Because these dudes like Joe, the asian, the clean prince dude all just trend hop on whatever controversy is going on with the same phony outrage and they barely do any research on said topic. First off they are presenting the one mode as if its a total representation of the entire game. Myteam has been a money pit for years so all the pouty face and screaming over this is corny. Second, the reason they get away with that and its not considered gambling is because 2k, like other companies, has a stupid convoluted currency system where you have the option of earning the MT points to get packs and other crap. Yes you can buy it with real world money via VC but the MT points you can't so 2k has the out with hey you earn this in game by playing so its not technically straight gambling/loot boxes. Its dirty but hey don't like it don't buy it. This dudes losing their minds over gaming which at the end of the day is trivial and also optional is lame

That’s the point. They design the game with blatant pay to win mechanics and give huge advantages to people willing to shell out real world money by making the grind tedious by Giving them an out.

It’s insidious game design. People willing to shell out money have a huge advantage in both time and player power over those who don’t.

It’s mind-boggling that y’all are using the defense “2K been doing this for years” as if that somehow makes it ok. Y’all realize that most gaming communities refuse to let shyt like this happen?

Battlefront 2 got destroyed for this bullshyt.

The big concern is how this game is marketed to kids. They don't have jobs so the have to get the money from their parents to participate in the pay to win mechanics. Which is unnecessary cost even after paying $60 for the game itself.

Most of the 2K community doesn't care tbh, a lot of people are attacking Angry Joe and more for calling out 2K's greed.
Ain't surprising, the Sports gaming community been getting fukked for years and been accepting the shyt. So I'm not even surprised they cool with microtransactions.

Who said that it’s ok. It’s obviously not. But complaining about it yearly does nothing. And like others said the 2k community doesn’t care. Don’t like don’t buy.
