I bought that game on day one, too! It was my first basketball game since NBA Live 97. I said "If they're making the effort to support the Switch, I'll support them." It actually impressed me. Then I played the career mode. They wanted money for EVERYTHING. My character couldn't make the simplest shot. I logged in about five hours, mostly exhibition mode. Uninstalled it and never looked back.
The whole company can shut down for all I care. I've bought a WWE title every year since the PS1 days but never again. They've burned this bridge. |
IKR? They literally charge you for friggin' player haircuts. And to make matters worse, they don't even let you preview said haircut and charge you to change it back if you don't like it, all in the name of gimping players for more money. And that's not even getting to the meat of their moneygrubbing in that game. It literally takes you a minimum of 240 games played to fully upgrade your created player without spending real money on VC, and that's if you get all A+ performances, good luck with that. Otherwise, it takes you 300 games with all B performances and 360 games with all C performances.
And let's not forget Grind Theft Auto Online, where you'll get smoked by guys running around with fully-weaponized cars, motorcycles with wings that fly through the air, helicopters, etc. trying to rack up millions of dollars for new cars, bases, etc. unless you spend hordes of real life money on Shark Cards right out of the gate.
I've said it before, and I'll say it again: Take-Two is as greedy as EA, Activision, Konami, Ubisoft, etc. It's amazing how much they get away with shit other companies get shit on for doing.
