It’s relieving to see HB Studios has not gone full 2K and tried to implement microtransactions into its progression system, but instead opted to stay true to a balanced game where there’s no substitute for execution. At a time where the majority of sports games have built-in player ratings and RNG baked into their gameplay, it’s downright refreshing to find one that continues to encourage people to get better only by playing the game and refining their efforts. Whenever you have a bad hole or round, you generally know what you’ve done wrong and what you need to do to correct it.
