It depends. I feel like I may have said this a few pages ago but maybe not. Jordan has his signature dunks but not a lot of the stuff that we lost back around 2K13. I feel like there weren't many, if any, signature crossovers and post fadeaways as a whole (current and classic) look a little weirder than they used to (almost like they're hunched or something).

That said, a lot of signature jumpshots, dunks, and celebrations are on point.

Just never liked the way the game played in 17 and 18. The feel of it was 'off' for me. Unless that changes this year, I'll continue on with 2k16, even if they throw more legends at us.

It's amazing that 2k gave us more teams and players last year of the retro variety but they just started to feel generic. They look great, but there's no real separation between a Tim Hardaway or a John Stockton in terms of signature style.

2k11 and 12 set a precedent for the legends and perhaps spoiled me a little too much. I've seen what 2k can do, but we've never seen that level of commitment to the legends since.

I'll keep my fingers crossed that something will rear its head this year to get me hooked in again.

Bro, I feel you. I couldn't even get addicted to 18 because as you have mentioned the classics really felt generic. I just hope they bring back era filters and rule changes that are appropriate for each eras even if we don't get any new classic teams.
