I have been thinking about how in real life, game developers (such as EA) have multiple companies that produce certain genres of games (such as EA Sports publishing all of EA’s sport games). This would be AWESOME in Game Dev Tycoon to be able to create a company to publish certain styles of games. This leads me to my next idea, which is to be able to buy out smaller companies (like EA buying out Maxis and getting all their assets). These bought out companies could all have special attributes, like being able to continue making games in a series of successful games that that company has owned (like if a company bought Nintendo, they could develop Mario games). My last idea is that once your company gets large enough, you can publish games that other companies develop. @PatrickKlug
Maybe for a sequel, but it’s too much of a game change to have it in the current version in my opinion.
And you would really want to be the kind of developer EA is?
It could be an alternate style of play 
Well looking at Greenheart’s motto:
develop games that are fun to play instead of mind numbing money grabbers. Less social, less ville, more game is our current motto.
I doubt they will add something to the game that makes you a money grabber 
This isn’t necessarily about making a game “social” it’s about having a bigger goal to accomplish and to just put a little twist on gameplay.
maybe i should had left the “social” out of the quote.
Actually it’s the Money grabbing and More game that relates to EA in my opinion.
If you look at the latest Simcity, its less game then Simcity 4. For example
The latest Simcity was a bit of a flop, but I still enjoyed playing it.
Even if the money grabbing road is a somewhat bad business practice, it still would be fun to play around with… This doesn’t mean you have to though, you could still be an independent developer if you wanted too
Well if it would be in the game, then there should be a punishment for going the EA way 
More people will pirate your games, because there getting sick of all the DRM and stuff, while game quality is horrible.
That is completely true. Who hasn’t had a pirated copy of at least ONE EA game… Not me
Normally i wouldn’t care about company’s like EA, but they have been ruining franchises i really liked.
C&C, Simcity ( allthough i loved to play Simcity 4, but mainly because the community provided much needed fixes for the game )
I love these ideas and by far are one of the most popular ideas.
@JayCheetah Of course that kind of business tactics is not something you’d wish for in reality, but isn’t one fun aspect of games that you can decide to be the villain just for fun without doing any harm in reality?
In my opinion, morals are for the real world!
You under estimate the power of video games.
And they are perfect to teach, even moral.
Thank you !
It’s my personal opinion that i don’t like the latest simcity.
For money grabbing/suit way you should get less fans but more money or something like that. Also reviews should be affected due to personal hatred or DRM.
Great ideas! I want this in game!
You have the right to say you liked the latest SimCity.
But seriously, objectively, it’s the worst of the series.
All the things that were missing are being added by 10$ DLCs, DRMs, small maps, and thus small towns, etc…
Everything EA touched went wrong. C&C, SimCity, Dragon Age, Dead Space, etc…
