PES used to be my childhood. A game that i played 3-4 hours a day, nearly everyday. I owned pes 2008, 2009, 2013, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021 and finally this abomination called e football. I will explain why i truly hate this game and i would never buy it if it wasnt f2p.

At first glance, this game gives the impression that it respects its roots. The gameplay elements that made PES the game it was, are here. The physics and movements are better than the competition. Small elements that make the game feel "real" are here. The GK movements seem authentic and the graphics are way better than version 0.x.

However, this mist of originality gets dispersed when u reach div 4 in the game. From this point onwards, the game becomes P2W without admitting it. And thats not all. At this point, even some academic professor start to care enough (since the PES series is THAT old) to construct papers that prove that this game tries to imitate the success of League Of Legends -with the skin and events prices- without making the experience better for the player that actually plays. For example, we have 19-20 different versions of Messi, even though players like him are not the meta. Someone with no experience at the game thinks that messi will buy him success then logs in plays a match and witnesses his messi and squad get anhilated by simple controls that make defence so easy and scriptable. In other words, its not the P2W cards that are the main issue with the game, but the control scheme and script that makes players play a specific way in order to win games, while cultivating the feeling that better cards will win u more games.

I BET 2000$ cash that the next moneygrab tactic this abomination of a Company will integrate in this game is a marketplace with guaranteed epics for 500 coins, which will make them more money while keeping the gameplay as toxic as it is now. This was a rant, not a review. Thank you for your attention.

No No No No No!
P.S: WTF! Instead of haaland they have vinland ;)

Game has potential, but here are my issues:

-promotes gambling
-OP automated defending
-DDA
-awful connection

Online casino in the guise of a soccer simulation game, which offers little or no fun but is very imaginative when it comes to collecting your money. And I say that as a free-to-play player, who has invested little or no money in the game even though I've been playing it since its release.

Mobile game made available for PC users. Online gaming is impossible due to incompetent devs.
It's also P2W. There are paid cards that glitch their entire engine just to give an advantage. It's hilarious.
You cannot dribble. Yeah... mobile game created with tiny screens in mind. Just spam some passes and shot. Even the UI looks mobile.

I'll try it again next year and see how it developed.
Don't even try if you ask me. Game is garbage. Do something else with your time.
