it honestly feels like people who play the "core" game are just ignored now, the features for this year were laughably low-effort and unfinished and the gameplay remains the same

When you say the core game, do you mean NOT Perfect Team? I've not looked into PT yet and I don't think I will now that I know more about it.

I wouldn't hold your breath about things like launch angles. No one has told me what truly goes on behind the scenes with pitches and swings, but I have a feeling every "swing" is the same - the outcomes differ because of probability and player statistics and other formulas along those lines. Not because this player swung 0.0082s late and the center of his barrel sweet spot was 1/8 inch lower than square which results in the ball being fouled off behind the 1st base dugout. Again, I'm speculating...
