This year, there is a familiarity with the gameplay that doesn't quite excite as much as it used to. The Display 18's record of improvements lacks the punch some have come to expect out of a top-tier match. But like the Phillies, buyers of MLB The Show 18 Stubs should know they are receiving a dependable and high-quality solution, just not the most alluring we've seen in the past few decades.
That The Show's gameplay is as good as it has ever been is an important statement to make up front. Hitting feels a bit more natural and slightly less frustrating, without feeling overly simple. A redesigned feedback system, seemingly borrowed from the mythical MVP 2005, fast and easily allows you to appraise swing timing and contact.
Once put in to play, the ball travels more naturally than preceding years, even more than in the very good MLB The Display 2017, thanks in big part to greater hit variety and more realistic physics. I am seeing far more evaporating line drives and chunks which hug the fouls lines. Weak strikes around the plate also reveal more variety.
Fielding also seems tighter, with players behaving more like their real-life counterparts. This shows up in instances like my Phillies franchise, even in which Rhys Hoskins, a first baseman playing the outfield, has a far tougher time closing in on ground balls than his natural-outfield teammates. Catchers react quicker to balls in the dirt compared to in the past; if you are used to exploiting slow catchers, be ready to get chucked out more often. I have also seen more fluid tags all around the field, even though there are still a few occasional robotic animations.
