@@yardleymendez1133 It's not a drug but it's definitely a serious addiction. Especially for people who spend money on the game. It can be classified as a gambling addiction.
Maybe everyone should grow up its a frickin game and people get mad so easily. Nep you yourself are becoming an older gamer now and i am even older and all i see is so many getting wound up and moaning, its easy stop playing it until it becomes better or move away from ea altogether.
cant believe these guys buy the game every year, think thats the funniest bit, feeding one of the most predatory gaming companies in history, then complaining they get violated, EVERY SINGLE YEAR
@rumdore To be fair I'm guilty of it as well. I just try to make the best of it even when the game is in the worst state since I started playing it in FIFA 15.
The gameplay is a$$ and they just keep us attached to it by releasing promos...and main thing "gambling" .... c'mon y'all gotta agree its more of gambling than football at this point
The promos are so bad, not 1 good SBC have been out, literally nothing to grind for, and on top of that, the gameplay Trading is the funniest part of this game and it's not even close
I used to make fun of people who played sports games in single player and at this point I get it… there’s no other polished game on the market… and I want to play futbol. EA is disgusting
I always tell my homies how much it sucks not having another futbol game. Futbol was my life since I was a child. Oh well tho lmao bo6 has been an amazing experience 😂😭
@@unukalhai295problem is those game modes have annoying glitches. At some point every fifa I play some career mode and I almost always run into a glitch from the previous year. They hardly fix things in those single player game modes it’s kinda annoying.
Tried COD yesterday and it was a whole different experience. Trying to get kills toward a better attachment is actually rewarding making some of my favorite guns better. I opened my Div 2 Rivals rewards today and I got 0 walkouts. Game's definitely killing itself and I don't see EA fixing it
This is why ive stopped playing this game. Content is dead, gameplay is inconsistent, evolutions are completely screwed. This conpany needs competition.
I packed TOTY Hansen last year and sold her for 7.5m, was my biggest W in my 20 years of playing the game. As amazing as it was, it actually was the beginning of the end for me, after that, I bought my dream team, and even that couldn’t save me from this game. I quit shortly after and now just watch you guys talk about the game. The story is, even if you have the best team, if the game is awful, it’s not worth your time.
The rewards suck regardless, Ea just gave the illusion they were giving out better rewards but all they did was nerf the hell out of the “better rewards” it’s basic all just fodder packs
I started a few weeks late cause holiday so tryna win 3 outta 5 to qualify for champs against icons is hard but the gameplay annoyed me so much I just sold the game lol
rewards for div 3 are horrible, you get 2 packs with 75+ and you basically get all low rated fodder 2 84+ picks mega pack and totw this game is a joke all around, gameplay worst than ever
I couldn't care less about those rant videos, if nepenthez or any other youtuber is serious about wanting to actually change things then they need to stop playing and uploading anything related to this game. If you're not ready to do that then don't even bother uploading rants because ea showed over the years that they couldn't care less about them.
Rant videos make them money unfortunately, they don't really give a shit.. If they cared about making a change they would have stopped playing the game
All of you guys are right. Words are just words at the end of the day. Although, I think everyone collectively needs to stop playing for there to be change. The entire community + content creators need to be part of the movement.
EA are in a bad spot with this one. Most of the time people are angry at the game but even angry they will still play it. This time though people are just tired of it, apathetic to the entire franchise. EA kept pushing and pushing to see how much they could get away with and I think we've finally found the point. Picked up Black Ops 6 2 weeks ago and haven't looked back
as an ex elite3/2 player from way back when, leave the fifa before the fifa leaves you - trust me, you wont miss it play 5s or watch your local non-league team if you crave football these are the only vids i watch from nick, to keep up with the state of what ea is doing
I miss the days when everyone would rush to the store to get those mental limited packs where there were only 10,000 for the community to open, that’s when the game was peak in the store, none of this 10 2000 fc point cards in store nonsense…
You can’t tell me they’re not trying to kill this game, anyone with any sense is not playing it nevermind buying fifa points. I do know there’s a lot of you out there with a literal addiction and I wish you well
Fifa 20 was peak menus, promo cards weren’t insane but at least you could pack them. We had big grindable SBCs like moments Sané, decent upgrades, I probably spent more time in the menus than in gameplay.
