    You could just play the game for the sake of enjoyment

    @BJDUBBYAH I hate this arguement.
    I have probably like 4 to 5 thousand hours of the show in my lifetime. If I did this only for the enjoyment of playing, I wouldve stopped years ago.
    The joy for some like myself is that of pushing for a card that you want and grinding for it. Finally getting to try it out. See if it is good against other players.
    That is the enjoyment for some.
    Thats why some people play games on different difficulties for enjoyment. The challenge and perseverance. Instead we are being stifled on what we can do over fear of people progressing to fast just from playing the game. Not exploiting. JUST PLAYING THE GAME.

    I’m at 500k XP. From playing the game. Offline and online.
    I don’t feel entitled to a reward for everything I do I the game, as I enjoy playing the game.

    @BJDUBBYAH congrats man, you are a simp for SDS, we get it. Most of would like our gameplay to have purpose though too.
    I see where you are coming from. But it sounds really boring that being it.
    You honestly can't say it doesn't feel more difficult to earn things this year.

    They’ll probably never be as good as packs ever again. Yelich is almost shockingly good from them tbh.

    Last year: Early 99s killed the game. It wasn't fun.
    This year: Power creep is no fun. These rewards are too boring.

    How did you get to 500K? I'm only at 300K and have finished all programs, minus the last "egg," TA, all conquest maps, all storylines, half a mini season, and hit the 15K most days since early access started. Not arguing, just curious.

    Despite what people will say to you, which I can only assume are their employees or pseudo employees (aka YTers or streamers) like the one who already replied to you

    BTW, that may be the laziest argument in gaming right now and it has been for a while. The "I don't like something so everyone who disagrees with me is a shill, paid or otherwise" argument completely ignores the fact that there is no benefit to be gained by being a shill on this forum.

    It would be like me saying that everyone who likes this years MLB The Show soundtrack is a shill because I find it to be absolutely awful. In the end it just boils down to different tastes.

    To me, the person using that as an argument is far less reasonable than the person they are accusing of being disingenuous.

    There is a power creep so the rewards are relatively good, considering the other cards available.

    Regardless, this is better than last year when they would release a 99 in a Chase pack, then have us grinding for 97's.

    Who made any comment about power creep being no fun? The whole point of my post is about not having any decent packs as rewards in programs/conquest anymore. You aren’t the sharpest tool in the shed, are you?

    I don’t see why people are confusing this post as me disliking power creep. I’d rather have power creep than 99s day one like last year. However, last year we got several packs valued at 30-40k for free from grinding through conquests and other programs while this year we are only able to acquire those same packs by paying 40k stubs in the market. Throwing a fresh start choice pack in the egg hunt reward path or as a hidden reward in the new conquest would be awesome. And yes, the player rewards have been good, but 90% of player rewards earned on the reward paths are no sell cards. Without having those choice packs or anything sellable from grinding, you basically have to hope to have great pack luck from show packs to build any sort of stub count.

    And also, there are 92s and 93s out right now, yet we’re grinding out for 91s. It’s no different in that regard.

    I honestly think the choice pack rewards are just not good enough this year to give them away for free. If everyone got one for free in a program no one would buy them since they lack buying power.

    If they know the packs are bad, they should probably put more daughter after players in the packs😂
