I've been playing NBA 2k since 2k1, and the thing I've noticed is basically this: NBA 2k used to be made for fans of the game of NBA basketball. NBA 2k is now made for people who may or may not care about the game of NBA basketball, but who want to play the game competitively online while completely abandoning the simulation style gameplay. It's the difference between people who watch an NBA game for an entire 48 minutes and people who think it's all about what they see on the highlight reels.

I had 2k15 on the xbox 360 and they had skill points to upgrade your player in mycareer over vc and it was easier/fun. I think this is the 2k that started youtubers to make nba 2k rebuilds.

[@mjdf122]

You’re back in action with retro sports games I’m happy blessed to see and have all from 1980-Now what a life of gaming throughout the decades appreciate you my man

[@stopitvcs7993]

I think 2k went downhill once they started to add archetypes and builds into the game. I think that when 2K 15 was making my career they were way ahead of their time. We have people like Victor Bol and Kevin Durant that can kinda do anything on the court. it’s not a certain build or archetype that they have on the NBA floor because they can do everything. They are acting like people are going to use demigods all the time but there’s some people that just want to use Regular point guard, shooting guards and small forwards. If 2K wants to have a my career mode or my park that’s good, they need to take out archetypes and builds as a whole because at this point, everybody’s just gonna watch a KZbin video and copy a build instead of making their own because they know if they make their own it’s gonna have a lot of stimulations which isn’t realistic to the NBA today.

[@TheNewChevyRoll48]

Remember when you didn't have to green shots just to make them? 2K needs to bring that back. That and the impact on costs and revenue that were in the game when you chose to build your arena in the city vs in the suburbs.

[@smoovegaming1286]

I know most 2K players will just say “get better at the game” when you complain about having to green shots but that literally ruined the game for me. Makes it so much less enjoyable to the casual player and really shows how 2K completely shifted their focus to catering only to Esports/competitive players

[@willcfjackson5114]

⁠@@smoovegaming1286 even with the green only gameplay is still catered to casuals. It’s a skill gap. You would be upset if you put time into the game to be good, and lose to someone who didn’t based on RNG shooting. Take Cod for example, ppl would be upset if they lost a gunfight bc the game decided it was their turn to lose a gun fight. Im a casual. It takes literally a 3-5 minutes before you start playing to warmup your jumper. If you do that before every time u play you’ll be greening consistently in no time. That’s literally the bare minimum effort you have to put in to shoot consistently. That’s not catering to Esports in any way.

[@boxerm4n]

It’s back in 2k25 it’s a option

[@Cameo96_]

That green or miss was HORRIBLE. I bought 24 after years of not playing 2k and I was like wtf is this. And they had the nerve of making the green window small asl. That made me put the game down and not touch it after the first month. But I heard they made it optional in 2k25. Something that shouldnt have been changed in the first place.

[@codywood1295]

​@willcfjackson5114 in mycareer sure but myteam and myleague you'll have to know the jumpers of your current team. At least 6 or 7 of them. Most don't jumpshot w their centre's sure but that's a lot of jumpers for a casual.

We'll likely never see a run of classics like we did with 2K10-2K16. Like you said 2K now is just filled with too much worthless nonsense. Hopefully the death of the 2K League will allow 2K to focus on making the game more laid back from a gameplay standpoint. Now the gameplay feels like it was designed to cater to sweats who wanted to be pro players.

Now 100 dollars doesn't even max out one build (and thats without buying any clothes/shoes/accessories/tattoos/boosts etc....).

This was my first NBA 2K game I bought on PlayStation 4 (I have the first game on Dreamcast, NBA 2K3-2K6 on Xbox, 2K7-2K8 on Xbox 360 prior to getting 2K15 on PS4). The main reason I bought it is because it was released in the season that the San Francisco Warriors (who were then known as the Golden State Warriors when they were still based in Oakland) made it to the NBA Championship Series and won it. I was unhappy they removed playoff mode, but the gameplay and presentation is really great. I really enjoy this game.

