THE MOST HATED POINT GUARD REC RANDOM in NBA 2K25

2k25: A game No One Loves or Enjoys. 2k25 is the worst 2k I’ve ever played from a gameplay perspective. Whoever coded this game should be forced to resign out of sheer embarrassment for the abomination that is 2k25. This might be the only 2k that imo has almost no redeeming qualities gameplay wise. There is virtually nothing from this games gameplay that I would want to see carried over to the next 2k or any 2k after it outside of maybe go to shot cancels. This is one of the only 2ks that no amount of tweaks or changes could have saved. It’s fundamentally bad across the board down to the coding in almost aspect of gameplay.

The foundation of this game is unsaveable and should only be used as a blueprint of exactly what not to do moving forward. Having by far the worst/clunkiest/least fluid movement system of all time and it’s not close, heaviest implementation of RNG/algo and it’s not close, lowest gamespeed of all time, least amount of player control on offense and defense of all time and lowest skill ceiling of all time is the perfect recipe for making the least fun 2k and simultaneously the least competitive 2k ever, which by default makes it the worst 2k of all time imo. They somehow managed to make a game that the vast majority of comp, casuals, sweats, sim nation, dribble gods, content creators and everything in between all regard as a bottom 3 worst 2k at best regardless of how you play the game or what category you fall under. That’s truly impressive in the worst way possible.

2k19 was really broken as hell lmao you could run the offense on any build 😂😂😂 but I did have hella fun on that shit compared to this shit now

Naw swan F that Swante 2K 18 was the worst. That’s the first 2K. They had me missing greens . 😂😂😂😂

17 was hated. Badly too. Idk where this love from it came from

W video

Having 2k15 at F in the thumbnail definitely got me to click😂😂good job

23 current gen was good lowkey

2k20 was peaked imo

NBA 2K16 was so crazy. Till this day it’s the most vibrant and responsive 2K I ever played. Everything just felt right. If u was nice u could pull up wit 3 guards and get busy if u had stick skill.

Never rate 2ks again lmao 21 was good asl besides glitches 😭😭

Fredo and nolimitshawn got me into 2k period, then runyew,cheese,hank,isiix made me into a dribbler ❤

I remember playing 16 till the server shut, hands down peak 2k

2k25 shouldn’t even make this list. Any dev who had anything to do with 25 should be locked up for life. Ronnie started the California fires 💔

2k25 feels like some shit I’ll play at Dave and Busters. To me this game is an abomination compared to the older 2ks

Bro this is the problem now. How yu say 2k19 is one of the most fun 2ks but put it at the bottom. You literally put unplayable 2ks over one that's the most fun

2k24 needs to be higher

Nah you not gon lose a lot 2k21 was when my casual ass start saying 2k is ass😂💯

This the only game where the more I play the worse I feel like I’m getting

My List Best To Worst (I’ve played each 2k a minimum of 200 hours +) 2K16-2K17-2K20-2K22 CURRENT(just needed rep system to be amazing) - 2K21 CURRENT - 2K19(was on Fortnite during this, didn’t really play as much) 2K24 Next Gen - 2K18 - 2K23 Next Gen - 2K25 Next Gen - 2K21 Next Gen

Late to the Vid, but as someone who played online for the first time in 2k18 but played the games before offline I agree with this list. Even though I had the PS5 my homies didn’t have it so I didn’t experience 2k21 or 2k22 next gen much.

2k21 Last Gen: Horrid under 2k19.

The Good: Parks was damn near never empty. Layups were actually fun (I know I’m weird.) The events were decent enough to have fun. And last the BP (Blue & Green Pie Chart) build actually held up as a PG if you were at least decent.

The Bad: Shooting was atrocious, unless you was good shooting with the BP build as I explained you HAD to make a Play-Sharp. This was the first game where shadows on the courts started to become an issue which still happens 4 games later. The speed glitch into the Curry slide spam was legit everywhere. And last from my memory the gaining and losing overall above 95 was extremely stupid, people legit ran from games to keep their overall.

2k22 Last Gen: Find Mike Wang Above 2k18.

The Good: In my opinion every play-style was usable, I started the game on a Rebounding Guard (center type build) and ended the game on a Shot-Creator style build. Very nitpick but Slashing Takeover actually worked, the amount of glassitis centers I dunked on was nuts. I honestly enjoyed the ship vibe besides one thing that I’ll get too, the ship after the neighborhood was actually decent instead of a giant ass city.

