In EA's defence, I think that moment was a turning point for them. That's not to say their games since then have been perfect - they certainly haven't, and most of them don't appeal to me anyway - but I think most of the flaws with their games since then have been developer-related issues rather than anything to do with publisher meddling.
They genuinely have gotten a tad better. Not a lot better, but outside of their sports games they made some significant improvements to their practices.
The Jedi series almost single-handedly brought back EA singleplayer games. Since Fallen Order, we've gotten Mass Effect Legendary Edition (and ME4 announcement) and an excellent Dead Space remake.
