Pretty disappointing, as others have mentioned. First year in a while I won’t be buying the game at launch. Maybe I’ll pick up a cheaper Black Friday sale, or maybe not at all. I’ve been a defender of the past few years’ iterations, but lost interest in 25 months ago, and can’t continue to defend the same rehashed glitchy/buggy mess year after year. It’s a shame, as the boys and I had some fun times in recent years playing EASHL club games and whatnot, but a terribly executed game caused us all to lose interest in the franchise, and it seems like 26 will be more of the same.
