It always amazes me how well FIFA sells year after year after year here. I probably get one every 3-4 years (one a gen pretty much) and that's fine with me. But the success is truly mind-boggling.

I get people loving fifa and everyone should have their preferences. But you love it and dont buy it every year, how a esport game should be. Its not like its a diferent game from last year, they dont even improove the fisics all that much to be notisable. Its just a few characters moded, to look slighty diferent, maybe some new characters, maybe diferent clothes but this is not new game content, this is barely DLC content. This clearly confuses me when it comes to esports.


As someone who buys FIFA every year, I think I can clear the confusion. Simply put, even if the gains / improvemnets are marginable; core fans of the series will see the upgrade as worthwhile. The the more casual fan the diferences do not justify the upgrade cost. That's basic consumerism right there.

It's no diferent in other industries such as bikes, cameras, phones etc. 

This answer I like, just tell me that your a fan, but dont tell me that the diference is huge on a game that canot change much cuz is based on a real world standard that canot be altered.


Can you read? I said fans will upgarde despite the diferences being marginal - which is the total opposite to what you are paraphrasing by throwing around the word "huge".
