EASFC Launch Reaction
We've all been here before but that doesn't stop us getting a little bit excited of what the BRAND NEW EASFC game will have in store, but seeing as we've seen all of 4 seconds of game play, we'll stick with the @ChrisyBullard position of reserving judgement until the first Weekend League.
We do go into some depth about what we do know form the trailers and the launch event from this week and debate some of the main talking points. Not forgetting the current game we also discuss the level up promo and if it is right or this point in the cycle.
