Re: I fell in love all over again...

I hadnt played MLBTS since shortly after the World Series, after the horrid season my Reds had, I was basically burnt out on anything baseball, so I shelved the game and started playing NBA2k16. After the 1st of the year I always get that baseball itch with pitchers/catchers reporting in a month and a half, so I decided to finish my roster edits and get going in my franchise.

This was the 1st year I hadnt gotten a franchise started at all, because of being so OCD about ratings and stats, which led to this issue,lol, as I have to have rotations/lineups for all MLB and MILB correct or I lose interest. Plus I did some rerates to the Realism roster and since it took them a while to finish their great roster, also played into my late start, along with me just not feeling good due to health I dont play as many games as I use to, because some days pain and all the pills I take make concentrating to play The Show impossible practically.

So a few days ago I got started and been having a lot of fun. Got a ways to go before I get to Opening Day, as anohter thing Im OCD about is playing all games and that counts Spring Training. Probably wont be getting MLB16 due to money issues, and the fact that I didnt play 15 all that much I might as well ge my use out of it 1st.

Plus there is several little things that the devs are going to need to do anyway for me to spend the money even if I have it to spend, as while I respect that fact that these devs put out a good game each year, bu not going overboard on adding stuff just to say they added a bunc of new stuff like NBA2k devs do which leads to a lot of issues going unfixed, I do think MLBTS devs need to do a few extra things like MLB schedule not rotating eahc year for IL play, and a joke for a draft, so if this stuff isnt worked on I wont buy the game no matter what. Plus the glitches in stats which has been there for ever like hitters showing up in inning pitch and position players up for CY Young, this stuff shouldnt still be a issue after all these years but it is. And the older I get the less I want to waste money just to see the same issues year after year. Thats not to knock MLBTS devs at all, as they are the best game devs around, and have always bee honest people, unlike what you get with NBA2k's devs, as well as other devs from other games, so I do have a ton of respect for The Show devs, because of their honesty, but I just cant anylonge with money being tight continue buying the same issues each year, even whent he overall game is still very good.
