That’s actually my point. “Madden without the NFL” is always gonna be a dead-end. The next *serious* football game needs money and talent, yes, but it also needs its own sports world and design identity. Licensing should *amplify* the game, not be the reason it exists
Idk that works either. We've had a few not care about licensing that haven't even came close to EA game wise. Maximum has sucked. Axis is worse. I'm always hopeful and will always try them but man...I mean someone with resources as in someone who got money and knows what to do
