Just a small thing about the database. That's what happen when you're in same road as EA.
But one thing is entirerly their fault. Remember one thing : they will keep edit mode for sure to complete it...
And we talked about the lost of some Nations in Fifa? Well just one thing :
Edit: Important > there's NT but they aren't annouced on their website... (The rest of the post don't talk about it but licence in general)

There's NO national teams on PES. So you can forgot about Haaland in game, or plenty of Bundesliga interesting players and big leagues too.
Corrected > Nations are present : not on the list only.... Dumb as always

-They made a deal with AFC Nations, so perhaps an update with only Asian Nations licenced... But i don't believe so.
-There's only 5 licenced Serie A teams (partners). But what's funny : all Serie B is licenced.
-MLS present, but with fakes teams, the only good thing. It's not enough for the sacrifice of CSL, Liga Aguila, and (from their OWN choice) Nations and Others Europe, with 3 german teams exceptions.
I'm sick of those licences, exclusive thing. You can denies it's played A LOT in the balance of PES sold. If both games gotted Bundes... But also PL and Liga 1 and 2 with kits, the story would have been different. I don't know how much people in more would have buyed PES since the 2015, but a lot. I can even goes far in the time but let's stay in the current history that conducted PES to became that shitty stuff with an unacceptable database.
I'm waiting so much to get a game without those issue... I don't think Nations will be available again. Anymore.
So, Fifa to me already won the war they created first. It's not Fifa devs fault, they're not responsible, but that's the way EA kills their opponent and got their monopoly.
The only way, is a complete disappears of PES and an acceptable Fifa for PES gamer (FTM, it's not too much my case. I still need the two game).
The thing is : they won the war on PS360 thanks to their gameplay + licences. But not on PS4-PC.
So, with only them on the market and all their power they will got all licences and no problems anymore... Well they think. Because look at Liga Colombiana : they aren't in ANY games. Any. And some Nations could be on FIFA, but they disappeared. And i don't get why there isn't a simple editing mode, but plenty of thing we don't give a damn.
You can't even change height or weight of a player, only stats. neither the rest. Preset face or not. It's unbelievable, i don't get it. Same for the team, you can't even change the name. Is that too difficult to create a system? Yes, they add tons of stuffs but one very important things they don't care. I'm a Juventus fan, and don't even want to take them because of it, even for a game as i found it too stupid when i see the difference in authenticity regarding licenced teams. Sincerely.
That's all i wanted to say. It's about licences, and the way to resolve it via editing, so can't talk about it without mentioning and talking about EA and Fifa in the post. As i also considers it will be the last remaining unfortunately.
Sad. Very sad. Another victim to me on the long term, as dumb Konami is right, the situation would have been VERY VERY different if exclusivity was forgiven in sports game for a matter of equity by i don't know... The players and teams association.
And i don't want to hear that there's too much "if". It's so obvious than no one can denies it.
EDIT2/ There's still nations, but removed all nations who were fakes (+- 8 in Africa, 12-14 in Asia, 4 in America etc.). But the good side is they keeped all the EURO nations.
