Plus you'd have to think that the settings are turned up to make it easier to play for people, once the gameplay gets tweaked it'll probably be a lot better.

The atmosphere does look a lot more alive which will be a nice touch
On this note...I haven't played since '13 and here are the differences I caught:
- Maybe it's the angle, but the puck on the first shot (0:20) seemed to bounce a bit more. Goalies seem to have reduced rebound control compared to the default in other games.
- Lots of puck bobbles. Many of the passes required an extra touch or two to control. If you really turned down puck control in NHL 13 (I had mine always set at either 1 or 0 ticks above the minimum), you'd get a bit of that but it looks like it's in the default setting now..
- The puck also seems to change its motion a lot more and seems overall more dynamic with the environment its in..
- Ludicrous goalie passing at 0:39

Probably is a buy for me if this is indicative of 360 play. After skipping out on 14 the adjustments look pretty good so far. Finally fights can stop being spamming the punch button as fast as you can.
