WWE 2K17: Universe Mode Info Roundtable

Love the choice to go to 3d models. Just makes everything look more official. CAW's won't look out of place that's a big thing for me.

Reed is comin' atcha!

I'm excited about the Promos. I'm just worried about how many of them we go through before they start to feel like a repetitive mini game.

Universe provides no context. It's just a sandbox and with no goal whatsoever, it feels like busywork. It needs to bring the ratings back from the 3rd gen versions or something.

When they first introduced the mode for Smackdown vs Raw 2011 it was marketed as a dynamic never ending Universe that as you said provided no real goal or endgame. I think in recent years they have seen it more as a vehicle to enhance the creation suite since every year that portion of the mode seems to garner much more of the development time and dedication. There are still many issues in the mode that have been around for years that probably will never be solved such as the poor AI booking.
