EA are DESTROYING FC27!

Things we can learn from the video

1:40He judges Witching Hour's Evolution upgrades underwhelming after checking its requirements, stat increases and playstyle limits.
4:47An unfinished Assane Diao SBC has expired, costing him the cards he already submitted.
7:38He completes Scary Candy using Spanish La Liga players, then claims the associated rewards.
12:35He realises the Base Hero Player Pick offers only four specified players, changing his assessment of its value.
14:10His closing critique argues that FC27's live content asks too much time for too little reward.

NepentheZ loses more than patience in the week's most-watched upload: an Assane Diao Squad Building Challenge expires before he finishes it, taking his already-submitted cards with it.

That small setback fits the larger question running through "EA are DESTROYING FC27!": how much does Ultimate Team ask players to put in, and what does it give back? Craig Douglas checks the Witching Hour Evolution, completes the Scary Candy puzzle and opens his reward packs, finding little to change his assessment. "The time versus reward ratio is so bad," he says near the end. The video has passed 100,000 views.

The comments offer a useful counterargument rather than a single verdict. One viewer argues that players juggling jobs and other commitments benefit from having less daily content to chase. Others discuss placeholder Evolutions and the frustration of repeatedly facing similar teams. It is a disagreement about what a manageable football game should actually look like.

His nine-upload week wasn't entirely a rejection slip. "This SBC is 100% WORTH Completing!" supplied a more positive assessment, alongside the first Showdown SBCs and Ultimate Scream Team 2. The newest haunted-objective video is attracting the most viewing right now, followed by the Team 2 release.

Subscribers held steady, while daily channel viewing is running at less than half its usual level. Nearby in sports gaming, AA9skillz is drawing roughly its normal daily audience; SLAPTrain is quieter than usual too. For NepentheZ, the week's clearest thread is the practical value check: not simply what EA has added, but whether it deserves the cards and hours it costs.

Totally agree. Playing against the same players every game with 95 depth and offsidetrap spam..

In the EVO side at least they made the position requirements a little bit less strict...
Edit: but the EVO are still bad indeed