What's up SoftDrink. Another excellent retrospective. I buy every NBA 2K game, just to see if it feels like basketball again in the modes that matter to me, such as MyCareer. Something happened to the gameplay, physics and player models from 2018 to modern day and they have yet to feel like actual basketball games. Now, I still play NBA 2K14 on PC the most, with some mods. However, when I went back to NBA 2K15-2K18, I noticed a sneaky little change that 2K made to those games to punish players who prefer the past entries and as a preview to their future greed: In MyCareer, you lose the ability to add any equipment to your MyPlayer such as headbands,kneepads/sleeves, arm sleeves etc. NBA 2K14 is the last NBA 2K game that allows players to simply add/edit accessories using the Edit Player option within MyCareer mode. It's impossible on the console versions of NBA 2K15-2K18 and on PC, my preferred way to play, we have to use Trainers/mods to add/edit the accessories. Just plain vile greedy behavior on behalf of 2K.

Love your content man! I just want to say there are and have been a small handful of yt content creators whose entire channel is based on crapping on Madden. While all of their complaints are valid, I cannot help but wonder if they rely on Madden sucking to make money from their channels. I say that to say this, you aren't that guy. I'm 44 and good at reading people(so I've been told), and to me, you come across genuine AF. You have made videos crapping on games, praising games, and being indifferent talking about the good and the bad. One thing I look to you and no other youtuber or person in the world for that matter, is to be the difference maker. Huge freaking task, I know, but if there's anyone I can put my faith in, it's you. The problem is known and has been known. EA is greedy and powerful and their method, while crappy for us consumers, works for them moneywise. I'm asking you, I am begging you, can you please focus more effort into solution oriented content to make a change? For example, it is an extremely slippery slope because the sheer # of angry consumers could make a difference if they bombarded EA/NFL with phone calls or emails or even physical protest, however if you tried to promote that on your channel, you'd risk losing your channel for promoting doxxing. I logged into my twitter account which means I had to click forget password, care enough to do all that, create a new password, just so I can tweet "bringbackNFL2k". That didn't feel like I made a difference and I doubt it did. We the people need to come together to really make an impact b/c these yt comments won't cut it. I want a good football game. You want one. We want one. WE deserve it. It's 2024 and sports games regress. With how fast technology advances, this should be unheard of when it comes to vidoe games. We need a change. I'm tired of complaining. I want...I Need.....WE NEED a solution. I urge you to look into things like finding out what public information you are allowed to share, who we can call or email to voice our opinions. Are you allowed to plant a seed that an indy developer could make a game where it's possible to download other people's uploaded rosters as a way to bypass licensing rights? Please do whatever you can because this time of year is always difficult because I always get the itch to play Madden but I'm so burnt out on the PS2 Madden's and 2k5 that I'm starting to lose interest in the real NFL b/c it's easier to not care about the NFL and not be let down every fall.

@SOFTDRINKTV You`re absolutely right with everything, but you forgot to mention one of the Things, that hurt me the most: If you play a 2k15 My Carreer Player these Days, you wont be able to upgrade the Special Skill Badges, because 2K replaced the VC for 2k15 with an Offline Currency, but obviously "forgot" to make Badge Upgrades achievable with it. So all you can get is Bronze, and unfortunately those Badges are not just an cosmetic Item. Also there are some Minor Bugs, like a weird Assist of the Game Replay, if the Game is running at more then 60 Hz.

NBA 2K15 was the first NBA 2K game I purchase. And even though I really do like it, I like NBA 2K16 even more and it's definitely the last great NBA 2K game. I like NBA 2K16 my league a lot more than 2K15 just for the fact that you can do a lot more when you factor in the level of customization. I still like 2K15 though

only reason i played the older years was because i liked making a 99 stat player and going through a season, id play when there was nothing else to do, the newer ones really screw over the solo type players like me, your created player doesnt even get the same features to build as the online/mywhatever modes.

Hey man can you do a Madden 25 retrospective (the original Madden 25 from 2014) I’ve been playing it a lot lately. It has a physics based engine.

I still play 2k15 mycarrer every day. Although the game has its glitches I enjoy the gameplay and how close to actual basketball it can feel when you perform a combination that leads to a basket and or hitting a tough shot. Or my favorite part which is having the opposing team hit tough shots on you. You start to feel like this is basketball and not a video game set up by developers to make it easier or impossible to win
