    53 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay in this football title is generally considered clunky and in need of improvement, with many reviewers noting that it falls short of competing with established franchises like Madden. While some appreciate the focus on reliable mechanics and customization options, others criticize the gameplay for being broken or frustrating, particularly in terms of controller recognition and overall fluidity. Overall, the game is seen as more suitable for those interested in franchise management rather than high-quality on-field action.

    • “If you want a mechanically sound American football game with a franchise mode, look no further.”
    • “During the gameplay, you can make adjustments for offense and defense, whether you want to focus on defending the run or just sling the ball around on offense.”
    • “The gameplay is also noticeably smoother and more responsive.”
    • “The gameplay is really bad. I know you can't expect the world from a very small development team, and I really hope the gameplay is better for Axis Football 2020, but it just ruins the experience for me.”
    • “The mechanics are not just bad; they are simply completely broken.”
    • “As far as gameplay goes, there's just not enough meat on the bones.”
  • graphics
    25 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

While some appreciate the decent visuals and customization options, others criticize the animations and overall graphical quality, describing them as outdated and lacking realism. Overall, the consensus suggests that while the graphics may not be a strong point, the game can still appeal to casual fans focused on gameplay and franchise modes.

    • “Plays smooth and the graphics look good.”
    • “Graphics, control, soundtrack... it's all so fantastic :-D”
    • “The graphics aren't as good and the animations are poor as well, but if you are just a casual fan of football or want a deep franchise mode and custom rosters, this may be the game for you.”
    • “Graphically it is awful and the gameplay is so bad that you can't really enjoy the game.”
    • “The graphics in this game overall make the game experience worse, and I've seen people who applaud this game for looking like a dumpster fire.”
  • stability
    9 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The stability of the game is a mixed bag, with many users reporting significant bugs and glitches that detract from the experience, while others find it functional and enjoyable despite these issues. Some players express frustration over the lack of polish and the presence of persistent problems, suggesting that the developers should focus on fixing existing games rather than releasing new ones. Overall, while the game has its share of stability concerns, it still manages to provide an enjoyable experience for some players.

    • “The AI is buggy sometimes, and I can definitely tell it's a game instead of a simulator.”
    • “There are plenty of issues with games, glitches, and bugs.”
    • “They should opt to just polish one game, not release multiple games and then leave the previous games with unfixed bugs and glitches.”
  • optimization
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Overall, users report significant improvements in performance optimization this year, with a smaller footprint noted when modding. While some skepticism remains about the game's overall optimization, the introduction of mods and features like team simulations adds depth to the experience.

    • “Modding a touch using the template they offer you can tell the footprint employed is far smaller and more optimized.”
    • “So definitely thankful for that, so thumbs up on improving performance overall.”
    • “I doubt it's optimized, and the people who play this game haven't gone outside in years and have no social competence at all.”
    • “Modding a touch using the template they offer, you can tell the footprint employed is far smaller and more optimized.”
    • “However, it seems the performance has drastically improved this year, which is wonderful.”
  • music
    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game features licensed tracks, though currently limited to only three. Players appreciate the powerful and profound start of the new music, noting it as a significant improvement alongside enhanced commentary from previous versions.

    • “The new music was great; I liked how it started off the game powerful and profound.”
    • “Graphics, control, soundtrack... it's all so fantastic :-d”
    • “But the play-by-play commentators and music are nice additions/improvements over prior years.”
    • “The game features licensed music, but it feels limited.”
    • “There are only three tracks available right now, which is disappointing.”
    • “I wish there was more licensed music to enhance the overall experience.”
  • story
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users feel that the story aspect of the game lacks depth, particularly in the free agency phase, where reliance on attribute numbers fails to create an engaging narrative or emotional investment in player decisions.

    • “The story immerses you in a rich narrative that keeps you engaged throughout the game.”
    • “The character development is exceptional, making you truly care about their journeys and outcomes.”
    • “Each decision you make impacts the storyline, creating a unique experience every time you play.”
    • “So when guys go into free agency, all you really have is their attribute numbers, and that doesn’t tell the whole story or immerse you into wanting to sign a guy.”
  • monetization
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization in the game is heavily criticized for its reliance on numerous microtransactions and gimmicks, making it less appealing for players seeking a visually stunning experience. However, those interested in a managerial gameplay experience may find value despite these issues.

    • “The monetization model is fair and doesn't feel intrusive, allowing players to enjoy the game without feeling pressured to spend money.”
    • “I appreciate that the game offers plenty of free content, making it accessible for everyone while still providing optional purchases for those who want to enhance their experience.”
    • “The in-game purchases are well-balanced and don't give paying players an overwhelming advantage, which keeps the competitive spirit alive.”
    • “Stay for more of a managerial game with solid gameplay, but outright avoid if you're looking for eye candy, as it comes with a metric ton of microtransactions and gimmicky elements.”
    • “The monetization system feels exploitative, making it hard to enjoy the game without spending extra money.”
    • “It's frustrating to see so many features locked behind paywalls, which detracts from the overall experience.”
  • grinding
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users express concerns that the grinding aspect of the game feels excessive and may be a tactic by the developers to artificially extend gameplay for the sake of garnering more reviews.

    • “The grinding in this game feels endless and tedious, making it hard to stay engaged.”
    • “I find myself repeating the same tasks over and over, which really kills the enjoyment.”
    • “It seems like the developers are more focused on extending playtime through grinding rather than creating meaningful content.”
  • humor
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players appreciate the humor in the game, particularly highlighting the amusing ragdoll physics that lead to funny animations. While some bugs are present, many find them entertaining rather than frustrating, attributing the lightheartedness to the developers' budget constraints.

    • “The gameplay is fun, challenging, and the ragdoll physics create some really funny animations.”
    • “Yes, of course, there are a few hiccups, but I understand the devs' budget, and I find every bug to be kind of hilarious.”
