I've bought the new NHL on release every year since probably NHL 12, and at this point I'm likely skipping 26, or at least waiting until it's heavily discounted.

I was a day one, or earlier, buyer up since NHLPA '93 (I only rented the original NHL Hockey as I was only 14 and mostly rented games at that age) until a couple of years ago. The game got so bad that I haven't bothered the last few years. I think it was last year it came out on PS Plus, or was super cheap....I played maybe three games.
Too bad. It was THE game I played for 2+ decades.
