This is my rant after 2 months of play.
This isn't a game.
Nothing the game tells me helps me win. The fog of war is so strong that I'm better off automating the entire game. So then what is the game?
I recruit point guards, 2s, forwards and centers and play them where they should be in a standard motion offense. I lose. Games go south and I try to adjust (too many turnovers: increase the speed: more turnovers). I lose.
I get frustrated and tell the AI to make my line-up. It puts my freshman small forward at point guard. The one with zero knowledge of any offense. Why? Who knows? who made this line-up? If my assistant coach knows that he has secret skills, then why doesn't he tell me? Is this a Good Will Hunting thing where the genius janitor rewrote my white board overnight? How am I supposed to guess that my freshman small forward is my best point guard?
I recruit players and everything about them was wrong.
Some randomness is good. Complete randomness isn't a game.
