Anyone else??
I’m finding it harder and harder to get excited to play this game. I love baseball and I’ve enjoyed MLBTheShow for years. I was excited for the changes this year and looking forward to the grinds.
But in my opinion, the content has been boring, the programs are monotonous, and unless you’re walking on water with pack luck, the collections are out of reach unless your willing to spend a few hundred dollars on stubs. (Has there been a stub sale yet this year??)
First of all, I suuuuck at online play. Some days I feel like I can make a WS run, most days I can’t hit water from a boat.
When the new Ohtani collection dropped, I was really excited and assumed he’d be and end-game card. After 11 starts I have him at 2-9 with a 9+ ERA, lol!! I’m batting .077 with him too. His splitter gets whacked and his slider has very little break. His fastball is nasty, but that’s about it.
I thought it was just me, because like I said…I suck in online games. Then I faced him in an event game. I got 5 hits with 3-HRs in the 2-innings my opponents used him. So if I can hit him, the card must suck, lol.
Also, no sinker and no ability to use him in the outfield or as a pinch hitter is a huge L, IMO. I mean, he’s not new to the league and he’s always been a 2-way player. C’mon SDS!!
Anyone else have similar experience with Ohtani??
