How SDS Has Become Disconnected from the MLB The Show Community
-
This franchise is dying everyone can see it. It's about to be All Star weekend and this game has like 500 viewers on Twitch most the time. The game's social media pages are dead outside of people complaining how bad the game is. Overall engagement is down from years past.
Game sucks and is cooked unfortunately, and they have shown they have no interest in listening to the community and fixing things.

You don't really need to look beyond KevinGohD videos to see what is happening.
His last 12 videos in reverse order over the last month have been

DD (Battle Royale)
DD (ranked)So, other than the Toxic Stadium video, posted on June 6th, he has not posted a MLB 24 DD video since May 16th. That is coming up on 6 weeks.
He has not posted a MLB 24 DD video at all since Season 2 dropped.

I don’t think they are ignoring I just don’t think they are transparent.

Hard to be a “content creator” for a game with no content coming out besides paywalled cards locked behind expansive packs

This game is a great metaphor for life and socialist society.
Go ahead and try and go back to the good old days.....stop all the free diamonds and everyone having a 90+ overall team 4 days after release....go back to when you had to grind just to earn a bronze Robin Yount, then grind that card for his silver, grind that for his gold, and then grind that for his diamond.....the masses will scream "Unfair" across the seas...
We the few, we the baseball people, are outnumbered by the selfish and the greedy. While many conplain, many would flip out if they went back to the way it was....the way it should be. The good Ole days when the game was fun and grinding felt good.

It should be clear I absolutely hate the direct Sony/SDS has taken with this game this year but stop saying nonsense like 'paywalled'. Nothing in this game is paywalled. Everything is earnable in game and there is no reason to drop a cent on this game past the initial purchase. Doesnt mean packs arent out of control though. The sad thing is packs arent even the biggest issue with 2024 though, its the lack of content
The question is will 2025 be a correction and a return to content, or will they double down and actually start to teach people what paywalling is.