Fifa wont change until people stop playing UT, that means content creators have to stop first. A huge boycott is the only way but then creators can say its rubbish as much as they want, they still make videos and play all day everyday
This game really really feels different. Every year since fifa 18 I had the motivation to go through everything just to grind until the end of the cycle. We had great games on the other hand as well those years but I still got stuck with FIFA. Not this year for fr. COD is back and the only time im spending time on EA FC is Pro clubs. Life's better at least
The Inaki Williams SBC next to the crafting upgrade is the perfect example of EA's nonsense SBCs. 150k SBC that has the same pace, same shooting, same physical and +1 passing as the FREE 84 evo at launch, and the SBC doesn't even have the power shot+ the free evo does! So you're gaining literally almost nothing and losing powershot+ for 150k. Joke.
I think all of our brains are rotted into expecting TOTY level content every promo now, I looked through last years SBCs and they all were very mid until Jan/Feb
If EA could just understand that when a defender tackles a player then them shoving my defender over without touching the ball is a foul. We would be in a better mood 😂
that tweet about the fifa cycle was true but 1. it started with new gen and 2. most people haven’t liked gameplay since day ONE this year and they still patched it into the ground
idk why nick keeps having to say he’s trying not to be negative or to complain- the game sucks! being negative and having complaints is inevitable when you see this game being destroyed. by far the earliest I’ve felt like not playing or grinding for anything. don’t wanna try evos because the gameplay sucks, upgrades and rewards are horrible so most players are unobtainable, and there’s no exciting or meaningful menu content!
Every year they give you less and less in the hope you would spend more and more. It's all about making more money for EA. Also, everybody is talking about inconsistent gameplay, without acknowledging DDA. They cannot fix inconsistent gameplay because it would mean removing DDA and making this game purely skill based. Leading to less spending. And that's the main problem. Every improvement they could make to the QoL of the players will lead to less spending. Their main focus is making the game just good enough so that players will buy it and then making it bad enough that you will always feel like things could be better, ''why not buy some packs to upgrade your team''. Make no mistake about it. How the game is now, is exactly how EA wants it to be. The way your feeling right now is exactly the way EA wants you to feel when playing this game.
As I read through the comments. I do not freaking care about EAFC, but for now it is the best futbol game out there and we are forced to play it for the love of the sport. Many will say play irl, who said people who play irl are not gaming? Football lovers are forced to be stuck in EAFC unless they decide to not play football virtually at all. It is the best game of football right now and they take advantage of it on us. Also the cheaters. I am annoyed to this. The cheaters has invaded this game not only on PC. EA could use this in their favour to say game is good, but cheaters make it look bad, as cheaters in this game visually are nearly impossible to spot. Only if they are dumb showing off their cheats. Everything together make this game a lot worst than it should be, but def not an excuse for what EA does!
It's honestly very simple. They're absolutely terrified of doing anything that can potentially impact pack sales. I've said this many times but this is why who owns something is so critical. When something is owned by people that just want money and nothing else the quality of the product becomes a race to the bottom. Buying something needs to start including shares of the company that produce the product. The only way this situation improves is if the people that own the game are the ones that play it.
For the casual player, the game is fine. For streamers and content creators, it’s a struggle to make new content. It’s so bad for them, now they have to make content based on other creators content. Lololol. Nep is the man.
