It just seems like every year it gets worse and worse. Haven't enjoyed playing since nhl 19 and this years release has completely ruined the enjoyable player experience. Hits have become useless without a hipcheck. AI takes more penalties than I do, and it seems like the game controls my player more than I do. Just miss being able to have legs with players that can actually skate and use their edges. Any wrong input (which happens often due to a fast paced game with such complex controls) is completely detrimental to any in game play if you play against the computer. Lost the fun and honestly I find myself frustrated and quitting mid game even when I am winning sometimes. Just sad to lose the fun we used to have from the series.
