@teshammutna: That's too much of an excuse, there's a lot of improvements they could make. Something as big as the AI, or as small as say basestealing in MLB The Show for example.
@Setho10: "the answer is to not do a full review of each sports game but an update that just mentions the changes and whether they are positive or negative?" That would be a better way to do things because sports game reviews focus on the new features and give little attention on comparison to the previous year and give it a higher score.
"There's only so much you can change about a video game based on hockey. You can't change the rules." This sentiment towards sports games is always very weird, and it's pretty ironic that sports games lack competition.
This game needs an overhaul but if they didn't do it for the PS5 they aren't going to do it for this gen. Still way to much focus on Diamond Dynasty (I know this is where the money is) and ignoring the rest of the game.
Another question is did they fix the "There's not enough free space in system storage" problem. Too many times you're told to make more space even if you have enough. ex; 5GB download needs more space despite having 50GBs free.
