The reason for my change of opinion is that I was initially focused mostly on dribbling and felt disappointed. I tried high-rated players, and the dribbling wasn’t as promised. Yes, it’s better than FC25, but still not fully convincing to me.
I was very frustrated, especially since I shared my opinion within the first two or three days of the game’s release. Most of my matches were with average or low-rated players, and only two or three games were with high-rated players. Even then, dribbling felt weaker compared to FIFA 22, where it was legendary.
That was my first impression, and I know it was too early to judge, but I lost my patience. I admitted that and later apologized for my harsh comment.
After giving the game more time, I started to see the developers’ effort, the details, and the fun in the gameplay. Now, I’m really enjoying the game—it’s close to the old FIFA versions we loved. After three years without fast and smooth gameplay, this new-gen version feels responsive, smooth, and amazing.
So yes, I can confidently say it’s far better than FC25, and I’m really enjoying it.
I have to agree with Manso0rr. This game feels so much better. Not a big shock that is better than FC25, cause that one was really below average, but for me this is the best one in years. Button response is finally how it should be, and players are doing what they supposed to. Defenders are running back with attackers, attackers make runs forward, goal keepers actually catch something, ... It's not entirely perfect yet, but I feel we're back on track from where we left around 8 years ago or smthg
