If EA wasn't so stubborn as to not look at anything that other devs do that work and took the opportunity to improve franchise mode and figure out ways that they could monetise it for those that want to pay then the Madden community would be all over franchise mode again. At least in my opinion.

Until then, the negativity around the mode will continue.
Well said, especially about EA being unwilling to mimick what other companies are doing successfully.
As long as they continue to try to do their own version of CFM and presentation in its current direction, it's destined to fail.
They own the freaking ESPN license. Yet they refuse to use it, and I'm almost positive it's for fear of falling well short of what that OTHER game did with it 13 years ago.
I'm not very optimistic anymore...it's become pretty clear their direction isn't what we'd hoped for.
