If they have an ump like Bob Davidson...

I will have balks turned off.

Eat that, Balkin' Bob!

I just want the game to be fun again. If you want "sim" go play real baseball.

I hope they archive and save to youtube, because twitch only archives for 2 weeks, YouTube is forever.

I keep seeing people say they look forward to the umpire personality traits, but i could've sworn these were already said to be in the game last year?

And it didn't really work all that well, the strike zone felt different from pitch to pitch.

Is it just improved this year? Because i don't think it's brand new.

Nothing wrong with wanting "sim", The game is considered a baseball sim after all. But Sony also needs to strike a balance with customers. And the wide range of options in the game does that. We just need to see more about RTTS to judge whether the options are sufficient for all types of players.

And especially in regards to hitting, we all know somebody who really does prefer that arcade style over sim, and wants to bat .450 with 85 home runs with their RttS player. The perks and ShowTime may assist them in getting the game play experience they want.

And considering we haven't even seen it live yet, who knows? Even us sim-heads here on OS may still appreciate the Perks and ShowTime? Maybe they would be more fun to use than we think?
At first glance, you may think ShowTime is a bit gimmicky/arcade, but it actually adds to the experience (especially RTTS) IMO. It wasn't overdone in anyway.

Errrruhm, I meant as I watched the video and mimicked the actions with my Dualshock 4.
