose on EA now, what could go wrong? I personally like battlefield 6 and star wars battlefront 2 came out okay after they removed the shit. Apart from that they have just been raping their IP's and killing studios as per usual. I feel like EA is too big to fail, although they still could. But I can't imagine the saudis would do anything apart from make good games with no tranny shit. What's not to like? Unless I'm wildly wrong about the Saudi's. There was a leak from EA or whatever that said guns and sports are in and gay shit is out. Looking forward to see how EA changes.
>>1882732 >Unless I'm wildly wrong about the Saudi's. Unfortunately, you are. For some reason most people around the world assume SA and nearby rich gulf states are like the beacons of Islamic practice and whatever, but it's quite the opposite. UAE has what I'd basically Las Vegas 2.0 and a whore house epidemic. SA do a few similar things recently, one big example is having the WWE and they didn't touch or chamge anything with that and left it as it is. It wouldn't be surprising if the lghdtv shit stays in EA games at all. Take it from someone who actually knows the region, and not from ununformed echo chambers.
>>1882979 That just means they like fucking though.
>>1882998 It means they're a multinational, they don't give a shit as long as they get their money.
>>1882979 >ununformed echo chambers Uninformed? I guess there is a chance they see the lghdtv's (lol) as a problem preventing money and remove it and change nothing else. Still better chances of EA becoming good than previously.
>>1885076 >I guess there is a chance they see the lghdtv's (lol) as a problem preventing money and remove it and change nothing else. Still better chances of EA becoming good than previously. They could very well do so, yes. Pragmatic intervention, but not out of belief or ideology, which is what I meant in my initial message.
