You obviously never played ‘18. ‘19 and ‘20 have absolutely [censored] all over the content from ‘16, ‘17 and ‘18 in terms of team versatility by adding a multitude of useable cards, staying away from the pay to win model that most UT modes are based on and keeping players engaged with regular new content.
There are many problems with the game, but content is not of them. The amount of free cards you can earn simply by playing is staggering and I’m of the opinion that content is fine.
I have actually played all those game, every one. Cards are great as I said in my op, but cards aren't content to me. Why do we not have create a stadium for franchise? Relocation where you don't use another teams stadium and have they're logo everywhere? What happened to setting concession, merchandise prices? That's content - your expanding a mode you already have. But they consistently neglect what they have for the sake of DD, I don't need 4 different Smoltz cards. By this logic Madden has great content, expand what you have not neglect and delete what was already there for the sake of the almighty stub purchases.
I’m a DD player personally, so that doesn’t affect me. I know franchise has needed reworking for many years and has been consistently neglected, but as you say, DD has micro transactions, which have been removed from RTTS and Franchise modes. I have no idea why they haven’t incorporated some of the ideas we saw as far back as MVP Baseball in 2004, such as ticket pricing, concessions and merchandise. I’d like to see create a stadium in DD, with certain limits in place to prevent them getting too ridiculous. It would be nice to have a vault for stadiums too, as we do with logos and rosters, so we could download and use other players creations.
In my opinion, that’s not content though. I tend to think of content as being additional DLC that’s added post launch to keep the game fresh and drive stub sales, just as you said. Things like overhauling franchise and adding a create a stadium mode are new features to be added year to year pre-launch.
