Are we nearing the end of MLB The Show?

[Lisac]

Im just on here looking to see what people's opinions are-

I myself bought a Playstation for MLB The Show and for no other game. But for me the game the past few years has become stale.
Im a Franchise only player and now with No Online Franchise, Still No Create A Stadium or Relocation and Ridin Rosters not coming out til mid Summer I dont know if this game is a must have anymore!

Just curious to hear some feedback!
Cheers!

It's still a must have for me personally. The carryover save feature allows me to stay engrossed in my virtual franchise without having to start over, and be able to enjoy that franchise with the upgrades to gameplay, presentation, and franchise with each new installment.

No.

Maybe you’re nearing the end of playing the game, but the title itself is nowhere near in trouble. Just because it doesn’t feature modes or settings that interest you or I doesn’t mean the game will cease to exist.

In the exact same boat. Might cash in some Amazon credit to get the game at some point, but it's no longer worthy of spending my own money on until franchise gets overhauled. Doesn't mean the game is nearing the end, of course, but for my preferences, I'm nearing the point of letting go.

Lmao not at all.

I do see trouble ahead for sports games that have gambled too heavily on their UT/DD modes, but the Show has done probably enough with it's actual gameplay so far that they should be able to steer away from the crash when it happens by investing in other modes, using the solid gameplay they've developed.

Bought both a PS4 and a PS4 Pro primarily for The Show. I'm kind of shocked how quickly I fell out of love with the series these past couple years. We seem to have reached a tipping point where even the developers are aware of long time fans' frustration and hopefully that leads to a shift in focus next year. I don't want to have to wait until the first PS5 release to get excited about this game again.

But yeah, like others said the game isn't dying just because the target demographic has seemingly changed.
