Nhl 24 the game for everyone and anyone.
This used to be a game that took skill to be good at. Many of us have spent decades trying to master the skills to get where we are now. It's more than obvious that EA have given up on us loyal fan...

Offensive player exposes the puck and it should be a trivial play to poke the puck away. The puck is both accurate and strong enough to knock his stick away, but somehow completely misses the puck. Couldn't pull that off on-ice if I tried but it's a regular occurrence in this game.
Two for interceptions. First one I've got inside position with my stick on the ice, just somehow miss the puck entirely while the offensive player just inches past my stick picks it up clean and gets a shot off.
Second it a bit more forgivable, but still frustrating. Again, inside position but instead of breaking up the pass while it's in front of me, the game decides I'll try to pick it off on the far side of my body which opens up the opportunity for the offensive player to get the puck and the goal.
Finally, someone pulls through. Of course, these are from HUT. As I've said time and time again; realism down to the pixel should not be expected in HUT. No attribute parity, top players are all similarly skilled.. RNG will be more consequential than it should be.
Brother, you can't beg for videos every time someone criticizes the game and then say, "No, not those videos!" C'mon, man.
Idk man. You really "dissected" that dude's videos by saying they were HUT clips and therefore didn't make sense and then when he responded with, "No actually the clips are from club," you just said, "fair enough." I don't think that's a good faith discussion, honestly.

This is why I've taken an "anti video" stance on this site. Videos are always requested to discuss "x" but when videos are uploaded, the "x" that the OP wanted to discuss is rarely discussed and the video starts being nitpicked for "y", "z", and everything else that can be seen.
The community needs to be comfortable with discussion HIGH LEVEL concepts without a video. If a video is requested, the OP point NEEDS to be discussed. Not the missed the poke, not the clipping, not the less than optimal decision making, not the game mode and why you can't expect "x" because of "insert game mode here" explanation, but the actual main point of why the video was uploaded.
When these videos are nitpicked to death and essentially dismissed due to "skill issue bro" it forfeits all opportunity to gain anything constructive from the topic at hand. If we all can't talk about the theory of how this game should look and feel without video, then what are we all doing here? If we can't agree on the fundamental direction of the series in theory, how can we properly provide feedback to the development team?
Thank you for the addition. Let's keep this positive approach rolling and get the devs some actionable, constructive feedback!
