Jesus Christ.. the incel/neckbeards have no shame. It's a fucking game you twats.
I have no skin in the game with FIFA, I enjoy watching a good game of football but haven't played a game in years. That said, is it a game or a simulation? People play FIFA as they want to feel like the part of the sport they watch from the terraces/on TV every Saturday, and in that Sport, there's no mixed league.
The cynic in me says that this is just a way for EA to pad out the card pool with loads more low stat "trash" players from the woman's game forcing people to grind/pay more to seek a good pull.
You started out asking whether it's a game or simulation, then ended up talking about card pulls. Clearly it's a game then right?
It's a game. In the UT mode you can use players in your team that have long been retired or dead. You have cards that make up crazy what ifs scenarios, like what if Ronaldo was a center back or Messi a right back (don't know if those cards actually exist but you get the point). You can make crazy teams that are completely unrealistic. Now they are expanding that with women.
I don't see the issue personally. I just played it for fun and to make crazy teams. My front line right now is Leao, Raúl and Mahrez. Wouldn't mind changing Mahrez for Beath Mead just for fun. 🙂
