Amazing foundation, sub par execution.

Live ‘18 is an overall very fun game. It’s easy enough to just pick up and play through the mini games or grind through the more competitive modes to provide entertainment for a good amount of time. Unfortunately like most mobile games now it will either take an insane amount of time or a good bit of money to obtain the items/player you actually want. The gameplay is very simple which is nice for any causal player to pick up and go. However, the issue with that is it’s almost too simple at times and when you are grinding for days on end to get what you want it can be frustrating. The rebounding is mainly AI controlled and there aren’t any tutorials or options that say otherwise, defense is understandably simple however is would be great if we had a way to switch to the player actually playing on ball defense. Also I’ve thrown many turnovers on offense from my player passing to everyone but the person I target (again no tutorial explaining this) I know the grind would be much more enjoyable if these gameplay issues were addressed.
