Well, this is the most realistic simulation on the market. The only gamey part is guys actually getting in trouble for having affairs.

Not a storyline but I just had Thome during the playoffs tell me he wants to be traded though after the playoffs are done he will be a free agent. Kind of hard to trade him!

Storylines, no; better news reports, yes.

I thought it was hilarious. Well done.

No way this is based off ethnicity right? Had the same thing happen with Hiroyuki Nakajima.

OOTP seems to have hardly evolved their news in the last few versions. I still get a generic 'The season is over, X team is Champions, off season starts tomorrow" notes at the end of each year. What's up with that? It's boring. Fix it.

Same with winning streaks. There was a team in one of my leagues once (not mine), that started off 21-0, and OOTP never even mentioned it in the news. Also boring. Fix it.

I agree, that element can be a more than little anti-climactic. I hope we are fortunate enough in v15 to generate some News discussion, in addition to a thorough update of our storyline tools, which exists independently.

Is there a list of all the different storylines in the game?
