Re: IGN MLB 24 The Show First Look

Oh so they are just a **** company and there is no explanation for this turd they are about to drop? I guess that's what you can do when you have a fan base that would blindly buy anything they put out. Sad.

Also I think Ramone had too much power within SDS now and needs to be taken off the Show.

Jesus christ, knock it off.

Just curious and this is not in any way my way of saying do not speak your mind. But if you are so dead set the game will suck, will be trash and as you said a turd. Why waste any of your time following it or posting? Why not just go find something you do find enjoyable?

MAAAAN i have said this same thing a bunch of times. Those that hate each release, hate SDS, hate the fans who buy the game, why are you still here?

Not trying to escalate this. However, this reminds me of “America-love it or leave it.” You can still love the game, or used to love the game, and still be critical of issues you see with it. This is a board designed just for that purpose. Will the complaints change anything? Prob not. But this is almost like therapy for some people who used to sooo look forward to this release. Find that special spot that had it early, run home, get completely invested. It was like a holiday. If you feel that game just doesn’t exist anymore and you can’t voice it to like minded people here, what’s the point?

I agree with everything you said 100%. However, you can be critical of something without acting like a spoiled toddler that is unable to control its anger.

You make a fair point. Liking/loving the game but still bringing up the things you wish they would add/improve is a lot different than coming on here and calling the game trash/turd, calling people dumb for buying it and generally continuously announcing that you won't buy the game, or haven't bought the game in 5 years. To THOSE people I say "why are you still here?" That was the point I was making.

To play devil's advocate, where else are they going to go if they want to see where the state of AAA MLB gaming is?

I've done something similar. There were some years with Madden, many, actually, that I stopped buying the game because it was in a bad place to me, yet I still came to OS annually to follow the information outflow for the new game, I still came to discuss what I felt the game needed to do to become better so that people like myself would return to buying it again.

I didn't call the game trash, EA lazy, or flame those that bought it. I don't think that's the right way to go about it, but I still followed the game despite not buying it for half a decade. It was the only NFL game in town and I wanted to see it get better so I could finally play a modern NFL game I enjoyed again. I imagine that's the same reason many still follow The Show even if they aren't buying it, playing it, and/or enjoying it anymore.

As far as I am aware, this is not a board for people that find the game great in all facets. Those that are displeased with the series should be able to come in here and express themselves as well. Both sides need to do it properly, though, which seems to be a struggle.

Trolling at its best.

Good points. I used to play madden every year religiously. I stopped playing because I really just stopped liking the game. Every year I stop over to that discussion board to see what's going on with the latest release. Once I realize its more of the same, I just wait until the next release and then check again. That's it. I don't go there and b**** about it for weeks.

For whatever issues there are with the Show, the last peoples I can blame are the vast and overwhelmingly majority of fans that still enjoy it enough to purchase and play.
What IS sad are the peoples who don't enjoy it but blame their problem with the game on those that do enjoy. I don't play things like Diamond Dynasty or RTTS or March to October, but I am thankful there are those that spend their money on them. I firmly believe they are funding my Franchise Mode and without them, I probably wouldn't have a new baseball video game every year to enjoy Franchise Mode.

I think a problem is that people would rather see more improvements in areas such as Franchise rather than DD, RTTS or March to October.

You think the series would have died without DD?

I dont think it would have died but I think Sony would have cut their budget for MLB. The fan base for video game baseball just isnt as deep as football, basketball or soccer. At the end of the day, its what killed MLB2K, not The Show. Directly, any way.

The Show is one of the best selling games in the country. Always finds itself within the top 10-15 selling games each year.

I think the series would be fine, personally. I shutter thinking about the progression of the series if they didn't have the DD money rolling in.
