Developer DICE talks about how rivalry and competition are good for the game industry.
DICE’s Patrick Bach says that competition for Battlefield 4 like Call of Duty: Ghosts is good for the industry.
“I think [competition is] beneficial for everyone. Consumers, first, of course, they get more choice. For us, we need to think about what is Battlefield really about so we don’t dilute the franchise in any way. We need to focus down on what makes Battlefield awesome, and make it even more awesome.”
“And I think Battlefield 4 hopefully is a good testament that we’re doing that. I can’t really see any downside to having multiple games being great. I’m happy for the consumer, first, and I think we will step up our game to fight the competition even harder. We think we have the best game; we need to prove it.”
