What the fuck happened? No, really, what the fuck happened? Why people buy players for money after preordering a full price product? Why people buy massive microtransactions to play a loot box tier roulette with fucking players, just to build a "stronger team"?
For how much this is going already?

To answer your question, this has been a thing since FIFA 09 showed the PS3 and Xbox 360 owners the "Ultimate Team" mode.
But if we're talking about "lootboxes", "microtransactions" and other similar things, maybe check out ZT Online if you have the time.

EA bribed, bullied, bought and otherwise broke its competition until they were the only one capable of using the likeness of its players, what most normie sportsball fans like.

The vast majority of EA's revenue is from third worlders and third worlder accessories who pay for their games and DLC using government provided welfare. This isn't even a joke.

Almost all the more important sports have a contract with EA to let them mass produce copycat versions of other people's games with yearly roster updates. Niche sports don't get the luxury of being treated any better but at least you're not giving money to those kikes.

I understand that burgers don't really get this but the 1st-world/2nd-world paradigm was about the cold wars American/Soviet blocs, with Third World nations being those that chose neither, which usually meant places from shitholes such as African nations and certain South American ones.

There was brief hope with Murray but then he kept injuring himself and now he's too old to win those last two grand slams IMHO. Federer refuses to die, and Nadal sucks dick everywhere but France which he still dominates to this day.

No one seems to mind getting fucked in the ass, but everyone gets very interested when they hear of other people creating free patches for Profresh. Most Profresh players I knew just switched over to Feefa because literally everyone else is playing it and the netplay is actually stable, despite the base game being even less immersive and more arcadeish than fucking Super Sidekicks. Though I hate to admit it but The Journey is much more entertaining than the standard career mode, they should've made career mode filled with cutscenes, training sessions and special matches so you can avoid playing as a nigger. Best part of the story is when you find out that the mischling's father actually realized there was no future in oil drilling and cucked his negro mom for a burger blonde, plus he got to keep in touch with his mischling son who makes loads of cash while living in a luxury hotel in L.A.
Most normalfags actually DO care about the quality of the vidya, much more than you think they do. The problem is that most of the times they just complain about stats and glaring bugs and useless features, never about the fact that it's just roster changes and botched or copied gameplay mechanics.

Yes, they took all the fun games and turned it into virtual card-games you pay for. Seriously, i've always enjoyed playing sports-games since i was a kid, don't own any of the newer ones besides Fifa (which was a f'n mistake and i regret buying it) because the games stinks, they removed all the fun with them, while just putting focus on DLC and crap nobody ever gave a shit about.
Sports-games used to just be great games to play against your friends.

PES is not good either, at least for a well-grounded manager mode. Kojima was a mistake, his budget antics made Konami lose a FIFPRO contract back in 2008
At least i heard PES is excellent in gameplay, but that comes from purists, who still like their players to move in 8 directions only

The problem is that they try to simulate human behavior in games that can only be fun as arcades. Therefore sacrifice speed, fluidity, drive and gameplay mechanics to appeal to people loving to watch cutscenes of players chatting with each other or preparing for the game, and generally play more with eyes than with hands.

PES has always had the better gameplay but no licensing so they've struggled to win over normalfags. Frankly this is one of those cases like sports broadcasting where an illegal monopoly could/should be declared, at least in the nations where that shit is regulated.
