With all the cheese, players not playing like themselves, etc the fact that court brightness and muscle definition are what get talked about the most is insane

Most certainly a mod.. The minute I saw T-Mac I knew that. He hasn't looked that good in 2k in a long time.

It's 100% a mod. It's even linked to in the description of the video.

i agree about 2k14 current gen being the best looking 2k ever

2k14 probably had 20% - 30% of the content that is now in 2k18(had less modes, considerably less teams, etc). I'm no dev but I'm guessing all that content taking up space gives them less resources to work with. I don't think 2k14 has a chance to look like it does if it had all of 2k18's content..

The sad thing is though, we'll probably never know whether it's truly limitations or something else going on with the art team. Communication is key...

True Cavs but based on how many people on here, youtube, etc. have said that 2k14 in certain areas looks better than 2k15-18 you would think they would just go back to that style. There must be a reason why they have not.
