Let’s just assume you are a professional footballer playing in one of the most competitive leagues in the world and there’s a video game about Football that comes out every year with you in it. You would probably feel excited to check yourself out – stats, looks, and whatnot, it’s only normal.
But imagine, if you are Franck Ribery, and you see yourself looking like this while playing EA’s latest FIFA 20 with your kids…
Amused after seeing his own character in FIFA 20, the former Bayern Munich star quickly took it to his twitter account to take a jab at EA for their poorly done character modeling that didn’t resemble anything like him at all.
Played #FIFA20 with my kids not long ago. ?
Hey @EASPORTSFIFA…Who is this guy? ??? pic.twitter.com/fjCBjO4FOx— Franck Ribéry (@FranckRibery) October 17, 2019
To make things more embarrassing for EA, its nemesis – Konami’s Pro Evolution Soccer official twitter account jumped on the opportunity to rub salt into EA’s wounded ego with a clever tweet adding to Franck’s earlier jab.
While it can be easily remedied by EA if they want to, there’s no confirmation yet at this point if they would. They really should though.
Well, Franck, at least yours is a video game character model problem. It’s easy to fix. Christiano had it worse…
