Best hockey manager you can get. Stoked to see where this game goes in the future
Great sim game for hockey management at an amazing price.
i love viggo bjorck
would love world championship to be included so its not best of the best always.. giving smaller countries more chance to suprise, same as maybe some features as player morale, franchise managment etc etc.. as it gets boring after time when only thing you manage is lineup,coaches and scouts. deffinitly would add more micromanagment about franchise and its presentation, also maybe being able to become coach, not just GM (or at least being able to make some chaices mid game if its not going so well, such as changing pressing or just some instructions) solid 8/10 worth every cent, points reducted mainly because of not being able to manage more things as real GMs do, especialy after save gets so boring after first 2/3 seasons when u build that depth ineup with both offensive and defensive lines and starting new save or changing club / franchise after every 2 season aint gona fix that boredom as feeling losing what you build gets that morale of a player down )
worth
UI is really simple. A ton of things to change around. Lots of customization and very quick simulations!
Best Game to NHL Fans and best way to start interesting in hockey and of course best way lo learn history of NHL
First of all, this game is absolutely worth it. As a huge hockey fan that has been stuck with EA NHL's franchise mode for years, HLM has brought GM Mode to a whole new level. The fact that you control literally every aspect of the league and play how you want to play is amazing. The developer can definitely raise the price imo because with EHM being out of the picture and well Franchise Hockey Manager not being the best, HLM takes the hockey Game of the Year for me every year. The fact you can also be commisioner and control as many teams as you want is a huge bonus for me. Thank you for all your hard work and looking forward to HLM 27!
A comunidade fez um bom trabalho ao adicionar as ligas. Falta ao jogo uma atenção nas ligas de desenvolvimentos e ligas com promoção/rebaixamento.
