Player Career has a new personality system which lets you play, with FIFA 23 Coins the most dramatic air quotes, play the role of the footballer you want to play. For me, this amounted to 25 'Maverick Points' for purchasing a 'High-end Hybrid Mattress' for a Serbian striker playing in the K-League which is why you can imagine the time I spent with the system.
You're now able choose a real manager (or Ted Lasso, however real you want him to have been) that you're able to take on Manager Career however, the game isn't much fun unless you choose to cosplay as Jason Sudekis' mute or dress Eddie Howe in a lovely sweater, there's really nothing else to do except look at the bizarre cutscenes. The time that was spent to import AFC Richmond for its brief novelty might have be used for, such as integrating Women's Club Football into Career Mode however it's not in the game. This is a shame since women's soccer is a compelling example of the potential of EA's HyperMotion motion-capture technology, offering authentic motion-capture animations that ramp up the immersive tension.
It's true that FIFA 23 still has the potential to be irritating. Goalkeepers sometimes collapse in the middle of the field instead of trying to save the day There aren't many situations more tedious than match-up with a dope on Seasons who seems to be more interested in doing endless complicated tricks and stepovers than actually playing football.
Matchmaking does seem to have been improved however. In the case of clubs outside the European elite, you aren't likely to draw attention to the PSGs of your club or your Real Madrids as often, although there are occasions when Ronaldo perve will still pop on the screen in the form of Manchester United. Maybe that's more indicative of Manchester United's Red Devils' fall from grace rather than anything else.
Ultimate Team - FIFA's playable soccer mode, as well as the virtual equivalent of the European Super League - now lets you build an elite group thanks to a more lenient approach to how its team chemistry system operates. Players from the same league , or country no longer need to be close to each to form a team to increase your chemistry score as well as they don't lose their football skills due to the fact that they don't have something in common with their teammates.
Some will welcome the extra freedom this gives when shopping in the transfer market but it's a little like a large part of what made creating teams interesting and interesting has been sucked out. However, FUT 23 buy Coins is still largely uninspiring and shows all the worst parts that modern soccer has to offer. The interface isn't nearly as welcoming as an upscale Rangers pub for someone sporting an Celtic scarf.
