@schnauzerface said in 'Twas the night before The Show...:
‘Twas the night before The Show, and anticipation was at a fervor
But not a thing was working correctly, not even a server.
Preorders were made and the legends revealed,
SDS hoped that last year’s wounds were all healed.
The fanbase was huddled in front of their consoles
While exploiters were dreaming of capitalizing on loopholes.
That stupid Coach puppet, whose voice is so grating,
Announced Tatis’s laughably inflated overall rating.
When out from our dashboards came a new notification!
It’s time to download The Show to your Switch or Xbox or Playstation!
Immediately we started the download and install,
In just a few moments, we’d be playing baseball!
But, alas! As has been since time immemorial,
First we would all have to play a pointless 9-inning tutorial.
Finally, the game begins and what do we behold?
Our favorite player has been disrespected with an 82 gold.
Never mind that! Time to get started,
But here comes a server error. O, the broken-hearted!
We load and reload and reload and reload once more,
I swear to God if this doesn’t work I’m throwing my TV out the front door.
Hour after frustrating hour has passed
And by 4 am, we log in at last!
Let’s start easy, we think, with a quick game of conquest
What's this? Somehow the game played better in tech test.
Fielding and hitting and pitching are far beyond broken
“We are aware of technical glitches,” says The Show Twitter. SDS has spoken!
Now, Colin! Now, Luis! Now, our friend Ramone Russell!
Fix this effing game, and we beg you to hustle!
I wanted to be civil, but I have no choice but to break from decorum,
And spend the next 12 months bitching about this game on your very own forum.
Looks like someone is still salty over trading away Tatis for James Shields lol
