Deportivo is a Spanish word, not Italian. I.e.: Deportivo La Coruna, Deportivo Alavés, etc...when i see that software featuring italian teams, i always have to think: lets "de portivo" questo gioco!

I miss those days when games had no option but to release the best game they can do, no option to update or fix their games online or even to add DLCs, all companies back then had to release a full game where you get ALL CONTENT with $60 and have a perfectly running game bug-free due to strict QA as there's no going back!! Companies focused only on story, gameplay and true gaming elements.
The era of online updates and DLCs/microtransactions is destroying the gaming industry, no company now has to focus on quality anymore, just focus on release dates and online sh*t regardless of the game itself, online is destroying the industry to the point that Konami had the audacity to release such a product depending only on "future updates"!!
A niche reference, appreciated.I was wrestling the controller so much that I was half-expecting Earl Hebner to show up.
Which one has 5m myopia?

This guy is supposed to be Ibrahima Konate...
Generally speaking that's the trend nowadays but there are still great "new" games with focus on single player experience, story and gameplay and no paid DLC's or microtransactions.I miss those days when games had no option but to release the best game they can do, no option to update or fix their games online or even to add DLCs, all companies back then had to release a full game where you get ALL CONTENT with $60 and have a perfectly running game bug-free due to strict QA as there's no going back!!

A bazillion times this. The player you switch to is almost always on their heels and/or facing the wrong way. By the time they're under control they're redundant as you've switched to the next corpse. Rinse and repeat... Your best form of defence is the game's incompetence in attack, waiting for it to screw your opponent over with an especially snail-like pass or abandonment of the ball.
You're not being very rigorous in how you're arguing for this potted history.
The second bullet point: it's in an interview on an obscure Russian site in 2018 (you can tell from the context of the conversation and the build-up to PES 2019). We have no idea the accuracy of the translation (perhaps a double translation at that). He talks about engine plans in what can only be understood as extremely tentative terms. The next-gen consoles he alludes to – at that point we still had no idea about them, in terms of nomenclature, release year, technical specifications, etc. To take what he says there as indicative of any real plan for next-gen/current-gen PES was always silly, and got sillier with time. I can't believe people still bring this up as though it was some settled intention on the basis of this one source.
Your first bullet point – I think there's been some back and forth about the claim, and similar claims as to who was the "boss" of different games, in this thread already. But the truth of what you've asserted there is not clear to me. Do you have any solid evidence on that front? (And clarified in a manner that isn't "boss".)
The third bullet point is written tendentiously. You take for granted in that stage of your reconstructed history that there was this next-gen version in the works, and reference it casually as though not contestable and based on very weak evidence.
Then how you talk about cross-play ("the leadership changed to Kimura and cross-play became the focus") – we honestly have no idea when cross-play became an earnest ambition, but we can see that mobile was doing well for them well beyond last year, they integrated a new currency cross-platform earlier, and built promotional tie-ins on console to celebrate (i.e. promote) the mobile game even further back.
Notice also how you start with a time indicator ("about the same time last year") and that implicitly structures the rest of what follows, but that's just not plausible. We know, e.g., the Masuda interview (about which obviously there are huge doubts anyway) was in 2018. So even if your claim about change of leadership is true, it doesn't mean that decisions about cross-play or F2P structure had to happen according to your implicit timeframe – could easily have been under Masuda (again, given your leadership history) in, say, 2019.
The last thing is that I'm not sure how these companies run, but I doubt the individual has that much control over direction as is being assumed here anyway. There will be boardroom meetings with various important people and stakeholders, shareholder representatives, etc. It is a decision that will have to have been made in concert anyway.
In short, I think we've got scant evidence to really conclude there was some noble direction of the franchise led by some fallen hero, who was dastardly struck down by the corporate-brownnose, who waded in and changed things up last minute. I also don't know why we need such a narrative. We certainly don't need it to make sense of the direction of the franchise (which has been consistent) and the industry more broadly. We don't need it to make sense of the shoddiness of this product either.
This is one of those horrible features very much taken from recent PESs - the instant you switch to a new player, his first action is to either stop or begin running the wrong way - and it's obviously deliberately programmed this way by Konami to stop the game being too easy. It's makes for such a bad gameplay experience.
Inevitably, Konami have carried forward this cheat into eFootball. Until they ditch the Fox engine, expect the same list of Fox engine cheats that everyone has grown to despise. This is my biggest disappointment about eFootball - seeing some of the worst features of Fox live on.
That video is bob on. Its horrendous. I can't understand how anyone finds anything redeemable in it. its completely unacceptable in 2021 on next generation consoles.YongYea, Mutahar, and now Jim Sterling. This is really a new low for Konami.
It won't be long until other reaction channels (especially M0istCritikal/penguinz0) have their take on this turd. 🤣
I don't disagree with your reservations and conclusion. Yes, both these guys have been 'Directors' and 'Producers' of the games over the past 20 years. Durandil actually picked up evidence that Masuda is credited on a 2020 patent to control a game on a touchscreen... so he's not as completely detached from mobile PES as I had previously thought.
And yes, Masuda did give a mid-2018 interview saying that the new engine would be used to develop the game for the new PS/Xbox, and that PS4 would stay on Fox Engine forever.... but a lot could have happened since mid-2018, and it's unclear how long they've been working on this before shifting focus to cross-platform.
It's just that eFootball is so, so stripped down compared to PES 2021, that there is no way they've spent the past 3 years developing it. Even the ball physics are completely messed up. The bugs, janky transitions, and missing features all point towards a rushed job, and given the fact we KNOW they weren't planning cross-platform from the beginning, it's clear that there was a change in intent, most likely AFTER the Messi teaser reveal.
