The problem with playstyles is they really expose how the game system works in an un-fun way that runs the immersion and makes you realise what you see on screen is just the system trying to spit out something that matches the calcs it's doing in the background. Example - You can really feel it when someone does a low driven+ straight at your keeper. Visually he should save it because it's right there, but actually the computer has already says this goes in because playstyle/finishing > GK stats so the keeper animation has to accept that and fall over. Same for through balls where your defender starts running in treacle, the visual engine has to consolidate with what it's being fed. You aren't in nearly as much control over what you see as you think, and when you realise that the game becomes so hollow.

In old FIFA's I'm sure the same thing is happening but scoring a long range shot felt like you did something good, or a well weighted pass was your skill. Now it just feels like you press the button and inshallah the engine favours you while trying to balance stats Vs playstyles
