I need that experience again. Seeing the trailer, especially loading up the game for the first time. I never thought a basketball game could look so realistic and MyCareer was so fun
Matt M. Bruh 🤦🏽♂️ hell no. How do you expect the game to get better if you want them to just go backwards? What you typed would not make a perfect 2k AT ALL
I think they just didn't want go past what they did for 2K14's graphics or else they would've peaked, and the PS5 graphics wouldn't have made much of a leap compared to what they did on the previous generation.
Or if you remember 2k14 had virtually no features. It had park, MyGM and MyCareer because all processing power was used on graphics. When they added new features graphics had to be scaled back.
Dumb conspiracy, why would they make the graphics worse for 6 straight years and possibly sell less just for one year of increased sales? It doesn't make sense
What sells these graphics to me is that the players actually look like real people proportion wise, nowadays it looks like you're playing with action figures of the players, i don't know if it has something to so with the simulated focal lenght or the player models or a combination of both but this game had that aspect 100% nailed
Man, I remember when the PS4 first came out and I seen the trailer for 2K14 and I was blown tf away. The hype just isn’t the same as the new 2k and PS5
NBA 2k14 was the first game I got for PS4. I loved it, spent hours playing the game and got completely immersed in mycareer. To this day 2k14 is my favorite on the current gen. It’s my one of my favorite 2ks ever, behind only 2k11
WHAT HAPPENED TO THE GRAPHICS!?!? This is by far the best looking sports game of all time. Why did 2k manage to downgrade the fucking graphics every year after 2k14!? 😔😔😔
1: balancing graphics & lighting, elite lighting of which being one of the main reasons why 2k14 & 16 look so fantastic 2: #1 at least partly comes down to budget which Take Two (the people that own 2k) has control over
mattmakes 2k bro 2k11-2k14 looked the same on Xbox 360 and ps3 it capped out how good the graphics could get same thing that’s happening now with the Xbox one and PS4
Comparing nba2k14 with PS5 nba2k21 is night and day, perhaps even bigger than last gen. The problem is still animations. Once they will improve that it will be a real step up.
I want the court to feel bigger. Whenever I play 2k I feel like the court is too small. I can have 4 guys on the perimeter and it still feels like the driving lanes and paint is clogged. Idk maybe I’m tripping
They probably purposely downgraded the graphics of 2k20 because they knew the next gen consoles were gonna be crazy so we get that “shock” factor again
2k14 was hands down my fav 2k of all time. I still play it. I love every ounce of the game. The graphics, the gameplay, the soundtrack, the animations, the mycareer story. In my eyes, it was the perfect game. If every 2k from here on out was a rerelease of 2k14 I’d buy it every year.
NBA 2K3 was the first 2K with sweat though. I remember buying that game after reading about how it would actually use lighting to mimic sweat on the players as the game went along.
After play nba2k14 next I satisfied with their graphics on that game even though the player face models was in perfect still I was happy of the lighting of the game and on the court
I'm excited to see muscle anatomy be developed. Muscle flexing throughout different movements. More animations or a different engine for body movement and response
I just hope that in this game they try to make most players just as detailed and realistic as 2k14 made Bron, Kobe, and KD to look like. Cause I remember Damian Lillard and Kyrie Irving looked sus while D.Rose and Chris Paul looked like real people.
the one thing i really hope they improve is those moments where the players are like moving their heads and the eyes are looking off to the side completely unnaturally. there certain small things like that that really break immersion for me.
Tbh. I'm more worried about the gameplay. 2k20 is the first game I just put down and went back because the gameplay felt so dull and easy. Thankfully your 2k16 review reminded me how great it was so I went back to that this year.
Anyone remember what it was like on last gens nba 2k association mode and being able to actually do drills with your players to make them better? Yeah i miss that.
One thing I think you are forgetting is that the leap in technology from generation is becoming less and less. The leap from n64 and PS1 to GameCube and PS2 is bigger than the leap from PS2 to PS3 which is bigger than the leap from PS3 to PS4. So it makes sense that the leap from PS4 to PS5 will be even less.
Graphics and gameplay have changed from year to year but 2k still is the best basketball game.i can only imagine how 2k21 will look on ps5 and xbox series x.
I'm not a programmer or something, but could it be, that the 2k games after 2k14 got a graphic downgrade, because they coulndt manage/expand the amount of game modes or in-game content , if the graphics were the same?! And that's maybe why 2k14 , hadn't many game modes ?!
The sad thing is that only next-gen console who get this awesome graphics I remember that I'm so excited to play NBA 2k14 in my PC at that time. Shortly after I was disappointed because there were no different with NBA 2K13 it's like the 2K only make a roster update & new menu design for the PC & last gen console (PS3 etc.)
2K14 was a much smaller game than later games, graphics had to take a hit for them to flesh out other areas of the game, but honestly player models, face renders, textures on uniforms, accessories, and scanned sneakers are 10x better than what we had in 2K14. The game just simply has better lighting, graphically the lighting has gotten progressively worse and it’s very noticeable, but it improved in almost every other area. Just goes to show how important lighting is.
2K14 next gen was very good looking, shame it was only that the good point of the game. Btw, why don't compare PS4 2K14 with the old gen 2K14 instead of 2K13?
I think with the limitations with last gen they cut down on graphics and added it more with facial players etc which is true as well with what you said 2k21 looks good but 2k14 looked more life like with the lighting etc
I remember telling my dad that 2k15 was super realistic and that when I played 2k11 it looked like a cartoon game. I played 2k15 like 4 days ago and it didn’t look too good.
Bruh if 2k drops the ball on Next Gen I will be legit depressed because EaLive for some reason forgot how to make graphics even though that EA happens to produce Fifa which is a very good game graphics wise, meanwhile Live looks like the players were created by my 4 year old sister
If you were to make this video when 2k16 was out I would’ve said “it would be huge” but as of the state of 2K rn I don’t have the confidence that they will have a big leap in graphics
If you watched the ps5 gameplay, the commentator said that they can now make alot of high detailed models run in real time so what if 2k is now able to make extremely life like crowds.
During the jump between ps3 and ps4, 2k was not seen as lazy and money hungry. Now they are. I think everyone is gonna be disappointed when the ps5 version comes out
Consoles are just slowly becoming PCs hell the prices are even getting similar. I expect a huge boost in PC sales and a massive decline in console ones this decade. Except Nintendo cause they are the only ones who make unique consoles and games still

