Been posting here since 14, if we are counting credentials. I agree with Chuck, but not just because of this game. The pre order game phenomenon has literally ruined games and developers, in conjunction with mirco transactions. The focus has moved from making sure a game works out of the box, to we'll fix it as we go. In no other industry would consumers allow this. Couple this with the growing and invasive in-game transactions, and all games are slowly going to pot. Is SDS as bad as others? No, but the focus is clearly on the money making aspect of each game now.

Ahhh... Skyrim. That takes me back. Love that game. Will be pre-ordering today for 22.

I've heard so much about it, seems to be a lot of people's favorite or top 5. It's even a blast so far.

I seriously nearly got divorced over Morrowind, which is an earlier Elder Scrolls game. I've spent untold hours on Skyrim and played through so many times that it is ridiculous. The great thing about it is the open world and the replay factor.

Glad to hear you are enjoying it. The Elder Scrolls games are, hands down, some of the best games ever made.

EA... Where sports games go to die.

I got it first go. Pitching moments are always the easiest... I prefer them.

Just about all of them. lol

I'm all set for launch. Had my shoulder operated on and have at least four weeks off. Been practicing on 21, so I'll be fine to waste hours when it first hits.

Done w this game until content is relevant foh w da bs trash waste of time garbage smh

I'd see the doctor about the stroke you had mid sentence.

Keep the PS5. I have both (XBox X, as well) and it is a night and day difference form the older consoles, tbh.

It's comical how bad this game is playing right now, during the most important time of the baseball season . You can't write material this good.

Poor WS banner in the event just now, I'm sorry for that off PCI HR that opened the flood gates. Don't feel bad, my next opponent struck out his first 3 batters flailing at everything. It was promptly corrected by SDS the next inning and he couldn't miss a ball. He was promptly served spaghetti and meatballs, and even with dog timing he was rewarded with HRs.

We've entered Who's Line is is Anyway territory here. Welcome to MLB The Show where PCI placement doesn't matter and the points scored will leave you flummoxed

I loved that show. Awesome reference and one of the reasons that I haven't ventured back online since early in the game cycle.

Scenes from a hat was my favorite.

Loved that and the hoedown.

Just about all of them. lol

I play whenever I can, so not as much as I'd like, but I have around 19-20 cards P5. Last year, I only had three.

Meant to quote @FooFencer_NSW

Absolutely nailed it. I have seen some of the dumbest things in the market this year. I'll give you two examples. Silver uni bought for 100 stubs (75 of them), sold for a 111 stubs. Quick sell value = 100. Quick maths... 111 take away 10% tax = 100 stubs. Another example for you, Johan Duran went gold and his Quick sell value is 600 stubs. There are a ton of orders that will lose money, at this very moment, because they don't understand how the market works.

SDS is very clever, not every diamond or gold has the same qs value anymore and people are literally too stupid to check.

Interesting that SDS offers tutorials on how to play the game for new users, but not a guide to how to use the market more effectively, or at least in a way that makes any modicum of sense.

So many, it's been ridiculous. Lol

No idea, good luck with that one. Might help if you state what system

I assuming that since he has a PS logo next to his name, it would be the PlayStation. I'll apologise if I'm wrong.

I found his card very surprising online. I've only played a couple of games online and wasn't expecting much because I'm not all that good, but Michael Young went 4 for 5 in my first game and hit a 476 foot bomb. He got a couple of hits in my second game as well. Horses for course, I guess.

@rikstarr1970_xbl said in The game isn’t a good experience:

Then here’s my question. If the game isn’t a good experience, then why play it?

My question is this. When did English become optional?

Anyone that steps into the batting box when I actually do go online to play, which is rarely. The one that surprised me the most, though, is Michael Young - first game online he went 4 for 5 with 476 foot bomb. Took me by surprise really, because I don't like hitting with him when I grind offline.

I got lucky last night and l pulled DeGrom from a free program pack. All I need now is Acuna. I guess I will have to finally pay for a diamond. I can't complain, I've pulled a ton (all of them but one) of them from packs, some multiple times.

So glad I missed that thread, but I'm not sure how I did. Been banned so many times for what I thought were innocuous things. The perma-ban on my original account was probably warranted, but still a little harsh.

I just try to stay out of anything now. lol
