Re: Total game breakers in YOUR opinion?

If MyCareer keeps going down the path of completely abandoning its sim roots and becomes a glorified B movie drama where you're forced to listen to the cheesiest, most cliche ridden dialogue ever written and inevitably become the next coming of Michael Jordan by the end of your rookie year.

Also regardless of the story we absolutely cannot have some of the atrocious NBA player voice acting performances we got last year, it sounds like they didn't even try and kills immersion

I stopped playing that mode a lone time ago. There was too much crying for faster progression and that has led to a lot of the stuff people complain about today. I'm a BIG RPG fan, and I was hoping this mode would go that route, but it didn't.

Now this is unfair. Not everyone is a professional actor. Of COURSE if you want the real NBA voices, you are going to sacrifice the "acting". NBA players are NOT actors and acting is not easy. Lying maybe, but not acting.

Sorry to quote you in back-to-back posts, not trying to shadow ya, hah. I feel you on the super progression complaint. I think I would have preferred better simulation options more than a one year fast track to Jordandom. I'm not sure any of us have come up with a real deal solution to that issue though, aside from selecting beforehand from "Slow ascent", "Medium", and "Immediate star". Have other sports games gone that route? It'd seem a little unnatural in theory, as opposed to feeling as though I was in control.

Was going to say the same thing. The voice acting is undeniably brutal at a lot of points, but with 2K's current MyPlayer setup (the awful storylines and contrived drama), they don't really have a choice. I remember the muted players looking super ridiculous in 2K14 so in response, 2K tried to step it up with real player voices. It was a logical and respectable move in a lot of regards. Unfortunately, when one asks Al Jefferson to partake in a soap opera, there's going to be repercussions.
