* Football Manager 2024
https://store.epicgames.com/en-US/p/football-manager-2024


I don't actually like football, so the game sounds very slightly more
interesting to me than an actual virtual football game.

Isn't that exactly the mentality behind all these fantasy football
leagues?


Footie management games just hide the spreadsheet aspects of
fantasy-sports behind some glossier visuals.

Although I think one of the draws to 'real' fantasy football was that
there was often an optional gambling mechanic behind it, where people
would pit their teams against others. I'm not sure Football Manager
2024 has that feature ;-)

You forgot the opportunity for smugness when your team trounces your
friends/bosses/etc's team.

Most likely also missing from the game.

Maybe it's just me, but fantasy sports gamers always seemed smug
/regardless/ of whether their team was winning or not. Like the very
fact that they were managing a fantasy sports team somehow made their
hobby superior to anything else people might be playing.

I always wanted to go up to them and say, "It's fuckin' D&D for
sports. You're as much of a nerd as the rest of us!" ;-)
