You can see the benefits of having 2K involved - a better presentation and decent integration of real-life tournaments in the game.
But I am surprised at some of the issues and things that I though 2K might help with more. Given 2K's reputation for publishing games with high-quality career/dynasty modes (like in the NBA 2K games), it's sad that the career mode in PGA 2K21 is lacking depth and is pretty glitched. Career Mode gets stale quickly, and loses all immersion when leaderboards change between rounds and "winners" of events randomly change.
I know I have talked about career mode quite a bit on this forum, but since HB or 2K have yet to even acknowledge the issues with the mode, I feel the need to keep mentioning it in hopes someone from the dev team will see it.
It also seems that HB and 2K might not be jiving together or something? I mean, no one from the HB team comments on this game anywhere - whether it's the 2K forums, which HB devs supposedly "joined" back in July but has never really posted anything, or HB's forums which are still active with 2K21 players, even though there isn't a specific forum for the game.
