What would prevent you from buying Madden 19?

[Toupal]

Every year Madden sees the same cycle, usually ending in its' release at the end of August before the much anticipated NFL season kicks off.

Typically a few months before that, EA will start releasing information and new additions in the game to get fans pumped.

And even preceding that are fans making their wishlist and holding out for the "next big thing"...

This year for Madden 18, it was a little different with things like:

1. The addition of the much anticipated Frostbite Engine

2. The huge emphasis on not showing any game play until a few weeks prior

3. No demo (nothing new)

4. The releasing of information really close to the release

5. The new "linear story" of Longshot

The reason for these is left unknown, yet in the end we were given Madden 18.

Since the release of Madden, EA has received a ton of criticism, and even petitions for them to lose their license for certain titles, and even boycott the company entirely.

With all of the event that have taken place and having hands on experience with Madden 18, my questions are:

What would prevent you from purchasing Madden 19?

or

What would it take for you to purchase Madden 19?

I’m really nervous we might go the way of 2ks MyLeague Online.

“Streamlined” Franchise mode.

And... sigh... Keepers.

Pushes the Fantasy Football aspect that MUT follows.

It’s my greatest fear.

It’s sad to say, but the question for me is: what won’t keep me from buying M19?

M18 is a good game but a terrible football game. I’m tired of this weird blend of animation/physics based football, something that can be reworked with a longer development cycle. That cycle will never come because of the licensing agreement.

I might buy Madden 18 if they worked Superstar back into the mix, and I’m talking ‘09, ‘10 Superstar. But otherwise, I’m not looking forward to Madden 19 unless the game receives rave reviews from those who actually play the game for fun instead of those paid to play it.

A non updated CFM. If we get the same thing as this year I won't buy the game.

I get my fill off of a few days redboxing. I really don’t see myself getting madden 19 unless I can get it for half price or less and the NFL announces the end of the exclusive.

In other words, not likely.

Not much really. While most decry the developers' "lack of" and "why didn't they just" or some other voice of frustration, my value judgement rests more on what they get right vs what they get wrong.

I enjoy the game, but don't play it all that often, and only play solo CFM. So if there was one thing that ripped me away from the 'buy now' button next fall, it would be an unforseeable, patent disregard for my style of gaming. Like, removing CFM altogether sort of disregard...

Accept for me actually playing the game a whole lot, this is my take exactly.
