Re: Everything We Learned About WWE 2K23's MyRise and MyFaction
Their answer for why MyFaction models aren't unlocked for use outside the mode doesn't make sense. I mean, it does in theory but not in practice. The vast majority of exclusive models they added were more or less alternate attires. They would not need to record commentary, animate new entrances, get new music/entrance video, victory animations, etc. to make those viable for use outside MyFaction.
I can only think of 3 entirely new characters that were locked to MyFaction (there might've been more, the mode didn't hook me enough to play far) - Godfather, Faarooq 98, and Dude Love - and all of those had commentary, animations, etc when members of the community found ways to upload them. The content was all there.
2K's explanation only really even kind of holds up for those Origins series cards where you'd get an NXT version of Seth Rollins, Roman Reigns, Bayley, etc. Those are sometimes drastic differences in character. But if it came down to not having the alternates available or having them but commentary talks about their 2023 selves?...I think we know which option the community would choose. Come on.
The mode itself should be interesting enough to draw players. They shouldn't have to lock content behind it to use as a selling point.
