Wasteland 2 NOT an Origin Exclusive

Enough people took Brian Fargo's positive comments about Origin's support for crowd-funded games as an indication that Wasteland 2 might be an Origin exclusive that the inXile Entertainment CEO took to Twitter to correct that mistaken impression. He says: "It is absolutely NOT going to be exclusive on Origin. They are just one of many digital stores we will support." Thanks nin.

Well, again, that's just blind hatred rather than rationality. The inability to recognize something good just because you dislike the individual (or corporation in this case) that's doing it is just sloppy thinking.
I couldn't disagree more. EA has a long history of abusive business practices and to support it as a company - through the purchase of games - would be to condone such activity. Valve really innovated with Steam and offered the market something that it didn't already have. It also supported indie developers and has had lot of sales specifically dedicated to them, as well as offering attractive rates for projects like those on KS. EA merely copied the main features with Origin and then withdrew all its games from Steam simply. Yet it shouldn't be forgotten that for a long time EA wouldn't even let you redownload titles that you'd bought more than a year ago. EA didn't produce Origin out of kindness to gamers - it did so because it was losing influence.

As I said, I'm not oppose to KS games being made available on multiple services including Origin. However, you simply won't see them using Origin as the exclusive distributor because it has such a poor reputation with gamers. Afterall, it takes a lot to be voted the worst company in America. It's not "blind hatred" to oppose businesses that behave in an abusive way.
