From my own point of view, I'd definitely go for the more realistic experience for sure.
Re the challenge level overall, I'd vote for adding the options to increase difficulty if it's wanted, to keep all players happy.

@Noya_Wesa I agree only because it appears to have left a segment of the community out in the cold. I don't think many people enjoy seeing -20+ rounds in competitive play.
But then I believe the serious players have gone back to 2K. I know one person who tried it for about 3 days and thought the game lacked realism and went back to 2K. Mind you 2K is not perfect either but the plays closer than this.
He still pings me occasionally to see how EA stacks up after each patch...
For the longevity of the game I believe you need to capture the dedicated golfer looking for the most realistic experience. The gamers have a short interest level, and will move on to the next shiny object.

@ELF014 Please don't misunderstand, I agree with your sentiments. I just think in the terms of those short term random players are still needed to give the return on investment for EA, or there likely won't be a game long term.
Keeping more people happy seems to be a safe bet for us to have a game that will be at least maintained for a long time, and hopefully have further development.
- 3 years ago@Noya_Wesa Vast vast majority of, people looking to play video golf aren’t looking for an Uber realistic experience. They want to play golf and have fun, not shoot a +37.
My suggestion is if SIM isn’t doing it, get some clubs and get out there.
2k is trash.- Noya_Wesa3 years agoSeasoned Veteran
@RodSirloin There's no reason why the game cannot cater to all levels though, which is the main point I was trying to convey.
