Yep, this time last year all the youtubers were yelling about how much more
fluid the game is. Fluid fluid fluid fluid. Fluid this fluid that.
After the 1st patch fluidity was exactly what the game lacked. Ball movement and defense was sluggish, not fluid.
I don't pay attention to any of the hype from youtuber community. I get that they're excited to be involved with 2k, but they're mostly trying to give 2k as much props as they can so that they can get invited back the next year. Not a reliable source of impressions imo. They're brought in by 2k to hype the game, not because they have a deep understanding of basketball
