Since about 2K18 I have found it increasingly difficult to enjoy this game but this year I think they finally got me. I just quit in the middle of a park game and I legit don't know if I'll turn 2K21 back on. I've had the game a month. One month.
This is what the FOURTH year in a row where the Park/Rec is filled with guards and "shot creators" spamming whatever new unrealistic OP dribble move someone found behind screens and launching 3s? Y'all STILL haven't balanced that out? Mind you, it's not even me getting wrecked as I'm usually guarding the off-ball guard hugging the corner. It's so BORING. Not to mention how painful it is to try and play the Park when you're by yourself, wandering around and jumping from park to park for 15-20 minutes a time trying to get into just one game even though you know it's gonna be the same old boring s***.
Tried to play a rec game before I went into the park. Played with a PG that drove into the hoop every single time. No matter what, no matter who was open, despite the fact that he was 1/6 then 2/11 then 4/18...just kept going in there. The PF, a "slashing four", launched about 4 3-pointers and I'm pretty sure he had no 3-point shot. Not to mention the opposing PF caught about 12 or so lobs (not exaggerating) right over his head. No IQ, no adjustments, no anything. I had to start taking the risk of leaving my guy open to break up some of the passes for him. Why do these people even play rec? Why do I lose every Rec game I play despite averaging an A teammate grade?
Play Now Online-when I can even get in a game without disconnecting-is filled with Lakers/Bucks users barreling into the paint. I've got a good win% but it's so BORING, I don't even want to play another game.
MyLeague would be fun but I don't even want to take the time to fix 2K's garbage default rosters filled with incorrect jumpshots, ridiculously lazy tendencies, etc. Haven't found a roster I like yet.
Like *******. I've bought every single 2K since 2K8 but it's like I've forgotten how to enjoy this game. Everything just annoys me and pisses me off. I think I'm finally done tolerating 2K's BS. When I do set aside some time to play some video games, I want to you know...have fun. Not stress out, wander around empty parks, be dragged down by dumb teammates, get disconnected from games. My patience is all gone.
And yes, I have lost interest in video games as I've grown up and don't have nearly as much time to play. But that time USED to be for playing 2K. But they've broken the game so much that I literally instantly regret even loading 2K21 up, already anticipating all the BS to come. It's honestly sad to see my favorite franchise, a game I've been playing annually since I was 12 with freakin' Chris Paul on the cover, become a franchise I've grown so tired of.
Anyways, this was a random rant but I do have a question. HOW do I enjoy playing 2K21? Like am I the only one out here struggling to have fun with this game? Help me.
