Don't even get me started on the NHL series...last week(might have been the week before), they released three patches/tuners in five days...completely broke the game...EASHL is flat out unplayable now.
IMHO it's due to having zero competition. To your point, The Show was at some of its best with 2K around, same as NHL. Once the competition disappeared mediocrity took over for the most part
I was a hardcore player of franchise mode in NHL for a while. But if you play that game a lot, which I had done every year since 2006 until this past year, you’ll see how insanely easy it is to score—even if you play on Superstar and have all the sliders set so that they’re fair. Franchise mode is still absolutely no fun and the series continues to just be insanely unrealistic. Just look at this link. 😂 https://m.youtube.com/shorts/ypl2kR_5nBo I absolutely destroyed the CPU in all ten games I played in Franchise mode in 24, but then I quit because I had absolutely no motivation to play the game again. In my opinion, EA is just all out for the money and there have for years just been way too many aspects of that series that have been neglected. I don’t necessarily want to think that, but I don’t think have a choice given what I’ve read and what I’ve been seeing in the series for years now. This year I might just buy and keep The Show 24 and the upcoming NCAA Football game. Then I can alternate between playing the two well into next year if I want and avoid getting burned out. I’m definitely not planning on buying NHL 25.
