#The game does not reward you for your time, only for your skill level ( EA DOESNT READ THIS)

In other games, you earn better items by:
• playing a lot
• completing quests
• investing time

In FC26, this does not apply.
You only receive strong rewards if you:
• reach a high division
• achieve 11 or 14 wins in Champs

If you play well but are not elite level, it feels like your effort doesn’t pay off.
This makes the game mentally exhausting.

⸻

  1. Every match feels like “all or nothing”

Losing means:
• your rating drops
• you miss out on good packs
• you make no progress

Psychologically, it feels as if every match is an exam.
This drains motivation very quickly.

⸻

  1. Matchmaking is extremely strict (skill-based)

You almost never get a relaxed or easy match.
You always face someone of your exact skill level — or a smurf account that is much better.

This means:
• few easy games
• little flow
• high stress
• frequent frustration

And frustration naturally kills motivation.

⸻

  1. Rewards are so low that it feels like your time is wasted

You can play an entire weekend of Champs and end up with:
• an 84
• an 85
• some gold packs
• 7k coins

This is not satisfying.
Your team does not visibly improve, and you don’t feel rewarded for the effort you put in.

⸻

  1. The system often works against your enjoyment

The game is designed to:
• increase frustration
• make you feel unlucky with packs
• make you feel your team is falling behind
• subtly push players toward microtransactions

This is exactly why motivation drops — the game provides pressure rather than enjoyment.

All of this is correct, and the sad part is that people don't care cause they just sit with their meta Pina, Nico JR and Yamal teams. Those players are simply better than most of the icons and heroes in the game, which doesnt make any sense to me at all.

Very true and i ll never reward EA with extra money if their is no enjoyment. I need to have fun to give you some extra bucks.

As a low skill player, all I do is "quests" since I can't get rewards from playing real modes, I just try to complete doable objectives. In the Silver events for instance. I start a game, get a pity goal and then afk. There is no way for me to even win a single game.

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 spot on . That’s exactly how this game works. You cannot even build a squad with players that you like , not the meta ones or Mbappes and others, if you are not div 1,2 or make more then 10 wins in WL . Coins not even to mention it cause you play hours and at the end of the day you get 10k coins. 🤷🏻‍♂️
