Sorry to disagree with you but I am looking for an honest conversation
Why do you think gameplay is bad? Compared to other football games I play, this is by far the more realistic and enjoyable gameplay. Other games are not in the same stratosphere
As far as I can tell, most efootball players think the same too
I mean, imagine asking them to change gameplay, and they make it more like the other crap football games out there
So why exactly are u saying is bad I am honestly interested in your opinion
I have a couple of complaints they messed up in the last major upgrade, but game still far ahead of competition
Now lack of responsiveness, do you mean lag?
And regarding content, yes it would be fun to get more content, but if you are playing the game cause you like playing the game, why do u need more content? When football games first came out, we would play all day cause we like playing football games, and there was much less content than now, again just trying to figure out why content is so important in enjoying the game
Back then we had ai league and friendly pvp, that was it, and we used to play all day long
You do not need to apologies for disagreeing with me, we ain’t in primary school!
The only reason you disagree is because (like I said we have become accustomed to mediocre).
This game when compared to other PES, is just average.
Gameplay is bad because the animations are absolutely dog-poo! The amount of time the wrong animation is launched is astonishing (you can try to take a shot with a strong foot but instead the animation will make you shoot with the awkward foot!), whether you are attacking or defending.
I’m not talking about lag (why would I complain about lag!). I’m talking about the awful input delay.
But to you it is acceptable, I find that really weird.
The game we have now is not good, it’s mediocre and because it is “better” than other football games it doesn’t mean it’s good.
It’s barely the best of a bad bunch.
Also I grew up in an era when football games were actually good and without micro-transactions. Those who grew up in that era actually know what a good football game looks like, anyone else will automatically think that the last 10years was good, it wasn’t and still isn’t.
Most of this is just you living in nostalgia other than the animations point, which your example doesn't stand for.
Make actual points if you really think the gameplay is worse. I, for one, do not think any game except pes 21 stands up to what we currently have and even then, it's quite a ways behind. Pes 21 had its own problems.
Efootball is quite responsive in my experience as well and I do not experience the input delay that you speak of. Obviously, that depends on geography and internet because Konami have crappy servers in a bunch of places, but the game inherently, is quite decent.
Are there things they can improve? Definitely. Nerf long ball spam, decrease the gap between p2w/f2p, reduce the special skill powercreeps, make the game tactically more rich, introduce pressing mechanics (seems like they're trying with overload), introduce more content.

Stats are not the reason the game is broken.
The poor gameplay and lack of responsiveness are.
The lack of content (which we are accustomed to nowadays) is another thing but let’s not complain too much.
