  1. The C-Verse doesn't really have an equivalent to WWF/E's Divas. Babes of Sin City comes closest to it so yea, I'd agree that Littlefeather is probably the closest you'd get for "picked for her looks, turned out to actually be a decent in-ring worker with tons of charisma".
  2. Maybe it's just me but I can't help but feel uncomfortable when athletes with clearly visible, serious injuries are working through them and risk further injury for something as trivial as a sports entertainment match.
  3. It is an improvement, but once an AI company can offer exclusive written contracts to lock down a worker (Medium size or above, I think?), they almost always will IME, and don't distinguish between foreign and local talent.

He's always had opinions. Honestly I feel ratings seem mostly intended to get people talking about a match than anything regarding "quality" which isn't really an objective thing to be measured anyway and is always going to be based on somebody's subjective opinion.</p>
  5. What's the point of non-exclusive written contracts? They don't seem to have any features that can't be replicated with handshake deals already.
  6. Unfortunately, with a new larger screen it's become a chore to play this game with its tiny, tiny resolution. I really wish they would just release a resolution patch, but then I guess fewer people would buy 2020...
  7. Not sure if you haven't figured this out by now, but when you click on a worker's name on the Roster screen, there's the Move Set button which you can click to bring up a menu. There, you can create, remove, or add moves to a worker's moveset, or even create entirely new movesets from scratch.
  8. What is it with people on this forum constantly trying to control the conversation and silence critical voices? I don't remember it being this bad in earlier years. Anyway, TEW2020 no longer has an "on hiatus" state. It seems that according to the new game mechanics, a worker is either in the business or out, and the people who are out will never come back at all, ever.
  9. One thing I've noticed when importing the old Thunderverse database is that the game tends to set most nonstandard products to "Classic Balanced". I've also had the mentioned problems with bad personalities. The biggest issue for me is that the new gimmick effects have to be put in manually into the contracts, or they just won't show up in the game, but this is less an issue with conversion and more an issue with the editor's interface. This would be great if we could filter workers by year in the business in the editor. Unfortunately, we can't, so you still have to enter these numbers manually, or trust the converter to do it for you.
  10. I remember that in 2016, a product with weight split on massively increased the AI's roster size targets, I wonder if that may still be a factor (although I'm not sure if AJPW would have a weight split, did they have a Junior division back then?)
  11. Specifically, wrestling fans who really enjoy poring over spreadsheets in VB. I'm sure those'll still be enough in numbers to tide GDS over until the next game. There aren't really any other wrestling management sims out there, so it's not like they have any kind of competition there.

Before 2016 made it explicit, it wasn't even widely known how a worker's wrestling ability influenced match ratings (or at least, people generally didn't tell you outright).</p><p> </p><p> Star Quality was enormously important if you played a national level company in 2016, as the SQ stat of your five most over workers directly affected your ratings in national battles. This is still important but IIRC only 50% factor into your total rating (the other 50% being the quality of your TV shows/events).</p>

It doesn't seem that the game distinguishes between touring deals and "regular" deals any more.</p>
