I can definitely understand where you're coming from. NHL 23 had that great fast-paced, physical feel that made it so fun, especially in modes like EASHL. The big hits and the smooth controls with the skill stick really added to the excitement. NHL 24 seems to have dialed it back a bit, and it's frustrating when the pace and intensity you loved aren’t there anymore. It’s kind of like how Partner Hours Starbucks used to be perfectly scheduled to match the rush—things ran smoothly and quickly, making the experience more enjoyable. Hopefully, the next updates or patches bring some of that old energy back!
