Messi doesn't feel like Messi, he feels like just another player.

It still feels quite clunky, same as every year. The gameplay is still very robotic, the AI on the other team still gives you a good challenge and each team plays differently, something Konami always do right, its not every team playing like Barca like Fifa 16 but the game won't be a must buy for me.

Yes, you cannot alter anything except your lineup. There are a handful of teams available with zero customization. It’s a network test meaning you can only do online matches. Okay, this is not an actual demo and this is stated several times when loading up the game. Maybe they will be making use of the adaptive triggers in the future but this isn’t apparent in the demo. This may not sound like a big issue but it’s a pointless change to an established control scheme. For some odd reason, Konami has decided to change this, moving the sprint button to R2. It doesn’t matter which version of PES you pick up, the button layout has always been the same. Also with no commentary, the repetitive audio soundbites are glaringly obvious and break the immersion of the game.Ĭontrols are ingrained into gamers.
PES DEMO FULL
Fans bob up and down in unison as if they are on the dance floor whilst House of Pain’s Jump Around is on full blast. Character models look fine but they are far from what a ‘next-gen’ version should be. This is not the visual showcase fans expected. In the final release, I fully expect traditional cameras to be available, but for now, you’re stuck with one camera angle. Due to the amount that the camera zooms in, it’s difficult to see runs and players in space which can result in wayward passes. Due to the dynamic camera that zooms in for one on one encounters, each movement is noticeable and is further enhanced by the lovely animation.Īlthough the dynamic camera has its benefits, there are certainly some issues. You can feint, shift and bypass players which was previously too difficult in the eFootball PES 2021 Season Update. Although this means the game plays at a slower pace, each movement and action feels deliberate giving a sense of strategy to each attack. Rather than the quick and fluid movement of FIFA, PES has focused on realism by adding weight to players which have been embellished in the latest iteration of the game.
