      @@That1PissedOffBoomer Honestly after all the patches 2K20 is reasonably stable from what I can tell. Still some issues in CAW creator, and some minor things gameplay wise, but ultimately it's nothing you can't work around.
      All these RUclipsrs just like to take games that aren't their personal favorites, and make them look as bad as possible by showcasing the launch, pre-patch version instead of talking about the games in the state they ultimately ended up in after all patches was rolled out.
      I'm not saying 2K20 is perfect, but it's nowhere near as bad now as it was upon it's release.

    I would love if a game comes out and has a mode where you use everyone on the roster, 1 single time, in one of their historic matches. If you win the match and complete the historic objectives, you unlock a custom attire or something simple. Then after you do it for everyone, you get a larger prize for completion. It would allow you to experience every superstar and probably every match type at least once. These game rosters are gigantic and I only use a handful of characters. It'd be a simple & fun mode to kill some time.

      Same. For me, it's the one I get the most enjoyment out of. I spent a lot of time playing/watching royal rumbles and unwinnable Fatal 4-Ways. I miss when you could turn off all ways of winning and just have a match that doesn't end until you decide it ends. Also, I miss the hilariously dumb AI taunting all the time (even after they've activated their special.)

    • @obzcure
      @obzcure 3 года назад +7

      @matt It was sort of multiple things. This was still quite early days of online gaming, so there wasn't a large audience at the time.
      The other issue was as beta testers we got access to everything, that makes sense of course as that was our job BUT that carried on to when it was released. Meaning that new players would have to buy a tonne of card packs to remotely compete.
      It was an overally simple card game as well unfortunatley. It seems that only had a vague idea of how card games worked.

    • @obzcure
      @obzcure 3 года назад +1

      @matt fahringer in a lot of ways yeah. It was just poorly managed. It would a great mobile game and better than super card in my opinion with some decent management. It was more along the lines of hearthstone but also different. Its quite hard to explain unless there's any footage of it anywhere. It didn't last long at all and I don't remember the list of wrestlers being too big either. I mostly remember shane McMahon being overpowered as fuck.

    • @obzcure
      @obzcure 3 года назад +2

      @matt fahringer there was a fair bit broken about it. It wouldn't have been hard to fix though. In the current gaming world it would be fixed and patched etc.
      I think it could be brought back and made into something quite good and successful. It would still be microtransactiony. But something like hearthstone works in that middle ground where people can pay there way through but those who don't aren't at a complete disadvantage.
