Yes I hated how they locked characters behind the mode because it affected the rest of the game. I didn't care when it was a throwaway mode that didn't affect anything else, which is exactly what I said in the 2k24 thread. I didn't say you have to accept something,
I explained why the thing you wanted isn't going to happen. Seriously what is your problem? You're the one that took this too far over a game you claim you don't even play.

Just keep on playing 2k19 and post in that thread and let the rest of us discuss 2k25.
