It's like if the devil and the antichrist split up. Yeah it's probably a good thing, but it's really hard to be happy about it. Even EA's way of selling it is "don't worry, we'll still charge you yearly for the same features including the money sucking ultimate team."

Nah, EA isn't even close to the level moral bankruptcy and corruption that FIFA represents.
IMO the entire leadership of FIFA belongs behind bars.

totally agree. Some perspective is needed here. EA is just a shit company with their gambling mechanics and more. FIFA is corrupt and straight up doesn't care about human rights - on Katar construction sites for example. They're playing in a different league.

I don't really follow anything about FIFA the org/leadership. Why do they belong behind bars? I have seen quite a few examples of them being super greedy but I am ignorant past that.
