The last Madden I owned was NHL 22. I dont play ultimate team. I mostly play "be a pro" and the franchise mode. Should I buy Madden 25, there's a good discount going on currently? Is it good?
I refuse to pay full price for Madden 26.

I dunno about Madden but if the games are programmed anything like Fifa then they've been dogshit for almost an entire decade now (Fifa 17 was the last good one for reference).

Madden 25 is absolute putrid garbage.

I bought it on sale for $15. I refunded within hours.
>superstar mode is now mostly online, where to progress your player you do ghetto-tier "challenges" against other online players
>you can only ever play as one superstar which is basically your online "avatar" in a cancerous social media imitation no one asked for
>most of the game features are GAAS
>absolutely swimming in microtransactions
>game is online only
>online services are dependent on an online server
>the TOS explicitly states that this server will be eventually shut down and with it most of the game's features
>the game itself is unfun and the same animation-bound bullshit as previous entries
>its playerbase is almost entirely negative but keeps buying because football is the only game they care about
This is coming from someone who started with the series with the game in your OP, who spent nearly 1000 hours creating franchises filled with totally fictional teams and players.

Play anything else, anon. If you want to check out the newest Madden on PC, there are torrents for Madden 20. Madden 25 is mostly a sidegrade outside of Teambuilder which is cool but a) doesn't make up for the lack of fun and b) will go away once the servers are shut down.

Thanks bro. So you'd suggest that I'll stay on Madden 22 for my franchise mode needs?

I just want to remind everyone the Bungles will NEVER EVER win an Owl. Joey Reddit is overrated and carried by a pair of HOF receivers.

Yeah. I didn't really notice much of an improvement and I'm playing on 20.

Maybe after they get a new dev team which momentarily works hard before realizing they're stuck working under EA and gives up, which seems to be the Madden cycle at this point. Or Goodell finally retires and the new commissioner isn't a complete faggot and realizes competition is a good thing.
