2018 vs 2022
-
17 was great for content but I think a lot of people like it for nostalgia reasons. You could get jammed on an inside fastball and hit a oppo no-doubter. Not to mention the horrible fielding animations and baserunning cheese.
19 started great, then everything was a lineout, or warning track out. Plus every game was vs Kluber to start, Newhouser to close or vise versa.
21 is the best DD in my opinion. I didn’t really care about the outlier stuff. I wish it wasn’t just a sinker fest, but it wasn’t bad enough for me to not consider it the best DD.
21 had way less hung pitches and you could actually strike people out. I think if they patch 22 to have less foul offs and actually be able to strike people out, it has potential to be the best.

Hitting outcomes are way too random and inconsistent this year and last year to ever be better than 16/17. Those jammed hits and bombs from 17 came about after the "just late be great" patch that started the huge downfall we're seeing today

Bottom line is that every year MLBTS has it pro's & con's with game play, missions, rewards, content, modes, etc, etc. With each year it may have more pro's than con's or have more con's than pro's. Many will have their own opinions with which year was best & why.
SDS tweaks stuff, make changes, brings out new ideas & concepts every year trying to get it right to please the majority. But every year they swing & miss with most. So we really can NOT blame SDS because too many of us have our own opinions, thoughts, ideas & suggestions with what this game should be like. maybe this forum does more harm then good.
