@EA_Aljo I've read twitter posts and reddit posts there are more hate than likes for this year's game and just because I stop playing HUT because it's a terrible mode and it doesn't deserve time or money invested in it doesn't mean I'm not a hard-core player

Yes. That's what I'm saying. Social media and online forums are where you go to complain so there is a very large part of the community that we don't hear from. Again though, we act on the feedback provided by the communities we hear from the most. Which, again, are the ones that are most critical. Your comment about listening to the majority really isn't true when it's the minority that is giving us the most feedback. Which, we have been acting on.

@EA_AljoIf you were listening to the community, the game wouldn’t have become what it is now. Arcade style unrealistic hockey. Who asked for that? I read a lot of comments on this forum about people that would like to play a video game that looks more like a simulation. Interference is everywhere in this game, not only on goalie but when you try to hit a player and someone purposely got in between, that’s interference, when you get knock down in front of the net and you don’t have puck possession, that’s also interference. Live moments in HUT are the worst for interference. It wasn’t as bad in previous years. Show me one post, from previous years where someone ask to add more interference to the game.

Then I’m sorry, you’re playing in your own circle of friends/cowokers and not actually engaging in the community. Talk to ANYONE online about this and I promise you they’ll say it’s the worst nhl to date. In no way is social media is just “where you go to complain.” Go to any successful game’s forums, social media, what have you, and it won’t be filled with people begging to fix things that have been broken from day one, if not longer.

Aljo engages the community every day.

Incorrect. There's no clout in saying positive things about this game. In fact, saying anything positive gets you shunned and labelled as a 'shill'. It really is perplexing why people who clam the game is broken "year after year" are constantly buying the game, year after year. We played a World of CHel game against a team last night with player names all "this game is trash" etc etc. They all had 500+ goals and almost 1000 pts each. Who plays a game that much that they hate?

Social media is a cesspool of opinions and hot-takes. It's absolutely where people go to yell into the void. Anything that confirms their bias is 'liked', 're-tweeted', and anything that opposes that opinion (regardless of its truth) is blocked and ignored - fortifying the echochamber.

Yes it will. 

@KidShowtime1867You seem to be thinking highly of yourself. I've read many of your posts on this forum. Always telling people what's wrong or right...If the moderator tolerates you on this forum, that's obviously because you work for EA Sports. So, if your so proud of your product, why don't you come forward and tell us what's your implication to the development of NHL 24.

@HockeyChkThey manage every year to make the game worse ,like I've said before just because they made changes doesn't mean it's good and no one should be taking a bow or patting themselves on their back for this game it's the worst of the series, in my opinion

@Treatmentworke66- this game it's the worst of the series

I tend to agree with you. For sure, it's the less fun of the series.
