@jimmarshall I just saw your post about MUT vs franchise.
EA makes us feel like we are a dying breed for wanting to play franchise.
It is by far the least creative game mode of any game that I play/have played in the last..I don't know how many years.
It is so lifeless.
I saw madden's rating on twitch recently. HAHA.
Some of us just love the game of football, and want to immerse ourselves in an experience with/without our friends. I don't have a problem with the gameplay this year. It was actually quite nice when I played the ea trial on ps5. Rb's actually dodge lineman, and it seems more natural. But everything else is lifeless. Next gen stats is not implemented correctly. The whole GameDay thing is a step in the right direction..so that's on the field..what about off the field? They have a coaching skill tree that is so easy and basic. There is no real consequence to any decision..ever. face of the franchise is a joke. I mean it is the poorest excuse....
Anyway. And that's all next gen too. Imagine not even having access to half of the generic 1080p b/s lifeless cutscenes..or the next gen stats that read 22.0mph no matter who the player is.
MUT makes up over 50% of EA's entire revenue(not ea sports...EA as a whole!)
People are spending tons of money on these modes, and ruining it for the rest of us. Just like people spending $3,000 on gpus.
At least the gpu manufacturers have some competition(let's go Intel. Don't let big green get complaicent)
Sorry for the rant. I really would enjoy a good football game. Gone are the days where we have blitz the league: 2 level immersion.
Nba2k does a decent job only because they found a way to monetize it. Mlb the show is also in dire need of..something different.
Idk man..my fingers just wouldn't stop typing just now. Ea gets me like that
