Ignoring the fact that MaxFB is a terrible game aside from the customization, you have a very good point.

I think the biggest issue is the animations. They suck. He's using keyframing, no mo-cap. He should invest in at least a simple mo-cap system like opti-track (it's only like 6 grand). It would do wonders for his game.

That said, the game was actually built to be a text-based game, then a game focusing on strategy. The graphical parts were thrown in later for wider commercialization.

Yeah, but in my opinion even the non-graphical stuff isn't too good. I do agree that in the current state no graphics at all would be better than what he has. I do like the play creator though.

I've never heard of this game, so I went to Youtube to see more.

You're correct, that game looked horrible. I only needed to see one scene; the QB "ice skated" right thru his RB to get under center. That was enough for me.

punctuation is so overrated

Dont too much care for the "team your controlling always being on the bottom". That's fine for Defense but for Offense I want to see the field ahead...not behind me. Other than that; it's a fresh niche and could be what some of us are looking for from a Football game.

So wait, this game is always in split-screen?
