A South Korean Football Manager streamer who is sponsored by SI Games had this to say after publicly quitting FM26 on a live stream:
“Whether it’s checking records or looking at other clubs, I just don’t feel like doing anything. I end up just skipping straight to the matches.”
“FM is a text-based game, but now reading the text feels stressful. That’s the biggest problem.”
“The in-game graphics have improved a lot, but the match engine still feels disappointing.”
“If you just want to watch matches, you might as well play the FC series. There’s no reason to play FM anymore.”
“I have a lot more to say, but since this is a sponsored stream, I’ll stop here.”
“Lastly… don’t bother sponsoring next time just make FM27 a good game.”
Summed it up nicely I think.
