Did I somehow miss it or does the article not even mention what the mod is?

It's EA. That's how it keeps getting worse.

Amazing how you can just shit on EA and get upvoted even though they are nothing to do with it.

Almost like they earned a reputation or something. Almost like it’s expected.

Kinda like doing something 10 times in a row so on the 11th time an assumption is made….

I suppose someone could think that “amazing.”

I mean, it is pretty amazing. It's funny if they're ironic upvotes and it's wild if they're upvotes of agreement because it is complete misinformation.

Yeah EA has lots of bad rep and yeah they made a couple of games in the series. But the game the article is about, as well as the original game it is remaking were nothing to do with EA.

Embracer, actually, and while I do suspect that the blame for a lot of these problems lies with them (especially the lack of servers, which was almost certainly down to Embracer cheaping out), it's hard to blame this particular failure on anyone but Aspyr. While Embracer almost certainly created the conditions by not giving them enough time and resources to deliver good work, it's still on Aspyr that they used someone's work without permission. There's no real justification for that, even if you're in a bind.