I'm going to need that 2K14 Graphics ENERGY entering the next gen. Same lighting and EVERYTHING.
I need that experience again. Seeing the trailer, especially loading up the game for the first time. I never thought a basketball game could look so realistic and MyCareer was so fun
Matt M. We need to be able to dunk and make layups
Matt M. Why would they use last gen technology when they can use next gen technology?
Matt M. Bruh 🤦🏽♂️ hell no. How do you expect the game to get better if you want them to just go backwards? What you typed would not make a perfect 2k AT ALL
Demetrious Stephens ur acting as if the game isn’t utter and complete garbage this year
The real question is if they would have a soundtrack as good as 2K14's one was.
Nah 2k16 was 🐐
Who Asked 2k11 and 13 goated soundtrack
2k12 needs some love
@@bryantndongmo4780 2K18 Was trash but the soundtrack was the best since 13
2k13 Goml
Conspiracy: 2K intentionally makes the graphics shittier each year to make the next gen look more impressive 🤔
Brooke - yooooooooooo
I think they just didn't want go past what they did for 2K14's graphics or else they would've peaked, and the PS5 graphics wouldn't have made much of a leap compared to what they did on the previous generation.
Facts lol they need a competition to improve and push the game to the limit unfortunately EA is ass
Or if you remember 2k14 had virtually no features. It had park, MyGM and MyCareer because all processing power was used on graphics. When they added new features graphics had to be scaled back.
Dumb conspiracy, why would they make the graphics worse for 6 straight years and possibly sell less just for one year of increased sales? It doesn't make sense
It's truly a damn shame 2K14 was the first 2K in this generation and still looks the best.
What sells these graphics to me is that the players actually look like real people proportion wise, nowadays it looks like you're playing with action figures of the players, i don't know if it has something to so with the simulated focal lenght or the player models or a combination of both but this game had that aspect 100% nailed
Dom coming in clutch with these vids and streams
You should check out clique productions he’s really entertaining and be coming in clutch when you’re bored
Dom2k can you do a 2k21 wishlist which can include improvements to the MyLeague
^
Dom probably dreams about 2k14 graphics
AH25 hm

Imma try get the name of the beat inna the Intro
2k14 visually in my mind was the best looking. That's why I manage expectations of 2k21, how great can it be?
It is the best. Especially the jersey fluidity and how it moves with the players, not like in recent ones like they glued on
I can't even imagine how they could topple that 2k14 graphics. Maybe the crowd would get facescan graphics to be more realistic.
Man, I remember when the PS4 first came out and I seen the trailer for 2K14 and I was blown tf away. The hype just isn’t the same as the new 2k and PS5
Lmaooooo the quarantine bron 😂😂😂
man looked liked kimbo slice
When I seen that ray Allen from NBA 2k14 when it came out I thought to myself this is as real as it gets

2k14 looked amazing, like ground breaking stuff, just shows how lazy 2k has gotten
SHUT UP MAKE YOUR OWN GAME AND LET'S RANK THAT
2K IS AMAZING
@@blackman216 so a customer can't have an opinion on a product? dumbest logic ive ever heard
mattmakes 2k bro 2k11-2k14 looked the same on Xbox 360 and ps3 it capped out how good the graphics could get same thing that’s happening now with the Xbox one and PS4
YGNYung like how do you downgrade on graphics? Like 2k14>2k15
And one year later we know that nothing happened
Lol been watching you so much on twitch I’m so used to how you talk there this is so much more professional lol ... either way great video as usual
that was the smoothest transition into an advertisement I've ever seen, well done lol
I’m here after seeing how 2k21 next gen is the same shit as current gen SMH
Comparing nba2k14 with PS5 nba2k21 is night and day, perhaps even bigger than last gen. The problem is still animations. Once they will improve that it will be a real step up.
4:47 who remembers when you would run across to the other team in the black top
"Quarantine Bron lmaoo"
fam, I am excited to see what's next for 2K next gen!

