Having said that, there’s still very little here to dissuade FM diehards from picking the game up again and thrashing out several hundred hours. Lots of style but very little substance, no matter how fruitful the product. In football parlance, Football Manager 2018 is a case of Pardew-esque all-singing *shudder* all-dancing over a more pragmatic, forward-thinking approach.
There’s simply too much going on, and you’d be far better off learning the ropes on its more forgiving vanilla cousin FM Touch (which you get free with every copy of the main game) before stepping into the breach.
The upgraded set of analysis tools at your disposal will also make identifying your team’s shortcomings – as well as your opponents’ – easier than ever before, which is a welcome addition.Įlsewhere though, it’s hard to recommend this version to newcomers over previous efforts, updated squads notwithstanding. For those people, additions such as the pre-match tactical match briefing will be a godsend, as it works as a nice crutch to help work out what does and doesn’t work in-game.
It’s also worth noting that, for every Football Manager vet, there are going to be players who will be making their debuts this year in gaming’s greatest time-sink.
