    Have you heard of the sunk cost fallacy? Because that's basically what you wrote here.

    Yes I know what that is so whats your point. I already feel like a moron paying for this so might as well suffer for this decision. Its not like ive spent money on anything else besides the actual game. Let me play and suffer with this trash because if i dont play it i will still feel like a moron knowing i paid for this trash. My chances of buying mlb the show 21 is literally at 0 percent.

    Sorry im not trying to get at you or be mean im just pissed i bought this game at the moment.

    I get that, I guess I just don't understand it is all. My mentality is if I don't like something, I actively avoid it. It's not worth putting myself through that a cycle of playing, getting mad, playing, getting mad. When I do that, it genuinely affects my general attitude/emotions.

    Be careful if you voice your opinion on here or get upset you might get banned. Almost happened to me. The buthurt offended kids are gonna come hunt you down for not suffering on the game with them. I'm done for the rest of the year too

    The thing that makes it tough is how much fun it was early release/pre patches. There is still hope!

    I think for me its because ive played mlb the show since 2006 and was extremely excited for this years version and not only has it been underwhelming but its been a month and a half and yet the problems still exists. I guess im just hoping this [censored] of a game gets changed around. I will tell you watching mlb players like snell and gallo and others complain about fielding and pitching during their players tournament is funny and also validating that not just us forum gamers are pointing out flaws.

    Not nationally-ranked no, I'd call myself above average, I finished just outside the top 200 last year in ranked (though that's mostly because of the amount of games played). But I'm nowhere on the level of a guy like Mitch who's on here all the time.

    Yeah, I’m grinding showdowns because online play is awful. It’s all a waste of time though. Why bother obtaining cards if there’s no decent online game mode to use them in?

    I've actually gone back and started playing MLB 19. I then played a few games of 16. 16 hitting was clean.

    There are LOTS of offline players who still collect the cards because they enjoy collecting and playing with those players.

    Do we need an all diamond team to beat Conquest or the CPU in a 9 inning game? No. But that does not mean we still don't enjoy collecting and using an all diamond team.

    That’s fine, but I personally stopped buying games to play vs cpu about 5 years ago. If a game doesn’t have online multiplayer, I’m out. The last game I played offline was the story mode to GTA 5 and although I’ve briefly played single player only titles that I’ve appreciated, such as Mafia 3, it feels like you’re only getting half a game these days if it’s offline only. Unfortunately, times have changed and so have the tastes of gamers. I’m going to play the offline modes in MLB ‘20, because I’ve already purchased it. Had I known RS would be in the state it’s in, I wouldn’t have purchased ‘20 at all, because that’s the mode I mainly play. That’s the mode I spend thousands of hours in every year and that’s the only mode I’d even consider spending real money on upgrading my team for. Any card will hit well offline, the game plays completely balanced and fairly outside of diamond dynasty, sadly it’s just extremely boring and pointless to me personally. A never ending grind with zero sense of reward, playing infinite franchise seasons and so on. With RS everything comes together, it’s a nine inning game, as baseball should be. It allows you to use any of the cards you spent vast amounts of time and money collecting to build a team and face another human doing the same thing. It has a sense of progression, in terms of climbing the divisions and also in the sense that each season has a start and end point, once it’s over, it’s over. You do what you can in the time you’re allowed. It also has tiered rewards, which feed into the sense of achievement and progression as you play. There’s no other mode that incorporates these crucial aspects together. Not online nor offline. That’s the game I want to play.
    I’m sure if they removed RTTS, or broke it completely, players who only play RTTS would feel the same way. Anyway, in light of the fact that SDS have made a terrible game two out of the last three years, broken my only game mode of choice and they don’t seem to even realise it or attempt to fix it, I won’t be around for another dose of the same medicine next March.

    I am the exact opposite. I just don't have the patience to deal with competitive online play. I only play solo games, where my enjoyment cannot be ruined by others. As a certified old man at this point I don't see that changing. 🙂
