How many times has it happened that you’re playing a game of FIFA in the recent past that the useless game just stops working the way it is supposed to. Realism, Physics, natural; When was the last time we even heard of these keywords used in the gameplay trailers of this game? Very likely way in the past, perhaps before FIFA 14.
I personally have noticed many fucking times that this dumb game just does not work the way a football game is supposed to. No proper collisions, dismembered limbs, players going in absurd routes, braindead defenders giving away fouls. (The last one is actually me) But you get the idea. Since when did we move from a game which is meant to be a football sim and instead what we have is a probability machine making slight gameplay events more or less fun. This authoritarian Laplace Demon that EA has harnessed is proof that reality is a myth. You can just run a game driven by probabilities to suit various outcomes without the player ever knowing.
That is fucking dark. These fascist fucks first with their micrtransactions, and random useless updates, pushing people to just buy their dog shit rewrapped in a new glowing litterbox. This has to stop. We cannot keep buying whatever EA gives us. We cannot and will not accept what they have done to our culture, our media, and our game.
I am grateful to see after years that there are new competitors and games coming up. I personally am really excited to play Rematch.
Please do a good job Sloclap. We are waiting.
