I played a lot of 16, and this... Feels the same, to me. (Not very often I say that because there's clear improvements year-on-year, but... The ball is too fast and floaty, the AI on World Class and Legendary has 70% possession and 90% pass completion - yes I know there's sliders but it doesn't fix the lack of variety and the singular style of play.)
Nice to look at but I'm really disappointed with the gameplay. Sliders will make it better, but essentially a prettier version of 16, and after a year of it, I don't really want another one, hence looking forward to 17 in the first place! It feels weird, for want of a deeper explanation. The floaty ball mixed with some weird animations (I had Pogba kick the ball by throwing his foot THROUGH HIS OTHER FOOT in a scissor-like motion)... Gutted.
