That's something that should be expected unfortunately.
About 3 years ago EA sports were looking for a new creative director for their NHL game.
So long story short, they gave this job to Mr. William Ho, a guy behind the latest NFS games that time (yes, those really bad ones, with embarrassing characters, cringy language etc., that nobody liked).
So ya, now he's a head of this franchise. Liked it or not. With Rammer, of course.
