    FIFA 21 is great. The small refinements make the biggest impressions this year, and I’m excited to see how the next-gen versions pan out. It’s finally good to be a Career Mode player again, and I just hope that over the coming years we see a bigger focus on Volta and less on pushing players into paying for FUT coins.

    While FIFA 21 plays a lot smoother than its predecessor and offers even more content for the fans of career and VOLTA mode, it once again feels like an evolution not a revolution. EA Sports really need to breathe new life into their football simulation. But maybe that will only happen, as soon as the franchise arrives on next gen consoles.

    The online games feel fresh. But the gameplay changes are only in the details, since years the FIFA series is based on the same formulas. FIFA 21 clearly lacks innovation.

    FIFA 21 maintains the same base as last year, with few gameplay tweaks that are here make for a better overall experience.

    FIFA 21 fixes some on-pitch issues, though it stops short of giving the series the meaningful overhaul it needs.

    The few positives do not outweigh the negatives. EA Sports continues to phone it in with the FIFA series while single-player gamers cry out for better options.

    Without losing all of its qualities, FIFA is once again struggling to correct its gameplay flaws and will have to wait at least for a substantial update, or more likely a new opus to hope to convince us on this point.

    FIFA 21 is the same game like FIFA 20 and so on. It s the same recycled game that you must pay a full price game.
    The gameplay is full of    FIFA 21 is the same game like FIFA 20 and so on. It s the same recycled game that you must pay a full price game.
    The gameplay is full of bugs, unrealistic and very very arcade style.
    No one inn real life play football like you play inn FIFA 21.
    Ultimate Team is a money maker, created only to spend real money to have the CHANCE to get a certain player. So, yes, it is gambling.
    Career Mode is not good. These so called new features are actually not functioning in the game. These features are only cosmetics text for the eye. Do not get fooled.
    On the PC Version of the Game, if you are using Nvidia graphic card, you are likely to experiment crashes and freezes. There is no good optimiziation for the PC users.
    This is just not football.
    And the PC Version will not get the next gen upgrade like the console users.
    FIFA 21 is very very bad.

    So you want to know how bad this game is? I have been playing video games since I was 5 years old and got my first super-nintendo. I have beenSo you want to know how bad this game is? I have been playing video games since I was 5 years old and got my first super-nintendo. I have been playing thousands of games for over 20 years but have never reviewed one before today..

    I felt obligated to tell the world how bad this game, because it is not only the normal kind of bad, but the worst kind of bad..

    After Fifa 2019 I told myself "I am never going to buy another EA game ever again". But for some odd reason I got tricked into believeing the hype this year when someone said "the game mechanics are really good this year". Let me perfectly clear: This game was only made with one purpose, to make money, lots of money.

    Some of the new fun parts introduced in this years game is that speed is even more meta,and defenders move like the mountain from game of thrones..

    But whats even more sinister than the shameful gameplay is how a certain company has perfected their "money making scheme".

    For the the first 10 games it actually feels fun, but that is short lived because this game is perfectly scripted from the start. For my first 10-games on world class difficulty on ultimate team I smashed my opponents 6-0 with a crappy team. But after I got to around 10- games something started to change.

    Suddenly the AI was making impossible moves, all my shots were hitting the post, and I was missing shots on an open goal. And it became perfectly clear that this game is scripted and forcing you to "go and buy some fifa points" so you can upgrade your stupid squad.

    I really hope that someone somewhere start making some new laws so that the gaming industry can stop promoting gambling to kids. But since "money talks" I am not getting my hopes up.

    So what is fifa 21? Its a simulator made only to make money and the simulator is always rigged slightly against you because as you all know "the house always wins".

    Please dont be a donkey like me and buy the game.

    This game is only made to make money, and it doesnt care if you are 5 or 80 years old, as long as you can press some buttons and buy fifa points.    … Full Review »
