Where Do Sports Games Need to Focus Most? (Roundtable)

[BannaCricket]

I personally dislike the fantasy modes that sports games are spending all of their time on, particularly*EA. They might as well change the names of the games to "NHL Fantasy 19", "FIFA Fantasy 19", and "NFL Fantasy 19". Sports games are catering more toward casual fans who are just looking for a video game. Fans who don't know Dustin Brown from Charlie Brown; Rangers FC from the Power Rangers; or the Philadelphia Eagles from The Eagles of Death Metal. And don't even care. That's fine. To each, his own. If creating a fantasy sports universe is your thing, then go for it. It just sucks that people who still enjoy playing with actual professional sports teams, are having an increasingly difficult time doing so. Features that add to realism, such as the ability to edit players once starting an NHL season, have been taken away. A couple of years ago, the NHL devs decided that the NHL series would be the only sports game that lists players by rating -not alphabetically, with out the ability*to sort- making if frustrating and time consuming trying to find players. This year the FIFA devs decided that to take away calendars from tournament*mode, making it impossible to view you fixtures. I don't play Madden, but I would not surprised if it is being decimated as well.
I don't even give a crap what new "features" there will implemented anymore. I just want to know what they are taking away from us.*
