What was FIFA 15’s system for showing players’ changing emotions during matches called?

The story behind the answer

FIFA 15 introduced Emotional Intelligence to represent players’ changing reactions during matches.

The system gave footballers a wider range of visible responses to events such as missed chances, conceded goals, hard tackles, and successful plays. A player could appear frustrated, angry, encouraged, or excited, helping the match presentation feel more connected to what had just happened on the pitch.

Emotional Intelligence was a presentation and atmosphere feature rather than a separate game mode. It is sometimes confused with FIFA 11’s Personality+, which was designed to differentiate players through attributes and styles, or with FIFA 15’s improved goalkeeper behavior. The feature formed part of EA Sports’ effort to make FIFA 15 feel more dramatic and reactive without changing the basic rules of football.
