    Shoutout to the specific reviewer for keeping it 100% real. Micro transactions in 2K are BEYOND ridiculous. It’s disgusting the lengths they have gone to get into your pockets. This made me more of an IGN fan will definitely be following more of their reviews going forward

    To those of you who always try to defend microtransactions by saying things like "No one is forcing you to buy them what's the big deal?"
    This is a perfect example of why we always complain about it, because these companies always go to far they always attempt to push things beyond the limit to the point where it literally affects everyone's experience. This is why microtransactions are bad it starts off where you can ignore it at first but eventually it spirals out of control due to their greed

    There was a time when NBA 2K was the absolute king. It was incredible how much the game imlroved upon and blew away the competition. Since EA bowed out they they have crumbled. Now they just exist to print money. They no longer need to innovate. There is no one out there to challenge them. Conpettion breeds excellence and it is sorely needed. EA failing was horrible for consumers. We need them in this fight. The days when 5 studios would out an NBA game were really great, its a damn shame making games has gotten so expensive and prohibitive to smaller devlopers.

    The constant need for micro transactions has been an issue for me in nba 2K for years. Glad to see that they’re finally getting dogged out for it. Also the base basketball game element has been suffering for years as well.

    My Career stories are so darn disappointing. Instead of telling a story of a character such as 2K16's "Living the dream", it's more so written to guilt you into feeling like you don't belong in the NBA without spending.

    2K could potentially cater to both online and offline audiences by creating two distinct NBA 2K experiences:
    Classic Edition (Offline): Priced at $60, this standalone title would focus on single-player and local multiplayer. It would revisit and revitalize beloved offline modes from the 2010-2017 era, boasting modern graphics for an enhanced experience.
    Online Arena (Free-to-Play): This online-only title would be either free or available at a low price point (around $20). It would prioritize competitive online gameplay and offer all the microtransactions 2k wants to put. Regular updates would include roster changes, minor graphical improvements, and other features to keep the online environment fresh, eliminating the need for yearly releases. This would allow players to build their online dynasties and characters over time not having to redo it every year from the beginning.
    This two-pronged approach could provide a more sustainable experience for both online and offline NBA 2K fans.
