At Some Point, I have to blame myself
-
For the first time since starting to play DD in 2016, I could care less if I complete the LS collection or not. Only Randy would interest me. I'm not buying LS cards. Stub making by just playing is way down. Don't have the time or energy to Flip. I still love playing baseball games but this year its just different. Hope to see you guys in a League or play Friendlies like last year.

So far I have over 200k in stubs missing, my mini season record shows 7-8 when it actually should show 14-1, I just played a Central Conquest game only to have it not register and it shows I have to beat that stronghold again.....Add in the gameplay issues that I won't go into as RAES has summarized nicely, and it is a mess....But I keep playing.
The Show is the only video game I tend to play due to my love of baseball.(I have a PS5 and have bought other games but they just sit there).
SDS has not handled my ticket (they said they fixed it, which was not done and no response to my numerous responses requesting they look at it again), no word on the other issues...
Honestly it is sad...Sad that this outlet for me has been made hollow, and sad that I keep giving them the benefit of the doubt.....But shame on me for continually playing
We all need to walk away. Maybe Elon will buy the show and make it Great!
Microsoft will probably buy up SDS, they are snatching up w.e gaming studios they can right now.

That would be a stretch, since it’s Sony’s and they’ve made big acquisitions themselves

You think that they will snatch up a studio named Sony San Diego Studio?

Believe its San Diego Studios, yes its owned by Sony, but money always talks.

Besides all the stuff mentioned. I’m really excited about the idea of turning on the show and playing it. That’s until I turn on the show and start to play. I could list various reasons but they’ve been mentioned. In years past maybe I was naive. Maybe I got side tracked by the next new card. Maybe I felt a sense of accomplishment with completing collections.
I can’t pinpoint exactly what it is about this year but my joy is fading and I’m not motivated.

The opening program this year is just not doing it for me, not sure why they decided to change the way they drop programs but this one is a dud IMO

This is disappointing to hear that you've lost so much enjoyment from playing, and for the reasons why. It's extremely frustrating and disappointing to submit tickets to SDS, and they do nothing about them. I've had a similar experience. I can only imagine they are getting flooded with tickets and can't respond to them all. But still...make a game that doesn't have so many bugs, and you won't get complaints.
I think for me, the biggest ongoing disappointment has been losing the licenses to players like Ty Cobb, Rogers Hornsby, Ted Williams, some of the older classic all-time greats. In their place we're getting guys like Brian Roberts, Kevin Youkilis and Chase Utley. Yes, I know we have gotten Pedro and Randy and Clemente, and those aren't to be ignored. But I think on a macro level, the quality of legends has really gone down as a whole. I'm sorry, I just don't care about Grady Sizemore or Brian Wilson. Give me back Williams, Cobb, Hornsby. I want DiMaggio, Satchel Paige, Carlton Fisk, Yaz, not Vinny Castilla.
Never in my life did I think to myself "Man, I really wish Harold Baines was in this game," but...here we are.

Man, we agree 100%. I posted before the game launch that other than Randy, I would prefer to have Cobb, Hornsby, Williams, etc. back as opposed to the other guys they are replacing them with each year......I have to think they purposely let some of those licenses expire so they can promote them (as big names) a few years later as "new to the game". It gets hard to land super big names each year, especially if they won't consider the steroid era/cancel era type guys...

I would be really curious to understand how the licensing issue works with SDS and former players. I'd be surprised if they "let players go" just to bring them back in a few years to sell the game. Baseball is a 100-plus year-old sport with more great legends than you can possibly fit into the game, and legends that will drive sales. You can add at least 2 marquee names every year, without losing any of the major ones, and almost never run out ESPECIALLY now that the Negro Leagues are considered a major league. They literally have a whole new league of legends to procure.

I'm curious as well. I'm sure some players' name/likeness is expensive, and even though is a game, it's still a business with trade-offs. I also wonder if some players or their estates want their player to be more relevant in the game so they would be the best card, no debate, like Ted/JoeD folks saying give him more power or no agreement (cause we know you're gonna give Jeter diamond defense when you put him in the game so we know you can do it).

Same for me.
My experience this year has been sub-par, but nothing like this. Sorry man... you certainly don't deserve it.
