    The Kobe Era feels like the perfect blend of the old and new. Its not the 80s/90s where slow offense and plodding bigs dominated, but its not the wide open 3 point barrage of today's game. It's also the Era where my idealized version of videogame basketball came from. I think that's why I enjoy the Kobe Era as much as I do. 2K killed it with the Era specific gameplay.

    Interesting tidbit and common misconception: 80’s actually had some of the fastest pacing by decade (#2 to the 70’s which had insane 106.1 pacing) at 101.5. That’s even ahead of the 2020’s which is at 99.28. The Kobe era technically had the slowest total pacing at 91.3 for the 2000’s and 94.5 for the 2010’s.

      Being and living in Chicago I was a huge Bulls fan so I too spend most of my time reliving the 90s. My favorite season though was the 1995-1996 season as the Bulls went 72-10(first team to win 70+ games in the regular season) and became the greatest team off all-time by capping that off with an nba championship. I remember that year as “Bulls Mania.”

        What I'd really wish was Chris Webber was on the Kings. 1998-2006 is definitely a time I could play with any year between those rosters multiple times [emoji23].

          The real Chris Webber can be downloaded using player dna on Xbox Series X. Not sure about PS5.

                1998 is my favorite season ever with Live 98 being my favorite game until 2k11 came out for all the nostalgia. But it’s a real bummer them not having Toni Kukoc as a draft and stash player already on the 1992 Bulls roster. No clue why they took the euro stash out the game.

                  I'm probably just gonna trade this game in. I love 2k11 - around 40 years worth of complete season rosters. Sure, the graphics are a bit dated but I just can't get into 23 on my ps5. jumpers aren't falling and all i get are layups on the fast break and inside baskets. It's just not that much fun. And since you can't use user created rosters in the Eras Play Now it's kinda useless to me.

                    I know how it goes, as I’ve given up on a number of 2K’s in the past 10 years.

                    That said, it is very possible to tweak sliders in a way to hit the jumpers you want to hit this year. Sometimes I've found that lowering the difficulty then building up the sliders from there can be helpful.

                    I also might recommend custom rosters in a MyEra, that you can then just treat as your personal Play Now.

                      Man, dont give up. With all the possibilities and the classic teams added into 2k23, i cannot believe that you want to trade the game.
                      I struggled at the start just like you, but its what VDusen said: lowering the difficulty a bit and working on the sliders can make wonders, trust me.
                      And yeah, we dont have the custom roster option for MyEra quick game, but i highly recommend to use a MyEra custom roster in a season, control all the teams and just use it as your personal Play Now mode. :wink:

                            I think my eras is busted.

                            I’m seeing shots that aren’t dunks or 3s.

                            Why are dudes shooting from the middle part?

                              Man for a good work in progress roster than can get u back in the game check out my custom realistic roster. On PS5 search user name ARG__1 Let me know what u think but I think you’ll have some fun with it. I’ll be done later on when I customize all All-Time teams and finalize the historic rosters but I already hit a good chunk done.

                                I hear you, man.

                                I do like 2K23, but as always, It's a case of they give you some great stuff, but also take a chunk of existing great stuff away. The MyEra stuff is incredible, but the gameplay is lacking. Players just feel floaty, and there's not enough options in the edit section to differentiate players from one another, outside of appearance.

                                I tried to go back to 2k20, but because the servers are down, years of my work was lost and corrupted when I tried to load the game back up.

                                In a perfect world, I'd have the player customization of 2k16, (Shot/dribble packages) the gameplay of 2K20 and the sandbox MyEra mode from 2k23, all wrapped into one.

                                That would be my PERFECT game, right there.
