Collecting, i try to collect all cards. I love trying out new players/cards as well. Just got Pujols, Castellanos, and Betts this weekend.
You'll love all 3

I love the collections also. Once LS is completed I does seem like it gets boring. Even chasing Brett, I was just like "I'll wait for cheaper Takashi and Awards cards to drop". I think it would be great to extend LS collections. Make tokens to achieve to add more players to each team. The. Trade in the tokens for players. I hate looking at my LS collections which are all done but they either have wholes in them or a bunch of guys I can't collect because the collection is completed.

I was very into the game playing mini seasons A LOT cause I was chasing after Randy Johnson but now that I completed it I find myself not playing as much cause I’m not playing for anything really lol. I have all the cards I want except for Gregg whom I don’t think it’s worth grinding for all the stubs. But I have LS completed with 300k stubs and even 56 unopened packs granted most of them are show packs but still.
What do you guys play for after completing what you were going after? How do you make the game seem refreshing is what I’m asking lol.
I play b/c i love baseball. I don't get caught up on the collecting side of things. I find if i just play with who i have and who i want it's enough.
I also do things different than most. I will decide what team i am gonna play and i will setup my team with same overalls as the team i am challenging. Instead of God Squad all the time vs CPU.

Actually play real people instead of playing against CPU all day

Hate it when I have “wholes” too, more of a halves guy myself.

I don't. Same situation as you except I have Brett as well. Have barely played at all the past 2 weeks. I've been playing lawn mowing simulator lol.
Game sucks this year. Everything boring, gain pxp, do moments, play vs cpu because online is garbage... all that for what? Show packs?
haha year right. -
It's a baseball fix for me. Can't play it any more in real life as I've aged out and my rotator cuff can't take any more.
I play The Show, Super Mega Baseball 1 & 2 still, and occasionally fire up Baseball Stars on the NES emulator to, again, get my baseball fix.
I play less of this game, though, than I ever have especially since the implementation of Moments. I just don't like them and every where you turn, you pretty much need to do them / complete them to progress. I don't play Ranked but play either Mini Seasons or Events when I do play as my time is limited due to work.

I am collection obsessed, but refuse to spend any money. I have collected different things through my life and some worthless (DVDs, BluRays a few years) and some that have made me money (Retro video games and movie collectibles). The game deals with my collection hobby without costing me any money. I found in last years game as soon as I collected every card that my interest went away. I suspect the same in this game when it happens.
-
Cause I love baseball
Don't collect cards though, only they guys I like
INever really liked DD, most guys you play online are toxic, I always played in online franchise you didn't have that [censored] in there
I play DD mostly offline and I played MTO 4 season but it feels to much as moments
RTTS was always fun but they linked it too much too DD
Franchise mode is still fun

As my boy big AL from LLWS said, I hit dingers

I grind stubs so I can buy any player I want when I want. That is really all that is left for an online player like me. Basically trying out new swings and waiting for new content. Sad but true.

My main goal is to have all Reds cards, they release new ones and I need stubs to buy them. So after completing LS, which I haven't done, I keep playing to have stubs for Reds cards, but yes usually once I have LS done I find a bit of a struggle to grind. But I still over playing the game, it's fun. And you know always new cards to try out.

haha year right.I've been hearing this a lot and I don't understand it.
I have been busy a lot of this year and I haven't gotten to play nearly as much as in 21 but even then I've still played a fair share of ranked in both games and I don't see how they are bad. In fact, they're quite fun and challenging. This opinion may be influenced by the fact I have a PS5 and a monitor but there is still nothing as fun as playing ranked and the competition that brings IMO. -
I love baseball. I play for fun.

@cosmic_wonders said in Why do you guys play?:
You challenge yourself to do things you’ve never done before like make World Series in ranked seasons. I’m talking 900 rating not 300-400 innings
Clean up your settings to make it more online friendly and work on strategies to win a 9 inning competitive game
Clean up my settings to make it more online friendly? What you mean by that? I’d love to play online more if I didn’t suck so bad so please elaborate
I’d like to know this too. I suck but I can hold my own on Veteran. Bumping to All star I get lit up like a pinball machine.. so just curious what exactly you mean

I got all the Reds LS cards, but was disappointed they gave out an 83 Perez as a reward given his Big Dog Card performs better for me. Would have been cool if the made it a Dave Concepcion instead

Yeah, only a lame gold card because the LS collection has no diamonds. In fact when I did it, they didn't even have a gold card.
Would be nice to see a DC card, just to give us another BRM player.

I like baseball and the graphics are pretty good.
I don’t have time to get into long drawn out games.
I can’t play 1st person games…I get motion sickness.

I never played baseball, but always kind of wished I could have. Also, the few times I played in friendly games I hit pretty well even as much of an amateur as I am. For a long time, I just played challenge of the week, but now I play some head-to-head games, too. The game as a whole has helped give me a little better understanding of the real thing.
-
Because baseball is awesome and so is this game.
