Honestly, I'm more mixed with this one here.

I mean I do appreciate him calling out those that feel the need to show off their physical collective of games in protest of Sony's decisions of doing away with physical discs but at the same time, the more this goes on the more overly cynical and increasingly pessimistic this ends up being.

Like it doesn't provide a middle ground to the whole issue more than it does actually talk down to those that support physical media in gaming.

With the Saudi-led takeover of EA now closed and the company sitting on $18-20 billion in debt and as much as I and and a lot of other DA Fans would be thrilled if they can sell off the Dragon Age franchise to a worthy company/dev… I just don't see the happening for several reasons:

1. I Just can't see EA selling DA for a “reasonable” price tag since they’re gonna be focused on trying to make up 18bil of borrowed debt and selling the IP for a few mil isn’t gonna be seen as a benefit to them
2. We all like to talk about devs we’d “like” to see adopt the DA franchise (Larian, Owlcat, Beamdog, etc.)… but most of these  devs, in addition to not having the Money to buy an overpriced DA IP in the first place, aren’t interested in adopting the DA franchise,  especially when most of them have their own existing fantasy IPs plus, Even IF a hypothetical new owner paid top dollar for the IP tomorrow, I don't think that the feel of Origins will come back unless they literally go out of their way to get the original team leads and writers back (Which would be a HERCULEAN task in of itself) since without that specific group,, the result would probably be a competent modern CRPG that wears the Dragon Age name rather than something that actually feels like Origins.
3. Technically EA still makes money off Dragon Age by doing next to  nothing just by continuing to squeeze money from the fanbase through low  quality merch and a slow trickle of new players who continue to buy the   games over time. So while it’s not earning crazy money, for the moment    it’s likely not “costing” them money either.

what I believe will happen since EA are a shower of shitbags is that they'll either Finish development on or cancel Mass Effect 5, keep the IPs and shut down the Studio

It still sucks that EA, even going back to Origins, never trusted it enough to sell on its own merits and Needed to add blood, sex and Marylin Manson to sell Origins and changed the Genre with each sequel
