Spot on.
, and proper football games, that are based on the simulation of the sport and not on casino simulation.
Do you know if UFL going to have proper offline modes? The only bits I've read about it say it's going to be online focused. A shame really if that's the case, as would have liked another football game to come through and shake things up.
Every country should do like Belgium and forbid loot boxes being sold for real money. Only when that happens maybe gaming returns to what it once was. And then maybe we have onea GTA game for console generation
I just can't imagine how anyone would want to spend that kind of money for what's essentially just some different faces. He's clearly happy to do that though, which is his choice. Just doesn't make sense to me. He could probably use that grand he saves on eFootball 22 to get himself scanned into the game.
That's a bit contorted, as a point. The problem for a gambling addict isn't that they haven't realised it's like a lottery, that it's luck-based. Try pointing that out to those huddled over FOBTs next time you pass by them! Sure, children may not have grasped how these things work, but adult gambling addicts know. Just as alcoholics know what alcohol does to them and how they'll feel once the alcohol begins to leave their system.
Yes, there should (at least) be limits, if we are happy at all to accept gambling still being in the games (and games with low age ratings too). The season pass style of payment is at least a one-time thing for that "season", yeah. But depending on the pass, it can be scummy in other ways: essentially paywalling lots of content or making it available only through unreasonable amounts of grinding. It bifurcates the playerbase into those who can afford and who can't, and in some games the cosmetic rewards become a means of instilling FOMO and driving further sales (there's a reason the Fortnite-related "Default!" became a genuine playground insult).
I'm not sure. Maybe some F2P games advertise/sell battle passes in advance, which you could say is kind similar? It's definitely a massive cheek though, what Konami are doing here.
Also the fact that the project lead had no idea what manual passing was and thought it was a strange request, on his Twitter Q&A lol.
I have seen a few of his videos but I never got the same impression of him.
Please do not even download the free edition just to try it and then uninstall 2 hours later, Konami will find a way to add it to their +1 downloads count and twist it how the game is so popular. Completely ignore it download wise and let it die and make sure Konami suffers. They deserve the worst.
Look at the god damn screen on steam, not even 1 kilobyte of shadow, and the grass, these are PES 2010 PS2/PS3 graphics that are now finally available on most mobile phones.
That poor ball boy bringing the ball to the Gk is literally the only new thing. And everything else is 50 times worse than 19/20/21 PES.
And look at that horrible blur trying to hide the hideous grass and color palette.
That doesn't sound very encouraging! Manual passing is essential for me personally.
Could be lost in translation. But, then, again it's Konami.
I wonder how are they able to sell these games in arabian and other muslim countries.Every country should do like Belgium and forbid loot boxes being sold for real money. Only when that happens maybe gaming returns to what it once was. And then maybe we have onea GTA game for console generation
Thanks for that! Had no idea incorporating manual passing would be such an issue. It's the gameplay element that they get spot on in PES, so fair play to Konami on that one.

Just saying it’s the only hope of a decent football game (geared towards genuine football people). F2P and online focus doesn’t necessarily mean bad, it’s just the current example of that model does it very badly.

They’ll think they can get away with it because lots of people bought the season update last year for $45. It’s disgusting but I bet my club players will buy it.unreal© !!
Sadly they won’t last long with Jim, Bob and Mathew upfront from Bolton playing against Ronaldo, Messi and Maradona.
Ah, fair enough! Will be good to see what they come up with on UFL. I'm still waiting for a solid online football game experience, so happy to try something else if they nail it.
It’s not like people are negative for negative sake and no reason. There’s plenty of red flags that bring light to historical issues. When you start seeing similar patterns in something that brought previous bad results, I think it’s fair to be concerned it’s heading to a similar undesirable outcome.
