This generation's Battlefront games have been controversial, to say the least. Even if I personally love both of the new ones, a ton of people still prefer the original versions from the 6th gen.
However, back at launch Battlefront 2 was a very different game in a very different context. The whole internet was incredibly angry with EA for how microtransactions were implemented (not without reason, the game was very P2W), the beta didn't give players the best impression, and in general the game simply wasn't living up to the hype. Thankfully, DICE stuck with it and kept adding gamemodes, maps, heroes and more into the game (content that apparently isn't stopping anytime soon, thankfully) and while my experience with the game is fairly limited (got it a few weeks ago), it's definitely better than its 2005 counterpart.
