I only care about a good MyGM mode :p

Since I didn't play 2K22, idk how it really was but everyone seemed to enjoy this mode coming back. What would you change to improve or would you rather them mostly leave it as is?

Universe Mode always felt like sandbox GM mode to me anyway, could easily merge them and have similar gameplay but have a sandbox option to not have to worry about ratings or money and stuff

-add triple threat option
- add more match types - handicap would be cool
- larger drafting pool that includes all 3 rosters by default

most of it is pretty great, I would just expand on the above and the existing ideas. It already does work pretty well but gets repetitive so also perhaps:
- negative bonus from repeating the same matches
-different ways to grow feuds as to not enable call out promo spamming

TEW has a crowd fatigue option where if you run the same match combo too often they start getting rating penalties, a lot of people hate it but I think it's a good one

For me add more titles. All you had was the mens and women’s titles at launch. Later patched in the tags(men and women) so we need the midcard titles. Let me edit the brands, titles on the brand, arenas, etc. which is why I wanna see it merged with Universe Mode. Like I was personally let down by the MyGM. Others enjoyed it and that’s fine, i just couldn’t get into it.

there has to be a balance. generally as a feud grows, the match quality gets better and better so if you have a hot feud you can spam the same matches for weeks and get 4+ stars so long as you keep them from being fatigued. it ends up where some weeks are a bit repetitive. doesn't need to be super punishing either just something that helps promote varied shows is always a plus for me. its not always great if its easy to break a game

yeah great point. you kind of get stuck with mid card blood feuds with no belts. its fun but adding stakes would be nicer

oh, more jobbers too. one of my favorite things was to sign a dirt cheap jobber, use a powerup card and push them to the moon. On one of my last games I had one of those jobber girls competing and winning the world title organically. was amazing

Like Chris said they can have a regular Universe also, but having GM Mode being able to have everything it does, plus a draft, ratings, and money would be nice. I’d love to be able to make factions, and really have a nice control over my brand. Would be fun as fuck.

I enjoy universe mode when it's not broken, which it has been for quite a while now, and I didn't get into the GM mode this year, so I really hope they remain separated.

I think the better option is having it where like this year you had two options with Universe Mode, keep those 2 and add GM Mode as the third. That way you get normal Universe Mode and GM Universe Mode. Everyone’s happy.

I just saw the video, the game looks exactly the same as last year sadly.
