I pre-ordered this game, what the fuck was I thinking.

That's not fair, I know what I was thinking - I don't play MyCareer so the microtransactions don't affect me even though they're absolutely criminal.

No, I play 2K for MyTeam and most importantly MyLeague. MyLeague... works. Mostly as intended too. I think it has added too much micromanagement but you don't actually have to engage with it so that's fine.

No, where this game falls down is PLAYING THE DAMN GAME OF BASKETBALL. I'm not a pro. Not even close to it. But in previous 2K games is was able to run plays, make shots and play defence. I have no clue what they did to this one but I hate every minute of playing the game. Hell, I even tried playing with a full team of 90-overall players - nah didn't help. I see people on the 2K sub reddit saying this has the best gameplay yet and I don't get it at all. It'd be real cool if it was fucking possible to make an open layup - is that too much to ask?

Anyway, that's my gripe. Also how about having some non-shady business practices 2K you absolute ghouls