I have no way to engage in promo content outside of the store. If I was to open every pack currently displayed in the promo section of my store, it would cost me £600 in FC points. They don't want you to engage with the game outside of the store
A menu grind shouldn't even be a concept. How dead does a game have to be for people to want to earn rewards from the menu's rather than gameplay 😂 I didn't buy the game this year and this is one of the reasons. I got sick of having to do sbcs to keep my club competitive.
i guess this game has just one purpose: using psychological tricks to make players feel a certain way, to make them spent more money in game. maybe they did to much this time, but enough people out there are still buying those packs. and by now i'm almost convinced, that there are mechanics integrated into the gameplay, to make you lose your mind. purposefully.
We all watched the gameplay trailers/reveal for FC 25 in the summer. We were all aware of how trash the game was going to be. What changed? We knew this was going to happen. Hopefully this is the last straw for people, me included. We must not buy FC 26 at all costs.
Only thing wrong with the Don Dior tweet is FC broke the chain on saying “last years was better” as last years was equally worse depending on what game modes you played
I have experienced 8 years of UT with usually playing until July. But i have stopped chasing rewards and games at the start of november. For me, auto team press is horrible, basically all players can auto press with no skills or partice. Games volume is too heavy for rivals, market is quickly dead and useless rush mode. I am really sad for someone who started playing this mode this year.
i enjoyed fifa 23 and the nightmare started in fc24 it was a horrible experience and it felt so much how EA moved the probability to get some cards and those "errors" were part of the day after day when the content time arrives to see if EA made another mistake on purpose, but not only that the SBC was really bab i remember asking months if a defender was better than gold VVD, then the legues sbc arrived and started the ludopathy and it became worst when we got the trading 85 - 89 cards to get more gold and use them in pick, and then let the cicle run, it was the worst and most gambling game i have ever played even i play some gacha games, i am glad i quit the game but sad i spended money on FC25
I appreciate what Nep is saying about Evo’s, I assume some of the +2s to OVR are due to the weighting of stats against their effect on an OVR Calc…. So if there are only 4 stat elements to PHY, say a +8 on 2 will effect the OVR due to weighting ….. what doesn’t make sense is getting a +2 based zero stat increases…… so either says to me that the OVR card rating is entirely separate to the stat totals themselves, or any change to any stats is nothing more than a graphical enhancement in the attributes page and doesn’t make a blind bit of difference to the player in game ….. either way it’s dodgey AF…..!!!
I literally don’t play the game anymore after finishing Varane and going from Div 3 to 5 for the new season made no sense to me why did I get relegated twice????
Stat limits are so whack idk why ea are scared to give a boost to lower rated cards it’s not like mbappe is suddenly going to be worthless if we can make some decent cards. 91 Mbappe hangs with some of the highest rated cards at the end of last year, an evo for the people not spending hundreds isnt going to change anything for the lucky people who pull these high rated cards. They just want to keep people feeling like they need to open the wallet to compete.
Played FIFA religiously from 17 to 23. Last year I was one of the Christmas noobs and this year I'll be skipping as a whole. I haven't seen a single positive since release, no chance I go back to the pile of bs.
I quitted FC24 last year on May. Decided to try FC25 (Div 1) and, I'm quitting this garbage today. No point buying points/pack - pack weight are scam! Save your money before too late. There is no point if you have meta players or buying players if DDA hit you hard 80-90% you will lose. Mbappe will be like 50 pace. Then what? Rage? RIP controller? Just leave! Save time and money. Play other game makes you happy. We all being played and mocked by this simulator. I hope you all hear well and consider this. Good luck!
What’s really showing how shit this game is, is when you compare the community’s view of the game this year compared to last year. There was actually some mixed reviews last year, however this year everyone, yes EVERYONE, is just in agreement that the game is horrible
I think EA is trying to unalive the game for the OG community so they can keep all the kids on it to breed a new generation of Gen z content creators that will glaze the game.
