Turns out Origin isn’t so bad, after all.
I mean, can five million people be wrong?
Hang on, that’s a slippery slope argument that ends up at Justin Bieber and Nazi Germany – but the service is doing pretty well, anyway.
“Like any piece of software, and I worked at Microsoft for enough years to say this, you launch software and continue to polish it, upgrade it, get feedback and make it better,” EA sub-overlord Peter Moore told the Sydney Morning Herald.
“That’s where we are with Origin. We’re only four and a half months in and already over five million people are using it on a daily basis.”
Responding to a suggestion that users don’t quite get what Origin is about just yet, Moore added that, “I think in its broadest sense they think it is just EA’s answer to Steam, and it is much more than that. Like any great content provider, you want to provide yourself with a platform to talk directly with your customers.”
“The console first parties understand what we are doing. I think the fans, the people that have to use it in the early going, are the ones that get it last in regards to what we are trying to do.”
