Yes, they leaned a bit hard into the “you can make anything you want” hype, but again, they gave everyone 2 weeks to decide for themselves what the game is before they spent a dime on it. If that’s a finesse, it’s the worst finesse ever. If anyone believed they were going to make a 100% accurate Lebron or Kobe build and bring it online they were fooling themselves. No one wants that. Not 2K, and not the people that play park/rec every day. Can’t have thousands of player builds out there with no weaknesses. They were never gonna allow that.

You know what they could've done? Just not echo chambered the hype. NDA be damned, you can talk about what they let you and just not repeat the same buzz phrase.

Yes, I'm aware they won't let you make a player with no weakness. I've never been one to ask for that, and never cared that they didn't. However, you certainly can't do what they said, which is "make a build how you really want". I'm not asking for Kobe, or Harden, or Curry, or LeBron. But hell, I'd settle for an athletic PF that could run the floor well and rebound. How about a decent post build?

Like, I get checks and balances, but if I want to put all my points in handles, finishing, and shooting and throw defense out the window I should be able to. Or a guy who's low 80s/high 70s in every facet, just a utility guy?

Yes, you will always get the min max people. I'm not going to act like I wasn't think about how to optimize my skills, but that's it. I want to be able to cater to my personal skills.

I'll probably be able to finagle something with badge selection, but this is a pure bait and switch.
