The same joke and, still, no one is laughing

I somewhat struggled through my first 10 outs against feller in the final boss showdown and still beat it first try, my success rate in showdowns is like 98% right now

Bruh...your post reeks of you needing to switch off the console and go for a walk

No offense, bruh, but I just jumped on after not playing the piece of trash for a couple days. I just want my money back. This game is hopeless and not getting any better.

That's the message that needs to be echoed over and over. SDS get your craniums out of your posteriors and write software that, at least, resembles the real thing.

And the other message is, don't listen to anyone on this forum that insinuates this game is about skill. It's not. Anyone that says that nonsense is either a fan-boy or trolling.

Ill play you for 500 dollars and give you a 2 run lead. Maybe after I win by 5 runs youll think differently about skill. Its not like the same 5 players are top of the leaderboards year in and year out. Oh wait they are. This game actually has a skill gap. Thats why there is so much crying.

You suck. Stop sucking. That’ll vastly improve your enjoyment of the game. Outside of that, you’re playing a game that you claim to hate, so the joke is on you. Rather, the joke is you.

The single most important thing that will improve anyone’s enjoyment of the game is to not let results determine whether it’s fun or not and to treat each at bat as a learning opportunity.

We're talking about a randomized animation-generated game...not a simulation where there is enough consistency that you can truly adapt to a reproducible experience.

There are some that try to compare The Show challenges to Boss battles in other games. Like comparing apples to oranges. In the typical Shooter-genre Boss-battle game the "Boss" behaves the same way..always...you have to adapt. By recreating the experience, paying attention, you learn the method to beat the "Boss".

In The Show, the experience is so varied and completely random you can't adapt. You just ride it out, keep playing through the anger, disbelief, and disappointment of a game that coulda been, and hope the randomized animation finally turns up a win.

I have a hell of a time with showdown, perfect perfect outs are the death of me

Learnt that from your at-bats, huh?

In all seriousness, I had forgotten as I read through that this was a Showdown post so I probably should have stayed out of it as Showdown and Moments are purely results-based.
