    EA Sports NHL 23 moves fast and hits hard with a ton of new features, a better look than ever and an overall more immersive experience. The gameplay was clean and the ability to get through games fast is ideal for every type of gamer.

    There is no excuse for the state of this game and complete reluctance towards improving any mode other than HUT.

    The only solution I can see is to take the pay-to-win micro-transaction cancer that is HUT and make it a free to download entity on it's own. They could then completely separate the development team who works on the actual NHL game from those who work on the absolute PoS mode known as HUT; which only exists because of the profit it generates from morons who are actually dumb enough to spend real money on intangible pieces of code who's value immediately becomes zero when the next game is released. I have purchased every NHL game from 2001-2023, but I will be boycotting this franchise until HUT is removed.

    Do not buy this game if you care at all about EA's complete negligence towards any mode other than HUT, or about combating micro-transactions in gaming. If you're one of the useful morons who continues to play HUT despite how it was patient zero in the pay-to-win pandemic, has destroyed the real NHL game that millions loved, and has spread the infection that is it's valueless model of micro-transactions to nearly the entirety of the gaming community, then this game is for you.

    I miss the days when hearing "EA sports, it's in the game" made me excited every October, rather than make me cringe.

This game hasn't been respectable for nearly a decade just rehash rosters and skin changes with terrible modes that have been over looked for years. But hey they included women's hockey for "inclusion" while discriminating against PC gamers. Expand
