NBA 2k just isn't bringing it anymore. Maybe I'm getting old but the games just don't have that charisma and passion inserted into the gameplay anymore. It's like they've taken all their heart and soul and stuffed it into all the Myplayer stuff. The last time I was impressed was with the announcement of NBA2k14 and the Phil Collins trailer. I have only been underwhelmed from that point on. The graphics fidelity, lighting, emotion, have taken steps backwards and once I got a taste of those graphics there was just no going back for me. If you think I'm making this up, search James Harden 2k14 and compare him to the recently released 2k16 screenshot.
The way they bring out info for this game is fine. But their focus is 90% on all the fluffy teenager stuff that makes them money. It's like this game is being made for 10 year old kids who purchase myteam coins and not the true sim heads. Oh but there's Da_Czar and Mike Wang and all the other guys who are in this for us! That's what you say, I feel their muzzle has been tightened and their interaction is way down. Instead of seeing more gameplay content because they're happy to show it off, it's like they do it now just to satisfy the few old heads still around making up the final 10% of their marketing campaign.
I cringe just thinking about the annoying 2k stream with Ronnie where they play exclusively in the park and talk about hair styles and clothing options. I loath the days when Gold pack this and Silver Pack that, Rare Edition here, rare edition there, are focal point in their discussions.
I just want my grassroots contender NBA 2K back. Fame has made my favorite game turn into a gold digger. No longer is she the cute innocent summer fling, now she's the used up, cakeface lady strutting her stuff all over Broadway.

Most accurate and prolly the best post I've ever seen on OS... starting to realize, not only do people in the outside world think older ages aren't for gaming but apparently gaming companies do as well lol...but for real I'm just still lost on how we got one of the most beautiful sports games ever on the OG xbox (NFL 2K5) and really, nothing compared to that seeing that it was on a far less powerful machine...and another thing I dislike, is seeing the WWE team make their game gorgeous in detail and lighting but then see NBA and go ehhhh
