… a backlash from PC players has resulted in an influx of negative reviews. Now, according to Steam 250, it ranks just behind Overwatch 2 in the list of worst reviewed games on Steam.
Much of that backlash is due to this PC version being based on the PS4 and Xbox One versions of the game, instead of PS5 and Xbox Series X/S.
…
For instance, the game’s website celebrates features like ProPLAY that “directly translates NBA footage into NBA 2K24 gameplay”, as well as personalised career mode The W. These are only available on PS5 and Xbox Series X/S.
Seems like a repeating pattern: new basketball game from this publisher -> steam user reviews are bad. Every time.
Why do these people keep buying them if they’re so bad?
Why did they make the PC version based on PS4 instead of PS5 version? What was the reason?
