I uninstalled today

So i loved Set 1 and 2. I took a break from August - Early October so i missed alot of Set 3/Set 4. Absolutely loved Set 5 and i played Set 6 for the simple fact i could actually use all my players. So i loved Set 1,2,5. I dont like to constantly grind for people i wont be able to use going forward. I know they will adjust sets and seasons, we can't have it where you can't use the cards you love. No point in grinding.

We need a weekend league. Make ranked mean something. We've been asking for years and years. It can't just be about world series rewards.
-
Intergrate Storylines more into DD. 2.7% of folks completed the rewards (you can see on your trophies how many people actually finished) which is pathetic, with day 1 99's and so many. The Captain buck oneil with the sanford brown crew was cool for like 2 weeks and became absolete.

@LoneBlackMan said in I uninstalled today:
I think I have wrung every ounce of entertainment out of Mlb the show this year. This is by far the longest I've stayed active playing. To me 23 was the best version of the show in the past 5 years. Had a great time playing. Didn't uninstall because of fatigue. Rather I just want to reset before 24 drops. I think I won't enjoy 24 as much if I'm still playing 23. That said a few things and maybe some ideas for next games:
-
No more day 1 99's. If everyone is elite, then no one is. Every card felt the same and lineups lost a lot of uniqueness.
-
Sets and seasons needs a rework. The grind 99 was already exhausting, but then I can't even use the card very long before it's restricted
-
Lineouts, lineouts, lineouts. I have never had so many perfect perfect lineouts ever. Also way too many perfect flyouts. Not sure why the frequency is so high, but it's frustrating flying out to the warning track on a perfect with Mike trout ( has happened to me multiple times)
-
Managers instead of captains.i loved the idea of captains, but in execution I was very disappointed. I never actually used the captain, I simply subbed in a 99. I think having manager cards could confer boosts to teams while not taking up a player slot. Like Bruce Bochy raising clutch and contact or Joe Maddon raising baserunning and defense. Rather that than a card I won't actually use anyway
Gave the show 23 a B+ this year. Had a blast playing and hope they continue to build off this iteration.
this is a pretty solid review and final grade for 23.

The grinding for players you never want to use is terrible. 23 unironically had you grinding for 91's months after showering you with 99's. Then the f----ery of manipulating attributes to make some 99's wimps and some 97's 110's. Did we ever know if clutch impacted OVR???
When I can not only feel but SEE the man behind the curtain pulling the levers, I'm close to being out.
