Full 'feel good' story here

“We want to build and promote a world that is diverse and inclusive.”

Starting with NBA Live 18, which launches on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One in September, official WNBA rosters will be represented in the game. 

Remember when their catch phrase was EA Sports "It's in the game!"

Why are they putting stuff in their game that ISN'T in the game?

Seriously, release WNBA as a stand alone game, I'm sure all the girls (and boys) who want it will buy it, and it will be as successful as your customers want it to be.

Now onto soccer:

...FIFA 16... for the first time ever, the studio revealed its flagship game would feature women soccer players. It was a great move toward diversifying the game's plot

The only 'sport' I've heard of that had a plot was Professional Wrestling... And I don't remember any EA release of WWF adding 'the plot' to 'the game'...

Again, why add something just for the sake of adding it. There are real professional female soccer players, put them in BECAUSE THEY EXIST, not for 'plots' and 'agendas'.

Gawd EA sucks.
