I dont know if Fifa has the option, but you dont play Fifa ONLY to create team representative T-shirts , as example, you play Fifa for the football.
Thats my reasoning, if someone is having fun creating T-shirts in WoW (Pet Battles/PvP/just questing/Transmog/Gold making) or whatever else they are doing, good for them, but they arent playing the game for its purpose.
Thats why there are categories of players, people that play the game correctly and people that dont, are they having fun? Good for them, but its irrelevant when discussing these type of things.
Its the same for me in FPS games, i play decently because i play games for 20 years, but i dont care to know every curve, every weapon recoil, every single grenade throw position, because i am only playing for fun.
But all hell breaks looks when my buddies slack in a M+ we have been doing for 2 years in a +18 or up as example because he didnt feel like interrupting or when my raiders didnt feel like doing mechanics because PEW PEW CLEAVE EVERYTHING FUN MODE and we end up wiping on something we killed 15 times before.
So, in FPS games, i am a C spectrum of my example.