Bro right now I’m dead tired of you being on every video I watch
Should I give 2k21 a chance? I kinda lost hope in them in the last few years.
Bigstreezy That’s up to you
@@bigstreezy if you're gonna get it for next gen,yes you should.
I want the court to feel bigger. Whenever I play 2k I feel like the court is too small. I can have 4 guys on the perimeter and it still feels like the driving lanes and paint is clogged. Idk maybe I’m tripping
It variate from year to year

the gameplay, not a fan of the gameplay
NBA 2K3 was the first 2K with sweat though. I remember buying that game after reading about how it would actually use lighting to mimic sweat on the players as the game went along.
Man, I just want open layups to go in.
Love this video, I always think about these things when it comes to yearly released games like 2k, Madden and CoD and how big the jump should be
NBA Live 19's player models + 2K14's court and lighting = the perfect basketball game graphics
Clive Davies right they should drop the “feud” and just combine to make the best basketball game of all time, more money cmon 2k and live
I like your videos man keep it up🤞🏻💯💎💵💰
Quarantine Lebron looks like kimbo slice and 2k13 Lebron look like 50 cent
Different versions of legends shouldn’t all look the same 🤦🏽♂️
It's sad to this very day 2k14 has the best graphics I hope 2k21 looks that good on next gen especially on the series X
I still can’t get over the fact that they got away with downgrading the graphics year after year from 2k14 to 2k20. I hope they don’t do that again
homie really added the modelo beer commercial music at 6:50 haha I'm dead
Sports games during a console launch are actually exciting because of the next gen jump. Here’s to hoping 2K21 is a good game from the rip
After play nba2k14 next I satisfied with their graphics on that game even though the player face models was in perfect still I was happy of the lighting of the game and on the court

NBA 2k14 made me feel like I was in spirits more
Damn I confused 2k14 with a real picture of LeBron. They’re graphics were amazing back then.
Anyone still play this game till this day
Not only the graphics but also the symmetry of the body and head that the 2k14 did better
i expect it to look exactly the same as it has the last 3 years
Dom you really need to get on that 2K19 review. Gotta do it while it's fresh
To be fair, the look of the body models is drastically better now than at the start of the generation, also animations look more fluid
6:12 SHANE with the BLOCK ON SHAQ 🔥
...2K Logic right there 😂
Dom is the type of dude who you just wanna sit down and have a beer with
Their biggest innovation will be the inclusion of a credit card swiper on the controller to make microtransactions safe, quick and efficient.
Your background music sounded like sacrifices by dreamville for a second, I got hype
the one thing i really hope they improve is those moments where the players are like moving their heads and the eyes are looking off to the side completely unnaturally. there certain small things like that that really break immersion for me.
Noti gang
If they bring out 50's- 90's basketball teams and rule changes I would look forward for the coming UE5 reveal.
Tbh. I'm more worried about the gameplay. 2k20 is the first game I just put down and went back because the gameplay felt so dull and easy. Thankfully your 2k16 review reminded me how great it was so I went back to that this year.
And us PC players sitting here with a non upgraded 2k14, essentially rehash of 2k13.
I'm sorry but ever since 18 came out 2k hasn't been If they made 21 like 16 I'd grind all day and night

Anyone remember what it was like on last gens nba 2k association mode and being able to actually do drills with your players to make them better? Yeah i miss that.
don't sleep on 2k13's soundtrack tho, had some great classic hip-hop songs

Big difference they cared back then
Crazy that you posted this the day after I got 2k14 and restarted playing lmao
Back when they made an effort for a new game. Now we're getting in-game ads

I'll be waiting for those new holographic shot clock lights at the free throw line.
You’re not gonna see a huge graphical jump until at least 2k22
Yeah the new jump isnt as big but still insane
frfr
2k14 had the best lighting
but the latest ones clearly have the player's faces more accurate and the gameplay is way better
I think with the limitations with last gen they cut down on graphics and added it more with facial players etc which is true as well with what you said 2k21 looks good but 2k14 looked more life like with the lighting etc
Create a special section of flop players like divac and harden.the animations need to be flop crispy
Yea i remeber when i thought madden 07 to madden 08 graphics was unbelievable with the ps2 to the ps3 jump
