The difference is that they have a following and all of the rest of us don't... Come on now... Stop acting like y'all don't know how this whole thing goes... Clout and noteriety has always been the driving force to influence anything... ESPECIALLY in this social media era... Instead of whining about them listening to 2k YouTubers you should be worried about them listening to the RIGHT ones... 2k at the end of the day is trying to promote their product and since most people follow and watch these YouTubers they are clearly gonna have some sway on how the game goes... Let's act like we have some sense here

Re: 2k Please stop getting game feedback from youtubers

As someone who’s been watching 2K YouTube and been looking either as a member or lurker on OS for almost a decade now, I can say I completely disagree with not inviting youtubers. Some of them don’t need to be invited true, but guys like Smoove, Shake, Mazique etc. those guys are worthy of an invite and giving feedback. Those guys and others have shown they aren’t swayed by popular opinion and they have their own minds.

Also 2K still does what they want but community feedback from trustworthy sources is always, always helpful.

This. Part of the problem is people tweet at the 2k devs crying because they can’t cheese the game so they switch things to appease the whiners.

This whole thread should be about not listening to whiny randoms on Twitter... There are plenty of 2k YouTubers that got invited that actually care about all of us getting a good game and they offer good critiques... Hell I applaud 2k for even inviting Smoove because he was the main one ripping 2k18 and 2k17 a new one... That's a good sign... It shows they aren't as scared of critiques as people claim them to be... If they listen to the right YouTubers the game would be phenomenal... And let's not act like 2k is known for listening to feedback anyway outside of some regular Joe crybaby crying because he can't speed boost

My thing is look at "who" your taking suggestions from i dont even mind if its a youtuber but at least let it be an OG 2k youtuber who has been around awhile.. IPOD, shakedown, smoove etc etc. Not the random dudes who blew up 2 years ago off of playing park mode and you assume they are now experts at the game because they get twitch views.

exactly this is where i was trying to go with it certain youtubers are actually legit and deserve to be heard out... others are toxic and will tell you things that will only benefit how they and there friends play in a specific mode. i probably should of been a little more detailed in my original post.

It’s all marketing... I agree and respect the 3 guys you named. As long as they weed out and know where to get the feedback from and where not from. It sounded like mazique and smoove got a 2nd day and with the devs that were not there on the 1st night so sounds like they get it...
