I’m done buying the game after this year. I know a lot of you play online but I myself feel at peace just playing the computer with a beer in hand and relaxing and grinding but this year so far has been absolutely boring. I mean I haven’t even seen much online content either but again I don’t play online. I think it’s been all about money with the developers getting greedy and not wanting to really get the game lifted off the ground. Next year when the lockout is on and there is no baseball the developers will be out money.

Im done after this year as well. Slow as molasses menus. Zero thought into new content. This was just a cut and paste from years before and nothing was addressed to better the game. What a lazy company.
-
@SiberiaTigerCub_PSN Not buying 27 either. I thought content was getting better, but it was a light week this week and now nothing until Friday. Pathetic. Can’t wait for GTA6.

after 21 years and owning nearly all of the editions released this is my last one. All i wanted was rtts bugs fixed and 5 weeks after the last bug fixes still nothing from sds and i cant play half of my players cause the bugs preventing them from progressing still arent addressed

Every update makes it worse and gets me excited for Pro Spirits to release in July.
-
@dodgers19k88_MLBTS hoping pro spirits is bug free!

Every update makes it worse
I swear it's like every update they're not fixing anything of substance...nothing gets added onto, or upgraded or updated

Sarge,
The coding team lacks the talent to revamp the game. The coding team doesn't even have the remaining talent onboard to code up a revised menu slate without causing major game bugs. Through layoffs and coder boredom causing talented coders to go elsewhere for some true creative challenge, I think SDS is left with insufficient talent to take MLB The Show to the next level.
I also think SDS knows this.
End result? A game title that is plodding along trying to milk all the profit potential out of the title until the revenue cannot keep pace with Sony's demands for the profit sharing stipends. Then, SDS gets sold off. The executives live on their nest eggs. The employees with any talent look elsewhere in a depleted market filled with AI craze to replace humans, and eventually MLB realizes that without a video game for their product, they are losing fans and interest.
At this point, which will of course be in the future after the salary cap and floor are rammed through over the lockout and hidebound objection of the players union (driven by the agents), MLB will find another company to market an MLB themed video game.
I believe that will all take about two to three years longer to play out. I don't believe there will be a 2027 MLB season at all. At earliest, we see a revised MLB setup for the 2028 season and then around 2029 to 2030 we see MLB expand to 32 teams.

Last year was my first playing the Show. I fell in love with the game and the collection concept. That much that it became my sole hobby for several months.
I can't believe how less fun I have this year. It is night and day.
This year, getting XP is tougher, getting stubs is tougher, getting packs is tougher, finishing XP Innings is tougher and, obviously, finishing collection is tougher. Even the online programs were more fun and line-up challenging last year.
I don't ask for much: just to get a real chance to finish most collections while playing casually and have fun doing so.
I already took two five days or longer breaks from the game this year. I would NEVER have tought about doing such a thing last year.
I am really contemplating the idea of giving up for the rest of the year.
One thing is certain, I won't buy this game next year. I will probably migrate on Switch 2 and play other games that I can't play right now on the Switch.
Or just go outside to make a change
