Very good NHL 23

I watched many reviews that said very little has changed since 22, but I find 23 to be profoundly better in every way. I couldn't believe it, the difference from what the reviews on YT proclaimed and what I am experiencing on the Free Trial is completely opposite. 23 is very good hockey, I wouldn't have bought without the free trial. Moving in good direction, huge movement. Physical contact specifically shoves needs some more power, but that is my two cents. Online versus experience. Very good progress.

Thank you for your time.

    Yes the game plays pretty good and is fun to play but with a worthy presentation of a PS5 Sport game like Madden and Fifa this should have been a great game.

  • Im not suprised.

    I have read some reviews and watched some gameplay clips to get an idea of how the game plays-out.

    I think the reviews are the once that never will change, especially the negative-ism, but if you know what to search for, you may find some positive feedback in the reviews.

    For example, I haven’t heard a single word about puck ragging, that's a good sign.

    People complaint about cross creases being too difficult to execute, dear lord that's a good sign, you hear me EA!

    No one are talking about poke spamming, that's the best news.

    Poke checks should be a difficult thing, that's what creates a skill gap, aand in turn to that, it gives the team with the puck some time and space to be creative on... hold on to that EA. No one likes spamming, not even if it makes poke checks less of an art..

    And just to read thoose positive feedbacks like the one the TS created is enough for me to understand that the game has taken, if not huge steps in right direction, so at least, 'a move to the right direction.'

    And for me, I will have to wait for my first experience with the NHL 23.

    Im still on some sort of 'rehab' or what I would call it.

    And I will not be a part of discussions on this board, trying to defend the game or whatsoever. I need to step back from all that, takes away too much energy, energy I need for other stuff in life.

    But once i've played the game, im definitely are going to leave my own thoughts about the game, of what I like and disslike, then im gonna leave it like that for anyone to accept or not accept. It's up to the reader.

    Anyway, hope the majority of you enjoy the game and im sure the small crew of the EA hockey team are keeping up the pace.

    Looking forward to try out your product in a not too far away future.

    Play safe ladies and gentlemens, and all you trolls! 🤠🤘
  • @RaisinFlakes I'm enjoying it as well, but also enjoyed 22 before the patches came out. Hoping the gameplay stays consistent to how it is now. Please keep the tips in, a lot more deflection goals which is really nice to see.
