FM26 - I just don’t get it.
I’ve tried what feels like everything. Tried making my own tactic. Tried downloading a tactic. Tried a lower league save. Tried a premier league save. Tried a club I love. Tried a club I have no ties to. Tried unemployed. I just can’t get into it.
I want to play FM and want to get engrossed in it like I have done with all the other years, but I just can’t and I just don’t get it. It took me ages to try and find my staff shortlist. It took me ages to try and find out if I really did offer that ass man a contract. I can’t even figure out how to go on bloody holiday! I’ve put a good few hours into the game since buying it when the beta first became available, but I just can’t get going. I’ve not made it to November yet even when starting later on in the season. I’ve got that desire to play FM, but then after about 30 minutes, I just can’t be bothered where everything feels so difficult.
I’m sorry to the people who are sick of these posts, I really am. But I just need to vent and just need to ask if I’m the only one who feels like this?
TL;DR - I don’t understand how the game works, I can’t get pulled into it and I can’t find how to go on me holidays
