At least that was the assumption I got, because if you consider Dragon Age, Dead Space or Mass Effect to now be bad, but before had been good, I don't see how you could pin that on EA when they published all games in their respective franchises, which they did not do for Burnout, Need For Speed, SimCity, or Command And Conquer.
I am not too familiar with the other series, but my biggest issues with the Mass Effect series are things that are obviously EA's fault: Origin exclusivity, and pricey DLCs that never get bundled or go own sale. Being EA all along doesn't preclude a series from having been ruined by EA. They have gained "EA traits".
