Re: Which NBA 2k My Career was most enjoyable to you and why ?

I enjoyed 2k13 immensely. That was the only one I played last gen, so I'm going to default to that one. 16-19, I don't know if I've played more than a few games on purpose (excluding 17. I grinded 17 a lot for that "Grand Badge" thing. It just wasn't as enjoyable as 13 was)

But I still think my favorite career experience was 2k12. For some reason I couldn't get enough of it and I had a dynasty with the Charlotte Bobcats going and an all time rivalry against the OKC Thunder in multiple NBA finals. Tyrus Thomas was my sidekick and all-nba. I'll never forget the heartache after winning our 4th championship together, he decided he wanted his own team and signed with the Chicago Bulls. To this day it is by far the longest mycareer i've ever played and the only one I was able to reach the hall of fame in.
Oh i remember 2k17 on hall of fame where the AI literally stands there for 20 seconds on offense and does nothing. 17 had the worst AI ever

You end up on a mediocre franchise and you do great in the minors you might get called up by the end of the season. I had one year where it took over a year to get called up from the minors and was relegated to being a pinch hitter. My experience was personal and exclusive to me and I loved it.

I don't wanna be Freq (RIP Vic), Prez, don't ever wanna do the fresh squeeze celebration with Michael B Jordan, I'm not AI, a former DJ turned pro player.

I just want MyCareer to be my career and mine only.

yea that and meaningful choices. You'd think they would have gone deeper on that, too. Get the whole personality aspect to it. Get traded because you don't fit in with the fan base... remember stuff like "carry my luggage rook" and you'd be like hmm do I give in and be a punk or do I say naw and ruin chemistry, or dude being like YO WHY ARENT U PASSING ME THE BALL MORE? Stuff like that would really go a long way as well.



Now it's like pick your endorsements haha.



I mean, if they're gonna make it like an RPG, I think adding those sort of aspects are more interesting, but maybe they've done some research that that stuff doesn't interest people on average, to me... it does. Especially because it's like you get traded and you're like I get to go back vs the guy that bullied me as a rookie, oh yeah let's go.

Nba2k11 or NbaK12 i don't remember the year correctly. But it was rather realistic & native. After games there was a coach/manager who told you how you played or gave infos, also you had pre-draft interviews and meetings with teammates, vidoroom-analysis etc. it felt more immersive.

...I switched since NBA2K17/18 to MYGM mode and don't really play much MyCareer, because i don't like the direction they took with this mode....

Re: Which NBA 2k My Career was most enjoyable to you and why ?

The last gen MyCareers had some solid elements, but the mostly text based nature of them really didn't hold my interest long. I rather do my own little player lock word building in that case.

We are probably to the other extreme now, but I really enjoyed 2K16 as a complete package. The story, the gameplay was all really fun to play through.

The one with Freak! The story went from beginning to end. Every story since then just stopped out of nowhere and had no closure or explanation.

Also the Orange Juice one was kind of sus and just never went anywhere. Your girl comes over to your airplane hanger and wants to be friends. You break up and call your "boy" and tell him everything is all good now. I needed that to be explained... better yet I'm good.

For me it has to be either 2K11 or 2K12. Loved the grind of trying to make it in the NBA (Draft Combine, Draft, Summer League).
