As feared the game has gotten too easy too soon.

As the title suggested... the game has lost its challenge far too quickly. There are a few things in the game that make it too forgiving and thus too easy. First the flop and pick shots are get out...

@jambomakaveli Both the flop and pick generate too much spin under less than ideal circumstances. And a bigger issue is the ball physics, they are a little too severe with mid/long irons being received by a green. And yet they are way too slow on the fastest settings, the ball will stick on a red slope while rolling downhill and they do not roll out enough. The ball has a tendency to stop rather suddenly.

2K23 seem to have gotten the ball physics right with their putting. I can appreciate the shotlink and trackman data collected by EA, but I think the ball physics are drastically wrong.

@ELF014 I’m sure everyone feels different etc….

A big question is…. If you could only keep one and had to get rid of one, and that’s it going forward…..

Yeh I’d miss ea, but I couldn’t be without 2k.

This is purely based on the fact it can be challenging.

I’m on pro swing, and I can’t imagine moving up another 2 levels!

And I can only imagine moving to the top level would result in some really bad shots/duffs at times.

Both games have stuff the other game could like, and learn from.

Maybe going forward, with this competition now, they’ll both really knuckle down and produce 2 great games in the coming years.

Or if ea is a live service game, then some quality updates/additions.

    @jambomakaveliI will only play/concentrate on one game at a time currently that would be EA PGA Tour.

    But it appears SPYGLASS was released today on 2K23... could be my favorite course. So it seems I will be playing 2K23 tonight.

    I still have high hopes for EA that they will improve the gameplay to the point it is challenging and emulates a golf simulation rather than a game.
