More like NHL 13.12

I wish. NHL 13-14 were actually great games, unironically better gameplay 10 years ago. NHL15 on new gen was when the downfall started (old gen/legacy edition were still great).

The skating changes they've made are significant. The game actually looks closer to real hockey with the adjustments they've made. That & the players slipping past each other instead of running into one another.

It'll take years to fine tune, but this is genuinely an impressive change.

Like the way players work the puck around. It's the part of the game that I hated the most was how players didn't face the net or protect angles defensively around the net.

Not sure how you can tell that from 30 seconds of hand picked gameplay footage.

I am indeed going off the gameplay trailer.

I said it’d take years to fine tune - just that this looked like a meaningful step in the right direction

i guarantee any "new" technology they're using is at least 3 years old. no credit is due for these smoothbrain devs

The deluxe edition of the game comes out in 9 days and we still don't have the Franchise mode deep dive. Next year EA won't even release marketing until after launch

the ratings continue to blow my mind. game is entirely unplayable for offline until after the first games are played and they add the new players

at which point you need to edit almost every player on every team.
