    These games do actually get better year on year with meaningful improvements where many other yearly sports games don't evolve or even get worse.

    FM 23 is another great game!

    Good-
    Stupidly addictive; Mind-bogglingly comprehensive; Offers a ridiculous degree of control over every aspect of club management; Smart iterative improvements refine the experience even further; Matches look better thanks to improved animations; UEFA license.
    Bad- Perhaps the smallest ever yearly upgrade in Football Manager history. Thoughts- Summed up, the story of Football

    Perhaps the smallest ever yearly upgrade in Football Manager history.

    Thoughts-
    Summed up, the story of Football Manager 2023 is one that might put the game in a strange position for series veterans. It’s an incredible game, and there’s no way that fans won’t get hundreds of hours of addictive enjoyment out of it. From managing your squad and keeping your players happy to developing the next batch of wonderkids into a team of world-beaters, the experience of building up your club and transforming its fortunes remains as rewarding and engaging as ever. In fact, multiple iterative improvements and tweaks come together to make Football Manager 2023 the best game in the series. At the same time, however, this is also very much a case of diminishing returns. The gap between yearly FM instalments is feeling smaller than ever, so even though this year’s game is an accomplished management sim in more ways than one, it might not necessarily be one that you absolutely have to get if you’ve already got its immediate predecessor in your library.

    This is the first FM game I have really put time and energi in and I love it, it is the perfect sim for football fans that likes to buy players, set up the ideal tactic and play with players you never have heard off.

    Igual de bueno que siempre, con un par de detallitos nuevos como cada año.

    Obviamente siempre se espera una gran mejora, cuando llegue será un 10 ese año.

    Good game.
    Only cons are that there isnt a lot of features added uppose to the last game and the setpieces NEEDS to be updated.
    But for the rest really realistic and lots of fun.

    El juego sigue siendo entretenido pero muy poco novedoso a los 2 anteriores anos donde habian algunos cambios mas importantes y atractivos que este ano ademas de que el precio por el juego aumento un 20% mas a las entregas pasadas, se centraron mas en esta edicion en conseguir licencias de competiciones que la jugabilidad del juego

    At its core, a great and fun game. But that was also in 2022, where the feeling that it made sense to not only pay full price for a new game, but to spend a lot of time in it, still prevailed. [Issue#323]

    "A spreadsheet with soccer players," a friend once called Football Manager. He was right, but it is a damned addictive Excel file: in the meantime, we have invested another fifty hours or so in making our local team virtual champions. If you ask us, Football Manager would be better off switching to a subscription formula, but okay: for about fifty euros you get a whole year of spreadsheet fun.

    Even though it only brings a few new features, making it very similar to the last game, Football Manager 2023 is still the best football management game that delivers the best experience.
