Discussing MyGM: Interview with Producer Erick Boenisch

And a post of his from the OS forums:

For those curious about MyGM mode, know this. I only covered about 5% of what this mode is at the press event. This was a bigger media event, one where a large number of the attendees aren't exactly highly interested in the meat and potatoes of a mode like this. I simply provided an overview of what our philosophy was.

We'll be going into MUCH more detail (you know I will take care of you guys here) on what we've done in the coming weeks, so stay tuned.

The takeaway you should have right now is MyGM is Association on steroids. Multi-user had to take a backseat for a minute while we rebuilt the entire foundation of how a franchise mode works. I assure you, this is all for the greater good. Leftos and I will make sure you're all happy at the end of the day.

P.S. For those who aren't into the concept of interacting with staff, players, etc., a Season mode (with variable season lengths) IS available so you can just focus on playing games and moving players around where you see fit.

This sounds interesting. I'm intrigued and look forward to being more immersed in the GM role. My initial thoughts were uhm...not sure if like.

But from the sounds of it I think it's something I have sort of wanted, I think Football Manager Pro or something like that was that immersive and if that's the direction 2K is going in, I'm on board.

Never let someone tell you what your takeaway should be.

The mode sounds like a good one. But are the bugs/problems from past association fixed? That's my takeaway. It's that question.
