Anthem: Jim Sterling Beautifully Skewers Bioware

by on Apr 09, 2019

He's not always right, but on this subject, he's knocked it out of the park.

If you've read the brilliant Kotaku article by Jason Schreier on what went wrong with Anthem, it was only a matter of time until someone commented on the reality of what we read. Despite how good Kotaku's article was, it simply reported the facts of Anthem's development, and didn't really weigh in on Bioware's response (only slightly) or their terrible practices. While I appreciate Jason remaining neutral, the shocking revelations deserved far greater discussion; cue Jim Sterling.

Love him or loathe him, Jim Sterling does wonders for consumers and - as far as I can see - will fight tooth and nail for them against AAA publishers. His latest video where he discusses Jason's article and Bioware's response, is probably one of his best. Without diving in any further, grab a cup of tea and enjoy 20 minutes of one of the finest studio takedowns I've ever seen.
