The Dream has his own go to shot
It's weird and I love it.

That’s dope. That might be the only legend’s signature addition this game or have you found more in go to shots etc.? I’m still stewing that they removed so many legend’s mocap dribble styles. Makes me think that eventually 2K will be exclusively proplay and remove all mocap, and if that happens one has to wonder if they plan for there to be tech by then that allows some sort of proplay spinoff to give to the legends.

It’s kind of an ignorance is bliss situation. Without proplay, all the current and historic players feel of the same quality. But with proplay, playing as historic players literally feels like playing an older game (cause essentially it is).

Maybe, I'm optimistic and ready to see if things change soon because we're in the 5th or 6th year of the new tech cycle. Usually changes up every 6-7 years. I just hope when the consoles after the XSX/PS5, we don't get much of a drawn out tease of actual gameplay advancement. We already know the graphics and ray tracing gonna be super good. It'd be ashamed if players have the same arguments come 2K26-2K30.

some/most defenders still move like they're place holders/reference for the offensive moves/animations. hope going forward they get a little more "life" to them. contest are still a hair slower than they should be.