The Bad: REAL PLAYER % SHOOTING WAS OD, I know you could stop it if you were in front of them but people would go 5/5 with no repercussions. In my opinion this game is where Left-Right dribbling took off especially if they were running screens, tag that along with the real player shooting and GGs. The elevator glitch that would randomly happen so you was stuck for hours in the same area. That one stupid quest you had to do to unlock the skateboard I believe where you had to run around the ship for 30+ minutes to complete it. Pretty sure there was more bad but imma end it with the worst of all… The Parrot… don’t need to say anything.

Nah 20 gets bad rep cause 19 was so broken 20 in alone of itself is really good bruh i could break it down but it too much lol the only issue imo was getting games and the hopstep besides that everything. Was manageable imo and i cant see 21 being better when ppl was using zens like crazy but besides that the list great !

15 take was top tier not everyone made reds or had demi gods i miss that shit

Thank you for making this video. My 2K prime was 2K11-2K20. The first 2K I ever played was 2K2 on the GameCube. You know ball fr. 2K16 the greatest 2ak of all time. You could play 2K16 for 8 hours straight and be happy regardless of the results.

20 the best 2k AFTER 16 I’ll die on this hill 😂

Ngl 17 stretches were more op than any other 2k if people knew the dex cheese but they defense was a lot more responsive to where you can contain it

21 not better than 20 wtf
22 def not better than 20 you contest system was literally non existent

2k16 best 2k24 realistic most balanced 2k15 cheese fun 2k17 dribble head love it biggest skill gap 2k18 before the patch after the patch 2 worse 2k after 2k25

Swan react to Gman 2k dribble video he just dropped I fw how you broke down solluminati video few weeks back, I'm tryna hear ya take on it

Soon as i loaded 18 i missed a wide open layup

People had integrity in 17 .. they had park cards but they didn’t use them because they lose credibility

Last 5 2ks beens horrible we at war with the slave master Mike wang bro !

Nba 2k25 by far thee worst basketball product of the face of this earth

Bro one of my homies tried to argue me down about 25 being betta than 18 and im just like you must ain’t play 18 cause the shit that happens in 25 I never saw in 18 most I heard complaints about was snatch backs and blow bys

Ngl they did so bad this year with 2k25 they need to remaster a golden era 2k give us tht and take a year off to get this shit together for 2k27 cuz they path they going down it’s dark and shitty

2k16 made 17 the greatest 2k of all time by 17 being 100x better than 16.

2k15 top 3 2k oat man, i was a little kid but i remember that patch 4 💔 the chaining of the moves was so satisfying

THAT CRAWFORD ESCAPE IN 2K16 WAS DIFFERENT

you didn’t miss on this list

11, 12 and 20

NBA2k 25. Is the worse I ever played. Hands down

2k20 post scorers was OD too lol

I'm old. I see it's not discussed.

So..My opinion here is strictly offline and gameplay. Online I avoided since the beginning.

So. NBA 2k13 imo is the best. 13 is exploitable, but man, if you play real basketball 🏀, for me it's the most fun in the series. If you want realism and don't like flash. Avoid it. But if you do.. it's delish.

13 has Perfect presentation, great music , great era, I honestly feel it still to this day the most fun. 11 and 12 are probably my next 2. They are still a blast.

14 (not next gen). Was great too. I loved the very underrated LeBron mode. 14 fixed the exploits from 13 too. The only problem with 14 the presentation took a step down from13. 13 presentation honestly was near perfect.

The presentation since IMO has been quite lacking. For next gen, 14 was stunning graphically. For gameplay 16 was the best. Another great soundtrack too. Was the last game I felt that they werent going after your money with transactions. 17 was awful at launch. But I actually still go back to it now. Still better than 18 to 25. The patches helped a lot. Offline at least. 18 was probably the worst for money grabbing. Again, AI was dumb at launch. That blow by exploit was crazy. 19 -25 ain't worth talking about

bruh this is flawed I hate 2k25 but 2k19 is goat teir just like 16,17, and 20

I actually liked 2k18 prolly bc I played the game with realism. The defense animation when the ball handler driving to the rim and the defender is riding the the ball handler hip kinda make me like the home more bc of the physics. Like I stayed in rec with my 6’10 slashing Shotcreator just euroing and dunking on randoms while still doing stepback 2s and 3s. The stepback was cheese but I didn’t over use it. I’ll give it top5 2ks my opinion if gamer wasn’t cheesing

2k17/19 my favs they were so much fun icl
My list from best to worst goes:
2k17
2k19
2k16
2k15
2k14
2k20
2k23
2k22
2k18
2k24
2k21
2k25
NBA 2k25 is by far the worst shit I’ve ever played RNG is in everything you do from running to rebounding to passing it’s awful pls go back to 2k14-17 and 19 type gameplay and go back to realistic parks these city bs / parks they give us are asss
