they say only 5% play international management mode. I checked FM 23 achievements, 7.5% won the world cup, let's say half of those who played it, won. that's already 15% of all FM23 players, who played in the world cup. what if we add smaller nations, that do not qualify for the world cup? how do you get 5% SI? 1. no one will pay international management from the start, because it is so bad and has been neglected for years with 0 development 2. since most players start with club management first, it is only those who play long term saves, can engage with international management and only minority of FM players are playing long enough to be offered an international job it is easy to manipulate statistics, to support your point, rather than admit that you have no talent and skill to make international football work within your new or most likely updated code

Just bought FM23 and after checking global achievements, I am surprised how easy this game can be According to Steam achievements nearly 1 in 3 players had a 30 matches unbeaten run it is mad, especially knowing how difficult it is in real life. For example, in 21st century only 5 clubs from Europe's Top 5 leagues managed to do it. Arsenal (2 times), Chelsea, Liverpool, Man City and Juventus.

I don't get the licensing argument. Don't they have more than a dozen of licensed leagues and a number of individual club licences, are stadiums not included in those licences? I am sure if they wanted to create stadiums they could do it https://www.footballmanager.com/news/football-manager-2023-licences

checked steam achievements, it seems game is easier now, than it was 5 years ago. look at achievements of FM22 compared to10 year average 1. more users have long winning streaks, undefeated in 20 - 30 matches 2. it is easier to get overachiever medal or win manager of the month on other hand, longevity achievements were down on FM22. Based on that, SI made their game easier, but game is less "sticky". Players have shorter saves But hey, they beat sales records every year...so no worries here
