After this update, I feel that the gameplay is faster. It's not bad, I ended up liking it. However, the fouls are still almost inexistent (I play of matches, in superstar difficulty, which end up with 1-2 fouls, or even 0).
Konami already has better gameplay than FIFA (in my opinion, and no, I am not a FIFA hater, I like it too). They make good graphics and great face scans. Now, they only need to work on adding more stadiums and leagues. Even if fake/generic, people could edit them. I hope Konami focus on off-pitch improvements on PES 2019, since they already have a good gameplay. They just need to fix the lack of fouls and add the "hand on ball" fouls (the ball usually just goes through the arm/hand so you don't have that kind of fouls in the game).
