開發商稱《足球經理 25》會為我們帶來永久的傷害

Football Manager is a famous video game series that lets players act as the manager of a football team. Every year, fans expect a new version, but this time, the creators made a surprising decision. They cancelled Football Manager 25, which disappointed many people. Miles Jacobson, the director at Sports Interactive, explained that the game was not ready and did not meet their standards. He said, 'I wasn't happy with the quality of the game, and I wasn't prepared for people to be going out and spending their hard-earned money on something that wasn't good enough. '

The history of Football Manager goes back to 1992, when it was called Championship Manager. In 2004, after a split with its publisher, Sports Interactive started releasing Football Manager. Since then, there has been a new game every year, so this cancellation is a big deal. Some fans felt the company did not explain the situation well enough, but Jacobson said they tried to be as open as possible. He explained that they had to tell the stock market first before they could talk to fans, which made things difficult. He also said, 'If we had released FM25 in the state that it was in, it wouldn't have been good value for money and it would have damaged us forever. '

Now, the team is focusing on Football Manager 26, which is expected to be released in the autumn. They promise it will be the biggest technical and visual improvement in years, with a new game engine, updated graphics, and a new user interface. One of the most exciting changes is the addition of women's football, which was supposed to be in FM25. The developers had to create a new player database and use motion-capture technology to accurately represent female players. Jacobson said that some famous female footballers convinced him that including women's football would help make it more popular. Gwen Archer, a streamer and fan, said she was disappointed by the delay but is excited for the new features. She believes that including women's football will make the game more enjoyable for everyone. The release date for Football Manager 26 has not been announced yet, but fans are hopeful that the extra time will make the game even better.
