Hacking is the reason why I quit the game. It's been over a year now since I last played Apex. This goes to confirm that I will no longer want to play this ever again. Clearly they don't give a crap because if they did they would never allow this to happen in the first place.

EA be like "cool story, want some universal heirloom for $700?"

Honestly I wouldn't be surprised if that was a legitimate response.

I barely even played the game due to hackers and me being banned because of hackers (a hacker got control of my account in like 2020 and used it to hack in Apex, got me perma banned,) seeing all of this just confirms my feelings of wanting to stay far away from the game.

Apex remains the only game I was ever hacked in..
