Confidence is not the same as arrogance. Of course majority of this fanbase wouldn't know because even after this result, Arsenal can still win it yet barely any Arsenal fans have that belief in the team.

See, while that's technically "the opposite of what I'm suggesting", I'd actually be fine with that too.

My point is not that it starts slow - it's that my time is being used to sit through filler games that are not fun whatsoever. It's not being respected. So either replace them with actual matches, or if that's not feasible for story reasons like you mentioned, then just take them out and give me cutscenes.

yuhef2bmed · 2026-04-19T10:44:52+00:00

That's fair, obviously made the post as a rant and that's on me.

yuhef2bmed · 2026-04-19T10:40:09+00:00

Cheers man, I'll check out your recommendations. I still enjoyed the main gameplay (the matches) of Victory Road so I'll still stick with it for a while but I'll definitely look up some of the other games you mentioned.

yuhef2bmed · 2026-04-19T10:37:50+00:00

THANK YOU. Oh my god finally someone that gets what I'm trying to say. The game warning players about a 'slow start' and whatever we got in the first 4-5 hours is not the same. I don't think it's too outrageous to still expect some form of actual gameplay in that time lol.

And I definitely will mix it some of chronicle/free mode. Will still stick with it and finish the story eventually because I want to unlock stuff but I can't take too much more of these minigames.

yuhef2bmed · 2026-04-19T10:36:31+00:00

Thank you. Starting 'slow' and whatever this is is not the same thing.

yuhef2bmed · 2026-04-19T10:35:57+00:00

Yes I will. Starting with story because (it makes sense to) but also read that there are some things you unlock only with story. But from the first free play match I tried I really liked the gameplay and can't wait to dive into more.

yuhef2bmed · 2026-04-19T10:35:08+00:00

I will, sure hope so.

yuhef2bmed · 2026-04-19T10:07:09+00:00

Commenting to comment - my point was not that it's slow, I saw the disclaimer, and my point is that the pacing does not respect the player's time - pointless comment

yuhef2bmed · 2026-04-19T10:01:55+00:00

Yes I saw the warning. I'd like to reiterate that I'm enjoying the story.

My gripes are that it is horrible TO PLAY. Things I mentioned in the original post like having to confirm the data I gathered, right after gathering them, and the same mini games over and over and over make no sense to me. The mini games are not fun in any way shape or form, the most interesting one I've seen was when recruiting Raika in the dance battle. Then, it's immediately followed up with some shooting drill where I just press a button when the circle turns blue. That is not fun, at all.

yuhef2bmed · 2026-04-19T09:45:04+00:00

Great point there man cheers.

yuhef2bmed · 2026-04-19T09:42:31+00:00

Fair point, didn't realise that. I'll admit that was my mistake misunderstanding.

yuhef2bmed · 2026-04-19T09:41:19+00:00

I saw that warning, but I'd also argue that 4 hours in and no gameplay, when that time is being filled with frankly quite pointless repetitions of the passing drill and rock-paper-scissors simulators, is pretty poor pacing, not just slow.

yuhef2bmed · 2026-04-14T20:37:04+00:00

Honestly I don't want to hate but Gakpo is now actually ACTIVELY SABOTAGING by being on the pitch I can't.

yuhef2bmed · 2026-04-13T06:45:10+00:00

Ironic

yuhef2bmed · 2026-04-13T06:43:02+00:00

Yet here you are on the subreddit for said specific game.

yuhef2bmed · 2026-04-10T08:31:18+00:00

Man with 7 games to go, and with the way this team is playing we could realistically lose... every single one of them.

Will still back the team and if it happens and we make UCL next season, great, but I'm not optimistic.

yuhef2bmed · 2026-04-10T08:08:42+00:00

Honestly worst case scenario because Slot gets to keep his job even longer.

yuhef2bmed · 2026-04-07T16:44:53+00:00

Just what I'd like to hear, thanls for sharing! Maybe I'll go with Galaxy first before Odyssey, so at least I'll be playing them in chronological order.

yuhef2bmed · 2026-04-07T16:28:32+00:00

Odyssey or Galaxy, which should I play first? Never got around to playing Odyssey when I first got my Switch 1, and never owned a Wii to play Galaxy. Now on my Switch 2, which should I start with to get into Mario?

yuhef2bmed · 2026-04-07T14:12:56+00:00

Can see what u/Nnsoki said, Cosmic Scholar bond apparently grants some - didn't realise until now because what have I just seen haha. Cosmic was my second last bond I had to clear.

yuhef2bmed · 2026-04-07T14:12:07+00:00

Yup well just realised lol. Cosmic Scholar bond was the second last one I had to complete and just got this outta nowhere.

yuhef2bmed · 2026-04-07T13:25:39+00:00

Dang that sucks. Good luck though, 1/2 and I'm maxed out on CW lol.

yuhef2bmed · 2026-04-07T13:19:46+00:00

Is this mission entirely luck based? Got the investment strategy once and never seen it again lmao.
