    If it was online franchise they would label it online franchise as they know that it would bring people back.
    Thank you. I made the mistake of going to Reddit. Made a post basically saying what you did. And got blasted for it.

        Reddit is good enough for info, just don't dive into the actual discussions haha.

            Why, oh why, no Manage-Only Mode?

            There is a large and faithful MLB The Show user base that actually enjoys MOM, so why does SDS continue to blow that mode off? How tough could that be to code into the game?

            Online MOM , with full management capabilities, would be really an exciting add to this great game.

                I don't understand why people always ask about manger only mode why OOTP exists and is 10 times the better game.

                    And the fact you can watch the game if you want, there is absolutely zero reason to not get OOTP and play that if you’re into manager only mode, unless you do not own a PC of any kind.

                        (Pretty sure there's even a decent OOTP on tablet/phone)

                        But look I'm not saying peeps can't like what they like, just Manager Only Mode is a tough ask in terms of priority.

                            Hate to break it to you, gaming companies are going to offer minimal support for any sort of CPU v CPU mode in console games as it's an incredibly small and VERY niche following (though I can see it being a slight bump higher for baseball due to its history with games like strat-o-matic and so on).

                            As others have said, you truly would be much better off playing OOTP to scratch that itch and use The Show when you feel like playing a game.
                            Play the games you love, not the games you want to love.

                                I don't doubt the passion and loyalty of this fan base, but I think OS gives an atypical view of this particular subset of fans. I would guess a vast majority of fans who buy the MLB the Show games are there to play the games and not watch them.

                                I am not knocking how anyone plays the game they use their money to pay for but with this being a very low demand thing and with the existence of OOTP, this will never even reach their priority list at SDS.

                                        I'd say it's 10 times a DIFFERENT game, but not necessarily better. for what the Show is meant for, it does that better than OOTP, and for what OOTP is meant for, it does that better than the Show. it's like comparing Mike Trout to Justin Verlander, or apples to pencils.

                                            In an ideal world we have all the OOTP Franchise management aspects integrated to the fully animated immersive 3D world of MLB20.

                                                    The guy literally asked about manager only mode. That’s why he brought up OOTP. So yeah, OOTP is light years better for that.
