Best Games of November 2018, According to Metacritic
4) Football Manager 2019 – Metacritic Score: 86
The complexity of the Football Manager series can put quite a few people off, but it’s a testament to the quality of the changes that are made every season that it remains popular and critically well received.
There’s so much detail is the organisation systems, which allows you to control pretty much everything a real-world manager would be able to, that it’s possible to lose months to the game.
The tweaks that have been made to tactics, that see you be able to draw from real-world ideas that are used in the best league in the world, add even more depth. Making small changes to how your team is set up and seeing it play out successfully on the pitch is immensely satisfying.
Of course, it’s not always worth picking up Football Manager every year, due to the only incremental steps that are made, but Football Manager 2019 is the perfect iteration for anyone who’s wanted to get into the series or has been away for a couple of seasons.