This game has more problems than any other game in history. Cutscenes: random Goalkeeper in the beginning of every cutscene Names on the back of the jerseys in the stadium are random asf Every 2 games you cant see the opponent team Menu: worst menu ever Menu grind impossible because everything is so fcking slow/down Content:Boring cards,Centourions pack, expensive icon packs,ballon dor upgrade, crafting upgrade,Boring copy paste promos,missing icon swaps 🥲 Rewards: Stadium tifo for winnig 500 games😂🤡same boring trophys like the last 100 years for scoring 1000 goals,2nd season pass Gameplay:slow,boring, horrible.... I dont even have to begin Worst fifa ever..These are only some out of hundred problems including career mode,clubs and literally the whole game. How can u even release this game without being ashamed. Clean since 1 week...best week in rhe last 2 months Sorry for my bad English ✌️
I haven’t complained yet bc the issues are so obvious and all the good creators have made sure to talk about it. But yesterday was BAD, servers were so laggy + the slow gameplay was even worse, but biggest problem is third week in a row I got nothing from div3 rewards…. Demoralizing. How am I supposed to so sbcs? When gameplay was bad, they usually at least made the menu grind fun, but now both are terrible, what are they thinking?
Played about 4-6 weeks of champs/rivals/SB's/Rush objs ect, progressively got worse and worse gameplay. Some weeks conceding 0 goals in 15 games that did not come from me tackling a attacker and it bouncing back to someone in a better position or a 30-40 yard finesse shot that my keeper parrys into the path of someone else (i moved keeper for the finesse shot). Since Cod came out i have not played a single game on any mode. Game needs to be stripped back and be more MANUAL. AI defending has ruined the game by closing the skill gap... Its wrong you can have more trouble vs a poor player who controls 1 outfield player (CM/CDM) and just abuses RB press than if you was to play a good player who manually high presses you. Game rewards the wrong people.
It's so funny watching everybody go through the exact same process whilst doing that Ballon D'or SBC 🤣 It goes: 1. Oh that's pretty good actually 2. Wait what? 3. Oh 4. Ok I guess an 83 squad isn't horrible 5. Erm... 6. Yeah fuck that 7. Leaves the SBC without submitting it
I quit so early this year because of the gameplay difference between PC and console, EA don't even give a shit of optimizing the game, all they do is figure out how to make you spend more money on FP but just don't give a shit if you are able to play it properly or not.
Legitimately, there is not enough time to truly enjoy this game... The gameplay is not worth it and all the other intricate things that is needed to upgrade your team takes too much time. Which is why I dropped the game before the month mark this year and may just wait until the summer again to grind and have fun without all the stress involved
The issue with eafc 25 at the moment is rivals. Where good players stay in low divisions where they should be higher division. Spoil the fun for low rated players.
the thing that piss me off the most is the to many squads that are 81 82 83 so its cost lots of players for an 84 rating without a palystyle plus or if they gave one its like chip shoot or travela , so disappointing

If I was to open every pack currently displayed in the promo section of my store, it would cost me £600 in FC points. They don't want you to engage with the game outside of the store
A menu grind shouldn't even be a concept. How dead does a game have to be for people to want to earn rewards from the menu's rather than gameplay 😂 I didn't buy the game this year and this is one of the reasons. I got sick of having to do sbcs to keep my club competitive.
Someone needed to say it
i guess this game has just one purpose: using psychological tricks to make players feel a certain way, to make them spent more money in game. maybe they did to much this time, but enough people out there are still buying those packs. and by now i'm almost convinced, that there are mechanics integrated into the gameplay, to make you lose your mind. purposefully.
We all watched the gameplay trailers/reveal for FC 25 in the summer. We were all aware of how trash the game was going to be. What changed? We knew this was going to happen. Hopefully this is the last straw for people, me included. We must not buy FC 26 at all costs.
2 weeks clean, playing some good single player games, touching the grass, waiting for stalker 2, life is good!
I just hope they do something about it man. Don't wanna see this game just die completely
Come on bro. It's EA. They ain't doing shit.
Its dead already. Nobody I mean nobody likes this game.
