    Hello Everyone, ill try and make this quick! Haha... last year i made a topic about the improvements i was expecting to see from "MLB The Show 21" you guys can find that one in my profile.... i have seen the little snippets of gameplay you guys have put out and i couldn't have been more dissapointed!😔.. i was excited not only for a New MLB game (specially since i didn't purchase 'The Show 20' because the changes weren't worth the 60$) "Sorry San Diego🤷🏾‍♂️ Just being honest".. but i was also excited because you guys have so much more space for creativity because of the new consoles! So you can only guess what my feelings were when i see the gameplay and it looks exactly like "MLB The Show 18"..yes! 18!!! Because 18 looks just like 19 and 19 looks just like 20 and so on unfortunately... to be honest and to give you guys the benefit of the doubt, and for my sake i hope thats not the final product and if it is! At least you guys fixed enough in the mechanics to make me completely forget about the graphics, maybe you guys fixed the announcements and added more realism and less repetition.. or maybe when i hit a homerun this time i can actually see and feel the strenght of the player as he pounds that ball into oblivion? Or maybe just maybe! You guys brought back a Franchise mode worth playing for once in a decade??? Maybe!!! Or Maybe its just the same old game with a different title!.... like i said in my last post "its time for a change" and if i see none with this game then i guess ill see you guys next year and hopefully you pick up the slack!! Because at this point i think that even "2k Sports" would compete with you guys if they decide to come back, considering what they've done for their NBA games in the same amount of time you have failed to bring any innovative changes to your MLB games.....

    Maybe im being too Harsh or maybe im wrong! But god knows i would love to be proven wrong!! You guys have 2 months to make this game what we expect it to be if its not there already! I've been a fan since 2006 and saw how you guys drove every othwr mlb game competition off the map but now it seems that due to the lack of competition, you guys have failed to give us the changes we so much crave in our beloved MLB the show. Its sad to be compared to the likes of Madden!! And i really do hope im proven wrong this time... i wish everyone at San Diego studios good health in this time of pandemic and good fortune in your endeavors!! With that being said, Give Us The Show!!!!!!!!!

    What do you guys think??? What changes would you like to see on the Show??? And what do yoy like or dislike about the game??? Also let me know in all honesty what you guys think about what i wrote! It means the world to build a stronger Community so that we can all get the gaming experience we want and deserve, until next time!!!!! 9 3 G A N G !!!!!!

    Since you asked for honesty about what you wrote, you said about 3 sentences worth of stuff in 10x as many words needed.

    No other studio can come close to gameplay. Please see RBI baseball.

    Please don't compare this game to the polished [censored] that is the Madden Franchise.

    I wish you luck with your passion that is MLB. I don't see much that will sway you as any expectations for a major redevelopment of the existing engine is unfair this year..Given the pandemic, getting XBox running alone was a major accomplishment.

    Your post is respectful, but just way too long of a read.

    Ifthere’s one demographic that SDS are highly unlikely to cater to, it’s “people who could have bought the game this year but didn’t.”

    And as a general writing tip for having your words taken seriously, one exclamation point or question mark is always enough to get the job done.

    If you think Madden is better than this game than I have a really hard time believing that you have played this game since 2006.

    You have seen seconds of gameplay footage of the PS4 version running on a PS5 and you're already creating hyperbolic posts about how they failed. They have not shown PS5 gameplay yet. Even if they did, this has likely been the most challenging year of development the studio has ever experienced due to COVID and getting the game running well on 7 different platforms (Xbox One, Xbox One X, Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X, PS4, PS4 Pro, and PS5). What exactly were you expecting?

    TLDR: I miss the downvote button.

    You just wrote more stuff then anything they have shown of mlb ts 21 yet. They don't start releasing videos of gameplay until next Month. And they haven't shown anything with the next gen ps5 stuff yet. Maybe you should wait for the game to at least get to an Alpha stage before you judge it. Preferably wait until it is actually finished.

    In all fairness you are completely right, i should probably wait for more info before judging but to answer your question "What were you expecting?" Well i am expecting a more polished experience, i understand that now they're working on different platforms but that doesnt mean im trying the play MLB the Show 2020 with a new tittle all over again just because 'this has been a challenging year' again! I will wait for more content and will not judge, but a New game is exactly what that means "NEW" not the same recycled junk with a few tweaks. thanks for your feedback much appreciated and stay safe out there💯
