Potential MVP return?

[Cod]

I feel like SGO was grasping for content in the video. Just because a produce has baseball in his bio doesn't mean they're working on a game to release. For example, EA no longer makes a basketball game for the console or PC; however, they have a whole department working on AI generated animations using basketball movements. A friend of mine is one of those researchers, loves basketball, but admitted to me all his work is dealing with animation patterns. They just choose basketball to show off their research because it was one of the sports (along with UFC) that allowed for multiple types of movements (offensive, defensive, etc.).


The group presented this at SIGGRAPH 2020:




And this at SIGGRAPH 2021:



So my point is, SGO's sources could've been referring to a group that was doing research on some game mechanic and using baseball as a good representation. For example, baseball would be an ideal title to work on for physics and tracking.

I hope I'm wrong, because I'd love another simulation baseball game like the next person, but hopes aren't high.

The Show while great does get stale as more of the focus is on DD

Stay in school, kids. Well, these days... stay in home school.

Sooooo.... I wonder if this is still happening?
I couldn't find any new info, but I'm hoping we might see something in the new year.

I'll support whomever gives us the best retro-playability.

MLBtS is not actively pursuing that. If EA does, I'll buy, regardless of how much I despise them.

Baseball is the one sport I felt EA did well.
I've given up on them for everything else.
So I'd welcome back the MVP series with open arms.

MLBtS is a great game between the lines. Its just not the experience I am looking for. And by ditching year-to-year saves, they got even farther away from that.

I'd prefer not to give EA another dime. But if they incorporate baseballs rich history and give me better retro roster creation possibilities, I'd be all in.
