MLB The Show 23: Best Difficulty and Gameplay Style to Select | Push Square

pushsquare.com:

What's the best difficulty and gameplay style to select in MLB The Show 23? Difficulty is an incredibly subjective subject, as it really depends what you're aiming to get out of the game. In the case of MLB The Show 23, the release is highly flexible, meaning you're free to enjoy either a casual, laidback arcade-style experience — or a highly competitive one. While it very much depends on personal preferences, as part of our MLB The Show 23 guide, we're going to make some suggestions on the best difficulty and gameplay style to select.

In MLB The Show 23, you'll be introduced to three gameplay styles when you first load up the game, and you can toggle between these from the Settings menu at any time you choose. They are as follows:

Depending upon which gameplay style you select, the game will be tuned accordingly. It's important to note that gameplay style is independent to difficulty, and therefore we'd recommend you select Competitive as this is the standard automatically adopted in Diamond Dynasty, including in single player modes like Conquest and Mini Seasons. Unless you're planning to spend the entirety of your time offline, in Road to the Show and Franchise, it's best to acclimatise yourself to the Competitive settings across all tiers of play.

Meanwhile, you can independently choose your Hitting Difficulty and Pitching Difficulty, so you can make one aspect of the game harder than the other in offline modes. The following difficulties are available:

If you're completely new to the game, then we'd recommend you start out with Dynamic, as this will default to the Beginner option and increase depending on your performance. While the game may start out quite easy, you'll quickly advance to the higher difficulties
