    Horrible game. I've played PCM since 2010, and this is the first time I've felt the game is downright scripted. I have 10 hrs played so far, and haven't been close to a stage win or anything else. I'm not bad at the game, and considering the game has barely changed for 13 years, I'm pretty experienced.

    You can sit in a breakaway with one of the worlds best climbers and still lose a 500m
    Horrible game. I've played PCM since 2010, and this is the first time I've felt the game is downright scripted.

    You can sit in a breakaway with one of the worlds best climbers and still lose a 500m sprint on 10% against a mediocre sprinter. The game is litterally scripted into making you lose. Changing the difficulty of the game doesn't change anything at all. Stay away from this game as it will only make you frustrated and slam your desk. Appalling game.

    While Pro Cyclist Manager 2023 stands out as a commendable attempt in catering to a specific audience, its barriers to entry are undeniable. It's a game that requires persistence and a willingness to learn, making it a gem for simulation enthusiasts. Yet, the game's overwhelming complexity and steep learning curve can deter newcomers. Further, its outdated visuals and unintuitive user interface detract from its appeal. These aspects, when juxtaposed, highlight a game teetering between profound immersion and potential inaccessibility. However, when it hits its stride, the game is genuinely captivating, underlining why this series has retained its popularity for so long and is truly an unforgettable experience.

    Pro Cycling Manager 2023 is only meant for the most dedicated of cycling simulation fans, but the game itself is well-made, with no major issues. However, it can often feel like it was just last year's title from the same franchise, but with some necessary updates and a fresh coat of paint. As such, not all players will be willing to pay full price for some tweaks and a fresh new roster.

    Considered on its own, Pro Cycling Manager 2023 is a good cycling management simulation. It’s fun to create a custom team, fill it with youngsters, and try to dominate the sport in 3 to 5 years. Playing the official stages of this year’s Tour de France with any team in the peloton creates interesting situations and challenges. But the title fails to offer enough innovation when compared to last year’s installment. Anyone who still plays PCM 2022 should stick with that game until their favorite mod is updated. Pro Cycling Manager 2023 has solid core mechanics but the franchise needs to be more innovative going forward.
