Electronic Arts have formally launched their new store client doodad after a long open beta, replacing the much-maligned Origin with something they refer to as “the EA app” (its actual name is only “EA”). They say it’s faster and better. I think maybe it is? But it doesn’t really matter, as long as it’s not a disaster, because it’s not like you’re using it unless you have to anyway. Just like Origin before it, the new EA app is an inconvenience you must accept to play the EA games which require it, and beyond that it is useless. It does an okay job of that.
