When I read this news this week, my immediate reaction was the classic Michael Scott meme… I found myself going “Nope, don’t like that…” after reading every sentence, with a sinking feeling in my chest.

The number 1 thing I was looking forward to in this game, was actual, real-life rosters for the first time ever in a college football game. I knew there’d probably be some kids who would, for one reason or another, protest/refuse to be in the game. But I figured for those few, no big deal, just edit/create their player as we’ve always been able to do… But for that ability to actually be TAKEN AWAY from us. It’s extremely disheartening at best, and at worst, makes me question whether or not to buy the game at all.

Definitely gonna be a wait and see approach for me now. Who knows, this may be a non-issue, and only a very select few no-name players on smaller schools will opt-out. But if there are significant players missing on every major team, that’s gonna make it REALLY hard for me to support this game from the get-go.
