Hello
You remember pga tour? It's a game you made. And it is greatly being neglected by you. This game is far from good. And where are the updates? Do you think you can quit updating the game. And ten just...
Golf is not the most played game or sport in the world.
He forgot to say by rich people and their children, because it's certainly not a sport for poor people. Those are playing sports where all is needed is a ball.
And those rich people playing golf are certainly not buying golf games. The CEO at 2K was all excited after 2M copies sold for 2K21, and many of those copies were given for free, just like mine as Playstation game of the month.
Yeah, I mean $500 for a decent golf bag and I don't have anything special in there. It's now up to $90 a round before 3pm for my course, $75 after. Membership for a couple is closing to $5000 and counting... Nice thing is that it's getting easier and easier to get a tee off anytime we want again. On weekday, we can even just show up at the club and get on the course almost right away. Golf is definitely not mainstream these days, more like for people making good money.
For HB now 2K, all their games since TGC 2019 have been given away for free as Playstation game of the month at some point, that's how I got all of them and barely played any of them. As other have mentioned in the past, they all have the same feel to me as the original Golf Club and it's boring in no time. Still, I'm sure they all count as a new sale when somebody download them.
Anyway, it's all 2K from now on, at least until there's a new CEO at EA with another vision than to stick only with games played by millions of customers.
Dad was in the military, so we used to have a family membership with the course in Ottawa. As a family with my sis and me, it used to be $2500. Now it's up to almost $6000 and as ex member, it's an extra $1000. Green fees are still good though at under $50 a round over there. Still, without those membership and playing most days growing up, there's no way my sis and I would be shooting in the 70s like we're doing now. Improving the way we did is why we ended up loving golf so much.

Absolutely agree. During 2013, TW14 was ahead of its time. I am hoping that new CEO at EA would have a vision to replace the frostbite engine and create a new EA Golf game that could surpass TW14 in graphics, gameplay, options/settings and character creation.
