In case you didnt hate them enough already. I always wondered why people were paying $80 for an updated roster and jersey physics, or the next newest minor thing they add slowly to keep the game feeling fresh.

They've basically been doing that for years now. Rehash the exact same game, add one or two new features to disguise that fact, then update the rosters. That was pretty much the standard operating procedure 20 years ago.

yeah there are older madden games with features they removed in later ones, then put back in this one. same with nba 2k. last madden game i bought was 09 i think. the one with favre on the cover. last nba 2k game i bought was 12 or 13. the one with durant and two other players or something.

Same! I still pop it in and play it at the start of every season

The madden mobile game is more fun than any madden I have played in years too, which is weird

I don't see the big issue. Are they supposed to redo all the stadiums every year? It's not like the teams build new stadiums every year.

Anyone who played the games knew that. You don't need to see official internal documents or evidence of "mistakes" to be able to explicitly see the sheer number of reused assets, mechanics, and general similarities between any given two concurrent games in the series.

It's part of why players have been saying they'd rather just have them release a new game every 5 years or so and have it so that players can automatically update rosters online. Which EA was never going to agree to because they can't monetize that as much and double dip on sales.

I dont see why the nfl keeps signing new contracts with just EA. Like dont they realize how much more money theyd make if they could have several companies making nfl games? 2K, blitz, and madden would make way more money than just madden

Im pretty sure that rosters update live in NHL after trades every year. Anyways, Im glad I never really bought into these games. Pay $80 for different cover art. I would by Hitz and Blitz games, however. Looked into those ones on eBay recently.
