Showcase 🥴
Where do I even start. Maybe I'm the only one who thinks this but I'll say it anyway.
The dumb challenges with the timers (one per match) is absolutely positively dumb. The multi-person matches that the CPU on your team can win before you finish all the objectives are just insanity. The War Games match took me about 8 attempts because the CPU would pin the other team and I couldn't switch fast enough.
I see people saying the Tamina match was hard but I found that easy but the annoying part of it is that dumb timer. Like all matches have.
Showcase was a cool concept and I like how they laid it out but some matches seemed like thrown in just for the sake of it. Huge selling point was "you can win or lose and change history" but that wasn't the case just like 2 times.
17 matches in total and really takes too long because those timers will make you restart matches. You don't get all rewards if you miss that objective. For some reason when a challenge pops up the CPU knows and will reverse so much. It was exhausting.
Good luck to anyone who tries to get ALL objectives because that WAR GAMES match is a sinful choice to put in the game. Not the match but the objective they deal you with. If they had the entrants enter at different times it would have been 100x easier. I was the first entrance which means they are the last. By the time you do the final challenge everyone is so beat that your team just goes for finishers and pins it's hard to be able to complete it. So good luck to all.
Paul Heyman is a GOAT though and him being the narrator for this was nice. Thank got they didn't have hybrid stuff for certain real events because that would have been so annoying. The clips they did show between matches was kinda annoying with all the bluring but it needed to be done.
