It's honestly amazing how good this game is

For me, the best part of the game is easily Moments, far and away the most fun to be had.
I only wish they would bring back Immortals instead of giving all these great cards away for practically nothing.
You said it! Amen! I just wish the moments never ended. They don’t challenge you enough.

It is a very good game. Those who disagree have been playing versions of the game for too long.
Every game will get stale at some point. You’ll see all the dumb animations over and over again, same commentary. But for the casual, great game.
This is definitely the best version too. I think they really nailed it with content for the most part outside of moments (aka time sinks)

The graphics, the gameplay, different modes, the different moments, all of the legends, RTTS......this game seriously has it all. Never in all of my years did I think I'd see video games come this far, and this game is the best sports game out there at the moment by a country mile.
A major pat on the back to SDS for what they have done, I hope they continue this for years to come.
I just got done defending the game from someone who said the game gets worse every year but the graphics were slightly disappointing on next gen which will hopefully see more of a true next gen upgrade with 22. Outside of the fluky non squared up homeruns and bloop [censored] hits which have been an issue since they switched to the ball physics hitting engine, this years game saw some great improvements especially with check swings and pinpoint which they actually improved with the patch.

I used to list George Carlin as my favorite comedian whenever someone would ask. He has finally been replaced. Welcome to the top of the mountain sir!

You must not have tried online DD yet...lol But I will agree the graphics and animations are unbeatable.
DD is the absolute best part of this game. Obviously there are tons of babies on here who cry everytime something doesn't go their way....but
But what if something doesn't go your way through no fault of your own?...
...like fielding a routine ball and easily stepping on first base for the 3rd out, but instead he steps around the base and just stands there allowing the runner to reach safely:

...or a failed squeeze play, your catcher should easily tag out the runner coming home but doesn't, and then after throwing it to the 3rd baseman, you preset the throw to home with perfect release on 'green' meter, but instead just holds onto the ball allowing the runner to score:

These are just a couple examples, which I have so much more. But if these examples happened to you, wouldn't you have the right to be upset?
Yes, this game is amazing. But depending on how you look at it, it can also be amazing in a different way.

Who's burner account is this? 🤪
I actually agree, i love this game, but this game can drive you bonkers, especially the scripted unassisted DP at first base, for instance.

Shameful plug there, Ramone.

I agree with this poster, and find it well balanced. Most of the complaints I see seem to not watch real baseball. In real life, a lot of perfectly hit hard balls go for outs. Pitches off the plate sometimes go for big doubles or home runs. The most dominate teams win ~100 games out of 162. And in games I'm in, even when matched against someone way better than me (which is frequent), the final score is realistic. I wouldn't want this game to be such that the gameplay is such that when you get really good all your players bat 800 and the scores are in the fifties. To me, it feels like baseball and I love it. My only complaint is that I enjoy it when the best cards are in the mid-90s and you can level up. I don't like it as much when everyone starts fielding 99 teams and most hitters have 120+ power and the pitchers are all ridiculous. I'd like an option to play RS with a team rating cap.

Hes an offline player

Game is in a really good spot. Patience and methodical gameplay is rewarded over hyper-aggressiveness. Strategy is a big factor in winning. The only thing i'd want changed is the effectiveness of that darn sinker. High sinkers are too effective in game and they wouldn't be IRL

Content is KING
-
I love the two extremes on this site. It's the worst game ever and the greatest game ever at the same time!
-
I figured I’d switch things up from the normal “WAH THIS GAME SUCKS ITS NOT REALISTIC OMGGGGGGGGG IM NOT GOOD AT THIS GAME BUT ILL BLAME IT ON THE GAME” posts
-
I agree... this is a really good sports game and DD is better than other team building modes I've played. The only issue I have is the bizarre things that happen in online games like... catcher freezing during steals, bad contact hits, ect. The game definitely plays better offline and should be the same.
-
I have issues with the game as a middling-at-best DD player, but all in all, it is a very good game. yes, there is a learning curve that needs to be overcome, but it's very fun and rewarding.

How have check swings been fixed? I get it, check swings last year were an absolute disaster, but this year its just as bad except flipped. Please explain to me how this company can't figure out what constitutes a checked swing in baseball? You barely flinch now and it's a checked swing.

This game is horrendous. I’m sick of people sticking up for SDS. Content is the only thing that has saved this game since 19. SDS is producing [censored] just like EA, because they know there isn’t a better option.
-
Content is good, and they deserve praise for making it easy to build good/great teams without spending money on stubs.
Gameplay is not good. Played for 4 years now and it's never been close to good. The field plays so small that it's HRs or nothing.
This may be the best sports game on the market (haven't played any others for years) but that's more an indictment of other games than it is praise for The Show.

Makes me laugh all the people who hate this game yet play it everyday (and complain and cry ) like clockwork at a certain point u might need therapy.

It's not the worst or best. It's probably worth the price, but it's not a sports simulation. If your intent is to buy a game in order to "compete" with fellow human..this ain't it.
If you understand you're playing against AI even when you're "playing" against a human opponent..it's all good.
