While I selfishly wish Franchise would be loaded with improvements each year and DD and that all these side modes would die a quick and dramatic death (
), I am happy with the way franchise is moving forward.
Seriously, the improved stat tracking was always going to be the "big ticket" upgrade, so add in the fact that they have added what seems to be a well thought-out morale system along with the various tweaks and improvements to multiple aspects of the logic, management, commentary, and UI and I have no complaints.
Don't get me wrong, I have a laundry list of things I still want (seriously...I don't think it's realistically possible to satisfy my wishlist completely), but I am happy with how 16's franchise is shaping up.
