I don't think current Respawn could pull it off, Titanfall 2 was lightning in a bottle with them begging EA to not have any DLC and Apex plays like shit compared to it with a predatory battle pass.

A man can dream though. You're right about the current state of things. Wouldn't want it if it was Anthony like apex

Sadly, yeah. A lot of team moved to Gravity Well to start something new.

Been playing apex since launch. I've bought a total of 3 battle passes with actual money, it's super easy to just continue buying the battle pass off of the previous pass rewards. I have no love for the battle pass market but the apex one isn't one I'd call predatory. Game is free, battle pass is purely cosmetics you aren't forced into in any way. Aside from persistent audio issues apex plays really well for me.

Andrew Wilson and my personal definition of 'very exciting' likely differ greatly, so I'm not going to pay attention to anything until we see the products. I suspect he is very excited to make a lot of money on a bunch of new Star Wars games.

A good single player game would be the best I could hope for, second best a remaster of a good single player game like deadspace 2.

If Jedi Survivor is any indication, I think I will pass. Great game, but terrible performance.

Respawn good, EA bad
