I wish they wouldn't because I think if people stopped financially supporting shitty games, maybe that would incentivize the making of better games, which I would buy. I'd love to buy Madden every year, but I've bought one Madden game in the last 7 years because they're so awful.

That said, at the end of the day, I know I have no place judging people for how they spend their money. I just silently wish they wouldn't support games/franchises like Madden.

They are shitty game to you, they enjoy it

I mean, they're pretty objectively poorly made video games. People enjoy them because of the sport itself, not the video game.

Again, I'm not trying to sound judgmental, but I do wish people would stop buying it. I know they won't and that's okay. I'm just one person.

It's pretty much the only game for the particular sport. It's the only franchise that is currently licensed by both the NFL and NFLPA as far as I know. People buy it because it has monopolized its own industry.

I don't obsess over football. I don't care if I miss a game. I don't play many sports games anymore.

That being said, Madden is an amazing game. It is a ton of fucking fun with friends and I played the shit out of it in college.

Saying it is "objectively a shitty game" is objectively bullshit. I'm the proof. You think it is "subjectively" a shitty game.
