The other problem too is that 2k is so heavily monetized now that kids/teenagers no longer play the game. Back in the good ole days of 2k, the main demographics for the game were teenagers. But no parent is gonna give their kid $200 dollars for a virtual pay-to-win basketball game every year. So now the game has a niche fanbase of adults who keep the game afloat by spending $500 a year on 2k. AND they don’t have time to play and get better at the game, so they’re constantly selling and making the randoms experience god-awful. I promise you if teenagers played 2k again, it would raise the average skill level of the community because this fanbase is ass and toxic when it comes to this game
me and all my boys used to be on 2k for hours every single day , now none of us play 2k . I do miss going into rec with all 5 of us for hours on end but the game just isn't fun anymore ontop of costing so much money to even start
Honestly 2k started to fall off in terms of fun when they decided to focus on comp/sweats/cheesers/dribble gawds and nerf things to limit them instead of upping the defensive contact animations. They made dribbling harder, defensive anticipation means nothing in this game. Slow unresponsive gameplay.
Facts like this and the green only when this game has latency offline mode is ridiculous. They decided oh instead of making it fun and hitting a white from time to time to you hit nothing unless you’re perfect it’s kinda sad to me cause it’s a game with hella latency and other problems that mess with your timing. I think it’s why the rise of zens came on cause now you got guys who are tired of the small green windows and the constant changing of shot times and latency problems it’s a recipe for just wanting to throw my controller
VC, badges, takeover, boosts, and workouts ruined the game. Since all those things got added…. the community started focusing on everything but ejoying basketball
I been playing NBA games since TV Sports Basketball by Cinemaware. 2k supassed NBA Live in 2k3. 2k10 and 2k11 were peak [before micro transactions] and I stopped playing at 12 and came back for 23... Currently got 1.3k hours in 2k24 purely playing Solo REC Centre. But yeah, game is just at it's core a horrible experience without paying VC. I learnt how to play so I play as god intended and 60 overall that bitch in the REC center 😂
@@yscharsitynah if i’m on youtube i want longer content. if i want clips ill go to tiktok. im just sayin dont not make a long video just for that reason
I miss 2k14 😭 I’ve been playing since 2k10 ….2k24 broke me 💯 2k13,2k14,2k16,2k19,2k20 last gen 2k22 was decent next gen 2k23 was overwhelming but decent BUT ! 2k24 IS THE WORST 2k of all time I promise worst then 21 ! Worst then 18 ! Worst then 17 ! They need to go back to Arcadey game get away from this simulation style 💯💯💯
the game is actually really good if yall would give offline a chance. i literally only ever play myleauge and the game is in a really good state in my opinion
They got inflation in 2K
literally😂

I still don't understand how next gen 2k games your player moves slower, dribbling slower, and shooting random timing
Bro my favorite 2ks of all time is 2k16 and then 2k13.. idk why but those two games were extremely fun for me…
same here and 14 as well
12,13,14, and 16 are the best by far take me back pls
Even getting the game for free is a scam tbh it's annoying af. Good vid bro
LMAAAAOOOOOOOO appreciate it gang❤😂😂
13-16 were my favorite 2ks 🫡
Insane run they went on

they started changing the whole game for 1% of players since 2k16 lol

Can confirm 2k16 is top 2 not 2.
This is just tip of the iceberg Myteam situation is worse than my career
2k14-2k16 will forever be my favourite
how bro only got 129 subs? better than most 2k yters out there
Bro said smoove signed to a 2k 360 deal …….classic 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
What went wrong with 2K? What didn't go wrong?
2k19 was fire the last fire 1 though
2k22 next gen
My grinding spending 201 hours on 2k23 to get 92 overall and complete the whole story/ The Mf's who spend 200 bucks to get to level 92 💀
That 2k10 on the Wii hit different ngl 🤣💯.
I’m sayin💀😭💀
used to be in middle school talking about nba 2k17 dropping and how much fun it was gonna be

i only get on 2k nowadays just to play my league honestly
You touched on a lot on this video definitely should’ve been longer
i wanted to but the attention span these days... you kno how it goes
@@yscharsitynah if i’m on youtube i want longer content. if i want clips ill go to tiktok. im just sayin dont not make a long video just for that reason
I feel you tbh
I played since the 2k8 and I agree with all of what you’re saying
The only reason why I agree with the community part is because I went undercover ones are a Brown shirt 60 ovr and nobody wanted to play with me
2k19 was good but 2k13 was my favourite I think that was when you create a legend
Ive been rocking the brown shirt sweats ever since 19
My park I had to run 10000 miles just to find the park
I believe u will be a future big content creator
Appreciate that gang that’s what I strive to do❤️
it’s not nostalgia at all it’s literally everything else u talked about
Y did better than me, I got it when it was $10
Nah G 19 and 20 were solid 2ks. 19 probably top 3 for me
Nah fr f*ck 2k im done🤦🏿♂️(see y’all in September😔)
Nasty work
W VIDDD
its not we getting old bro the top 2k creators back then was in there 20s and way older then us now the game jus bad
2k was never meant to be "arcadey" you lost me there bruh.
Live was arcadey, 2k was the simulation experience.
Nothing but facts the 2K community is toxic ASF it’s at the level of Call of Duty and GTA V back in the day
2k fall out fr
2k16 goat park went dumbb
Best of all time
I would've watched the 20min video
2k 19 WAS NOT trash
Besides 2k22 next gen . 2k19 was there last peak 2k.
I miss 2k14 😭 I’ve been playing since 2k10 ….2k24 broke me 💯 2k13,2k14,2k16,2k19,2k20 last gen 2k22 was decent next gen 2k23 was overwhelming but decent BUT ! 2k24 IS THE WORST 2k of all time I promise worst then 21 ! Worst then 18 ! Worst then 17 ! They need to go back to Arcadey game get away from this simulation style 💯💯💯
pay to win is the future we're never getting those days back sadly
At least the music was good on 17.
MLB the show is going down hilll to
the game is actually really good if yall would give offline a chance. i literally only ever play myleauge and the game is in a really good state in my opinion
