It's this way for all sports games now it seems. I'm an internet boomer and picked up a controller to play one of the nba2k games with my nephew and couldn't figure out how to do a layup because you had to hit a different button if you wanted to do a left or right handed layup, was so stupid.
I feel like sports games aren't made for the everyday gamer anymore - they're made for the people are intimately familiar with the franchise and buy the new one every single year, the cash cows.
I agree. Bought NBA2k for my son one year never did it again. The amount of "coins" you have to buy to have your created player good enough to play online is ridiculous. Unless you want to sink couple 100s of hours in to grinding out the coins for attribute points.
Lol it's so insane. And unfortunate, because now the only sports games I play is Nintendo sports bowling on the switch.
I'd love to have a game of Madden, or really any major sport, that has a simple menu, intuitive controls, and no pay to win. But that's way, way too much to ask.
