Game is not good. They said they'd focus on franchise but clearly ignored it. Fake coordinators still in game, and teams make unrealistical releases and trades. When playing on all madden the defense magically jumps routes still and your players have the iq of a stump. Madden focuses on microtransactions so if you play mut it might be worth it otherwise no need to invest at $60. The fact the mode impacts your play calling is crazy. As a regular purchaser i have no intention to buy madden 24 on release as I've bought it every year for the last 10 years on release and only regret it every year. Madden relies on its content creators to keep the game fresh. If operation sports didn't exist and they didn't have exclusive rights EA would be bankrupt. I waited to leave my review as franchise was a "focus" this year yet got no attention. If madden 24 is an improvement be cautious of a "make or break year" as articles have suggested. EA has not produced a worthy madden since arguably madden 08
