My brother kept forcing me to play FIFA with him.
Like any competitive game, the skill ceiling is practically infinite.
FIFA (at least up until around 2015) is infinitely more complex and difficult to master than games like Elden Ring.

If you play Elden Ring and think you’re hardcore compared to your friend who plays FIFA, then I have bad news for you...

Virtually every single game is a simulator of some kind.

People who like racing and like sports, people with friends.
Not surprising you can't relate.

Baseball and golf are the best sports to translate to video games.
Everything else usually ends up too chaotic and feels like it's computer vs computer while you minimally contribute.

But golf is 90% about practicing the correct technique for swinging the club in real life. Video games that have you clicking three times or moving the analog stick have nothing to do with golf. Those simulators where you practice swings in front of a projector are a different story, though...

Not so with simulators.
Good racing simulators are, in my opinion, among the most in-depth video games you can find. They're one of the few where you need to study real-world aspects if you want to be even minimally competent. Knowing how to set up cars correctly is crucial, and for that, you need a solid understanding of all their basic mechanics.
Then there's the technical aspect of operating the cars themselves, which requires a lot of practice with the controls (which is why simulators need good steering wheels and pedals), but also being aware of every detail of the car.
Unlike rhythm games, you're never doing the same thing in simulators.You're constantly reassessing the condition of the car and the track and adapting in real time.

People that shit on racing and sports games usually have no one to play games with and on top of that enjoy JRPG, which is the shittiest genre known to mankind.

See I would think that for the fact that racing games use to be played by everyone. Wheres Burnout, Destruction Derby, Need for Speed but good etc. The racing games being made now are more like sims and less about going fast and being awesome, its the same with all sports games. Its just sim shit based more on reality than fun, wheres the fun stuff.

I heard sports game like FIFA are pretty skill intensive in PVP and that's why some FIFA games are better rated than others
>>
>>738860530
I haven't played a sports game in so long, I had no idea they had actual mechanical depth to them. I assumed they were picking plays like JRPG menus.

>>738860185
Its really not, its as fast and awesome as mil sims are when what you is an action packed shooter. Seriously, every racing and sports game is a sim now, go back and play something like Burnout and remember what fun was
>fuck is that a turn? I need to stop a mile down the road because with realistic controls of cars I can take a turn too fast
>damn I got overtaken, I best wait my turn to overtake because I need to build speed to slipestream past them, like in real life
vs
>fuck is that a turn? Im going to handbrake slide around it, smash in the wall, and keep moving *rock musoc blares the whole time*
>damn I got overtaken, pit that fucker, watch as his car wrecks out and explodes, message pops up "500pts"
Wheres the fucking sauce anon. Wheres the fun. This is as fun as weapon jams in shooting games, theres a place for it, but when its in every game its like they think making shooting games is about weapon maintenance and not actually shooting cool guns.

maybe it's an acquired taste, but racing people online in leagues in sims is really fucking fun, at least for me

>compared to that how many modern arcade racing games can you name?
I can't. Except Forza horizons maybe. But at the same time I can't imagine playing arcade racing game outside of burnout, forza and simcades. I feel like once you "outgrew" them it's hard to come back. Too simple. Too primitive.

>>738856360
Normies are just idiots who "think" they're enjoying something by association with "accept" that they feel.
Gamers are people who actually formed their tastes and know what they play, and enjoy it for that reason.

Sports games are a lot of things, being games without mechanical depth is not one of them.
Can't speak for NFL games, but both fifa and NHL have pretty ridiculous skill ceilings for players to reach. Too bad for the games that rng seems to be the biggest contributor to game results. Watched my kid play NHL 26 and saw the goalie glove down a shot, covered it in front of himself, then moved the puck into the net(which counted as a goal) as the rng said that shot was going to be a goal. Works in reverse to woth goalies making physically impossible saves because the algorithm said that shot cant be a goal.

The actual game even in 2026 is ultra fun, but the issue is that the most played mode is the nigger one with the magic cards that literally makes your players worse if the opposing team's players are the magic kind. I've had Cruyff kick off, sprint past 5, and no matter what buttons I press, he will score a goal for no reason. Whoever leads in the game will 100% concede a goal at some point. It's so blatantly scripted it kills your will to live. The actual game with the actual players is purely skill, magic shit doesn't happen there, and to this day I have no idea why actual competitive tournaments don't play the real game and play the card game instead.
>>
>>738860690
One of my mates got me into fifa and I played it for a few years. The pvp is really the draw of the game, and raping someone who spent thousands of dollarinos on their team is great. The game is rigged tho(scripting), EA is fucking gay.
