Top critical reviews
The most up-voted negative English reviews in our sample, quoted as written.
“NEVER buy a game from 2K. They've taken away online support (which also ruins character creation in offline mode) for 2K19 and 2K20 because they released 2K22. Are you thinking of spending $80 on their latest buggy-ass piece of sh*t? Fine…”
“The servers were recently pulled, so you can no longer upload images, killing almost all customization. No! No! No!”