Only thing wrong with the Don Dior tweet is FC broke the chain on saying “last years was better” as last years was equally worse depending on what game modes you played
Loving your contents Nick! Greetings from Italy
I have experienced 8 years of UT with usually playing until July. But i have stopped chasing rewards and games at the start of november. For me, auto team press is horrible, basically all players can auto press with no skills or partice. Games volume is too heavy for rivals, market is quickly dead and useless rush mode. I am really sad for someone who started playing this mode this year.
i enjoyed fifa 23 and the nightmare started in fc24 it was a horrible experience and it felt so much how EA moved the probability to get some cards and those "errors" were part of the day after day when the content time arrives to see if EA made another mistake on purpose, but not only that the SBC was really bab i remember asking months if a defender was better than gold VVD, then the legues sbc arrived and started the ludopathy and it became worst when we got the trading 85 - 89 cards to get more gold and use them in pick, and then let the cicle run, it was the worst and most gambling game i have ever played even i play some gacha games, i am glad i quit the game but sad i spended money on FC25
I appreciate what Nep is saying about Evo’s, I assume some of the +2s to OVR are due to the weighting of stats against their effect on an OVR Calc…. So if there are only 4 stat elements to PHY, say a +8 on 2 will effect the OVR due to weighting ….. what doesn’t make sense is getting a +2 based zero stat increases…… so either says to me that the OVR card rating is entirely separate to the stat totals themselves, or any change to any stats is nothing more than a graphical enhancement in the attributes page and doesn’t make a blind bit of difference to the player in game ….. either way it’s dodgey AF…..!!!
That's so funny. 81+ squad that needs 83 and 84s 🤣🤣🤣
The anger i feel when i play this game is so fckn intense, its insane how bad this game is and zero skill needed… happy we have cod bo6.
I literally burned my 100 euros when I bought this game. I played it for 10 days, I stopped playing even before the first weekend league.
Don't buy it next year bro. Spend your cash on something that you enjoy. This trash has got to go
@@oakabielb5406 Yeah no way I'm buying it again after I literally just wasted my money this year on a game I don't plan to even touch anymore.
This game is beyond insufferable. I just happily throw any game now that EA decides to shaft me in a draw situation, not worth the hassle
skipped this year for other games, brother I haven't raged, pumped more blood and stress... enjoying life rn
Didn’t play fifa for weeks but then I came back and I lost all my sanity already
Still on 24 this made my day 😂😂😂
I literally don’t play the game anymore after finishing Varane and going from Div 3 to 5 for the new season made no sense to me why did I get relegated twice????
Bro, I can't even use team sheets in offline mode. Either cant swap players around or it just crashes. This is definitely the worst ever...
3 weeks clean feeling amazing
Didn’t get rival rewards or weekend league this week and never felt better
I love how EA just can’t listen to a single thing the community says. Never have and I don’t think they ever will. Peace.
26 seconds ago is crazy still
Stat limits are so whack idk why ea are scared to give a boost to lower rated cards it’s not like mbappe is suddenly going to be worthless if we can make some decent cards. 91 Mbappe hangs with some of the highest rated cards at the end of last year, an evo for the people not spending hundreds isnt going to change anything for the lucky people who pull these high rated cards. They just want to keep people feeling like they need to open the wallet to compete.
Two months of no playing. Life is peaceful.
Played FIFA religiously from 17 to 23. Last year I was one of the Christmas noobs and this year I'll be skipping as a whole. I haven't seen a single positive since release, no chance I go back to the pile of bs.
I quitted FC24 last year on May. Decided to try FC25 (Div 1) and, I'm quitting this garbage today.
No point buying points/pack - pack weight are scam! Save your money before too late.
There is no point if you have meta players or buying players if DDA hit you hard 80-90% you will lose. Mbappe will be like 50 pace. Then what? Rage? RIP controller? Just leave! Save time and money. Play other game makes you happy.
We all being played and mocked by this simulator. I hope you all hear well and consider this. Good luck!
