While these graphics aren’t at the level of MLB the Show 20, these improvements made me jump into more games than I did in OOTP 20.
OOTP 21 offers some new improvements to playing games namely, new 3D camera angles have been included. The amount of time and energy you want to devote to any one thing is up to you and the AI will help you out for the most part (more on the AI later). Every screen has tools to optimize your experience, whether it be sorting your players by on-base percentage or scouting prospects for the upcoming draft. The AI can do as much or as little as you’d like, so if you need some time to ease into the depths of baseball management, let the AI help you out. If you decide not to get too deep into things like farm team management or hiring staff, you can set the AI to do that.
You can do this for every screen and menu you go through, so if you are an organization buff, go nuts! Also, the new menus and UI are as sleek as ever. I tend to sit in the Manager’s screen a lot, so I was able to set it up to get a glimpse of all aspects of my team that felt relevant for day-to-day operations. You can keep track of everything from team finances and roster moves to hiring/firing your rookie league team manager, so you’ll need to put your organizational skills to work to get everything setup to your liking. We’ll have to wait to see how this will work with the season on hold.īecause there are so many things you can do with your team in OOTP 21, heavy customization of each of your menu screens has been updated. Returning from last year is the ability to “Live Start” from the exact day in season, so you could start your play through to be up-to-date with your favorite team’s record and recent transactions. Since I am a real life fan of the Tampa Bay Rays, I loaded the team in Challenge mode (ie, achievements enabled and no commissioner abilities) to take the current roster and supremely talented farm system out for a spin. There are also historical leagues that you can play spanning back to the inception of the game in 1871. In OOTP 21 you assume the role of manager/GM of your favorite baseball team, whether it be MLB or any of the 15 international leagues available, complete with real rosters and minor leagues (if available). With the 2020 MLB season hold, there’s no better time to jump into the newest offering of OOTP 21. I only just discovered OOTP when I grabbed OOTP 19 during a Steam sale and was blown away by the depth that these games offer. One of those games is Out of the Park Baseball 21, the latest iteration of the premier baseball sim manager. Prior to the start of the MLB season we are fortunate to get two quality baseball games to hold us over until Opening Day.
