I'm a 2k veteran for 20 years. I dumped this trash in 2022 after they did this. Used to be that the old games still had full servers and you could get online matches for 2 years. Not anymore.

With that said, I got the game on some ridiculous sale, for like $3, and even that price it's hard to justify. The game is riddled with cutscenes you either can't skip or you have to watch 15-30s of, etc. For example, at the end of the quarter you might have to watch some dancers hold up Gatorade signs. And then there is a really stupid story which you can't skip and just have to sit through. Obnoxious scenes of you walking into and out of an elevator and you have to walk between different areas. It's very obvious they want to make the game as painfully long as possible to essentially force you to buy credits to improve your character, but for me that defeats the whole point. I don't want to just have a good character, I want to progress. It's just a frustrating experience riddled with brief moments of fun. Maybe they've fixed these issues since, but I decided to personally never buy a 2K game ever again.
This sucks. Micro transactions ruined gaming.