To hell with EA
Surprised neps title wasn't " The way EA are destroying this game is INSANE!"
What’s really showing how shit this game is, is when you compare the community’s view of the game this year compared to last year. There was actually some mixed reviews last year, however this year everyone, yes EVERYONE, is just in agreement that the game is horrible
I think EA is trying to unalive the game for the OG community so they can keep all the kids on it to breed a new generation of Gen z content creators that will glaze the game.
Nick, you are the GOAT. Truly. You always telling us how it is. I respect the shit outta you and appreciate your truth and consistent content.
This game has more problems than any other game in history.
Cutscenes: random Goalkeeper in the beginning of every cutscene
Names on the back of the jerseys in the stadium are random asf
Every 2 games you cant see the opponent team
Menu: worst menu ever
Menu grind impossible because everything is so fcking slow/down
Content:Boring cards,Centourions pack, expensive icon packs,ballon dor upgrade, crafting upgrade,Boring copy paste promos,missing icon swaps 🥲
Rewards: Stadium tifo for winnig 500 games😂🤡same boring trophys like the last 100 years for scoring 1000 goals,2nd season pass
Gameplay:slow,boring, horrible.... I dont even have to begin
Worst fifa ever..These are only some out of hundred problems including career mode,clubs and literally the whole game.
How can u even release this game without being ashamed.
Clean since 1 week...best week in rhe last 2 months
Sorry for my bad English ✌️
I haven’t complained yet bc the issues are so obvious and all the good creators have made sure to talk about it. But yesterday was BAD, servers were so laggy + the slow gameplay was even worse, but biggest problem is third week in a row I got nothing from div3 rewards…. Demoralizing. How am I supposed to so sbcs? When gameplay was bad, they usually at least made the menu grind fun, but now both are terrible, what are they thinking?
Played about 4-6 weeks of champs/rivals/SB's/Rush objs ect, progressively got worse and worse gameplay. Some weeks conceding 0 goals in 15 games that did not come from me tackling a attacker and it bouncing back to someone in a better position or a 30-40 yard finesse shot that my keeper parrys into the path of someone else (i moved keeper for the finesse shot). Since Cod came out i have not played a single game on any mode.
Game needs to be stripped back and be more MANUAL. AI defending has ruined the game by closing the skill gap... Its wrong you can have more trouble vs a poor player who controls 1 outfield player (CM/CDM) and just abuses RB press than if you was to play a good player who manually high presses you. Game rewards the wrong people.
It's so funny watching everybody go through the exact same process whilst doing that Ballon D'or SBC 🤣
It goes:
1. Oh that's pretty good actually
2. Wait what?
3. Oh
4. Ok I guess an 83 squad isn't horrible
5. Erm...
6. Yeah fuck that
7. Leaves the SBC without submitting it
I think EA is genuinely dumb and thought 9 81 rated players would be enough for an 81 squad
Been pifa clean since toty from last year
I quit so early this year because of the gameplay difference between PC and console, EA don't even give a shit of optimizing the game, all they do is figure out how to make you spend more money on FP but just don't give a shit if you are able to play it properly or not.
Ea makes the menu grind easier by adding the ignore positions and dupe storage and then proceeds to have nothing to grind in the menu
Remember when we had icon swaps, was it boring? yes, but we knew there is something to play for
Legitimately, there is not enough time to truly enjoy this game... The gameplay is not worth it and all the other intricate things that is needed to upgrade your team takes too much time. Which is why I dropped the game before the month mark this year and may just wait until the summer again to grind and have fun without all the stress involved
So glad I finally gave the game up
When the comedy is so real it helped me shit this morning g I laughed so fucking hard at the absurdity!
The issue with eafc 25 at the moment is rivals. Where good players stay in low divisions where they should be higher division. Spoil the fun for low rated players.
the thing that piss me off the most is the to many squads that are 81 82 83 so its cost lots of players for an 84 rating without a palystyle plus or if they gave one its like chip shoot or travela , so disappointing
