I've had 26 for around a month now. So far, I'm really enjoying this version. Last years Integrated Mod was by far the best addition to the game in years. Absolutely loved it. Having the Negro League players available for my random debuts added so much enjoyment to the game. Still waiting for Josh Gibson to show up in one of my league, but I know that day is coming. I really hope the team continues to work with Garlon and Lansdowne to in an effort to ensure even more Negro League players get added.

Over the years, I think I wasted way too much time being too obsessed with the all mighty adjust/weaken settings. Way too much time. For several versions I was following the belief that lowering the defaults for both hitting and pitching was the way to go. I followed this method for all of 23 and 24. Big mistake. Then with the start of 25, the idea became, raise the adjust/weaken settings. Even bigger mistake. One method pulled all the great players down and the other in a way pumped them up way too much. Starting late in OOTP25, I began to simply use the default settings and I'm loving what I'm seeing.
