I got Madden 22 for free and for awhile I was enjoying it. It was my first Madden game since the 360. So I start going to forums for the game, and every single post was about how bad the game is, highlighting ridiculous bugs, shitty AI, missing features.
Then details about Madden 23 started to come out and everyone that was tearing 22 apart was absolutely in love with every little thing that was shown.
I stopped reading those forums. It was surreal.
Civilization series is notorious for that too. Civ -1 is always the best of the series and current Civ is the worst.
At least civ tries new things. But yeah the constant release of a new game with less features is pretty common.
Man I remember being on the Gamefaqs forums back in like 2005 or so, and people were complaining about this exact scenario back then. Some things never change
