That's a personal opinion. Many others can see massive advances in gameplay. No; you're wrong. No series has developed their franchise mode as much as 2K has. Every game is finding ways to monetise; it's video games now. But don't pretend there is a huge amount of 2K that can be enjoyed without monetisation. If you've read this forum any time between 1 and 6 months after release of every 2K game in the last decade, you will know people can express their opinions on the game. As they can on FB and twitter. What accountability do you suggest?

Of course I mentioned the guys in the video...the post is about the video. If anyone thinks I'm that dumb then they're dumber than they think I am. I truly don't feel like qualifying every single thing I write by diatribing about every single fact I know. Thanks for the heads up, guys!! I had no idea that 2K have tenured staff with a wealth of experience. Wow, I'm so surprised!

You and I have disagreed in the past about the quality of the game and I don't expect your opinion has changed. I mean for a while there you were complaining about how long it took for plays to develop due to the physicality (fouls for those of us who aren't delusional and actually know basketball and understand physics) and then you just switched your stance on the subject. I find that ridiculous, but I actually like real basketball and real physics.

MLB The Show made huge leaps this year in their career mode, so I guess if I think it's more of an advancement than 2K's that makes you wrong too?

2K is garbage if you're looking for an NBA simulation that is largely based around real world physics in my opinion. The thing is I base my opinion on facts. Everyone is entitled to like or dislike things, but don't try to tell me that 2K is realistic or that they don't focus on monetization as opposed to offline realistic gameplay.

Again, to anyone pointing out that 2K have more staff than the guys in the video and that I'm dumb for thinking I didn't know that - I know. I knew when I wrote my first post. I'll know tomorrow. Defend your beloved heap of garbage game with another argument because that one is hollow. Also realize that if I didn't know and just learned that tasty little tidbit of knowledge - it only makes my points carry more weight. The fact that guys with so much experience can't produce a game that's realistic does not bode well for them. Hell, even after all these years they can't even keep their servers stable. Some people can't even get their super awesome game to get passed the Paul George load screen. Amazing software development!
