Now that the game is out for early release, let's discuss it here.
I have been playing 2K23 for a few hours...I am weak...and to me, there are some good things and some not so good things.
On the good side, the gameplay is good. Plays well. It does look better than 2K21 visually in most ways. It's fun to play with the pros and all that. I have been playing on Pro difficulty to get used to the swing. Had a round in the Q School Final, where I won the event and shot -6. Then, played a Korn Ferry Event at TPC Sawgrass and shot a 77.
On the bad side, on PS4, the game seems very laggy and stutters a lot. I also have an issue where I cannot switch out the look of my pitching wedge no matter what I do. I also didn't get the 1300 VC I was supposed to get with the pre-order. Played one round of Topgolf and I think I am good with rarely hopping back into it...just kind of "meh" and gets old quick (good thing it takes like 5 min. to play a round then).
Lastly, there's a lot of "I've seen this before" to me...while the game does look better, and there are some new wrinkles, the whole package feels very much like the past 2K/HB golf games. In some ways, that's great. In others, not so much.
I haven't dabbled in the designer, the fittings, the consumable golf balls, or used any of the Skill points yet. I think I will have fun with the game, but I am not blown away at this point. I know a Day 1 patch is coming on Oct. 14, so we'll see what that fixes/tweaks/updates.
