I thought I was done with the critically maligned game. Its single player story is bad and its multiplayer a thinly veiled excuse to sell loot boxes. The backlash against those randomized boxes of cards and gear was so strong that it dropped EA’s stock price and pushed some American legislators to look at regulating the practice. > Despite all this, I've played it for more than 40 hours so far, and I don't think I'm going to stop anytime soon. It gets worse: I also purchased the Elite Trooper Deluxe upgrade. I hate writing this, but it was worth the money. The $20 upgrade contains an assortment of character upgrades and weapons that make Battlefront II much better.
