This is not the first time I’ve written about a video game that appears to have been sent out to die, and I predict it will not be the last. The latest victim of the business is Dragon Age: The Veilguard, which, of course, was one of the subjects of Electronic Arts’ third-quarter earnings call on Tuesday with CEO Andrew Wilson.

The Veilguard failing to meet EA goals with only half of the players it wanted, EA CEO Andrew Wilson is reflecting on why that happened.

The Veilguard failed at least partially because it didn’t have live-service elements. The gaming landscape has changed quite radically over the last decade. Games like Destiny and Fortnite have encouraged developers to look toward making its games everlasting rather than an experience that lasts a finite amount of time.
