WWE 2K18

Career Mode cannot begin to deliver what it promises. I want to play a Star, because what is the saying in the Advertisement: Be like no one! Unfortunately, what my Wrestler gets is more "everyone" than anything else. 98% of the Editorial Content has to be unlocked with Loot Boxes. So as Max Mustermann, I stand in front of Matt Bloom, who celebrates me as the best FreeAgent. Completely unjustified-because even in the Ring I don't have any special Moves on it yet. Because I have to unlock that, too. By the way, completely mundane Things like getting on the 3rd rope. Unfortunately, in order to get my Attributes into an acceptable Range, I also lack the virtual Currency. No matter, I can live with that for the time being and it can finally really start. I end up at NXT-and am supposed to talk to the Show's Producer in The Backstage Area. Why should I? I prefer to flirt with a Diva or get down for no reason with Triple H! There's the next Disappointment right away. You can move freely in The Backstage area, but you really can't interact with the Wrestlers. Except for a motivational Saying, most Wrestlers don't have to say-whether it suits their Character or not. Even talking to them is not in it either. Too bad, I thought here new Stories would develop through my Actions. In The End, however, the Backstage area is more annoying than that it is Fun to do. If you Could simulate quickly from Match to Match in 2K16, you now agonise unnecessarily long from the Car Park to The production manager-and unfortunately back. I run more from A to B than I'm standing in the Ring. Later I have to hold a Promo and try to stick to the Topic if possible. What I am talking about in The End Gives me the maximum Number of Combo Points-but in front of a real Audience the "WHAT" s would have flown around my Ears. Luckily, the Nonsense has not been synchronized. At Least the Matches are really Fun. The AI demands me well and the Fights go back and forth. The new Task System is pleasing. It even happens that I lose a Match against a Superstar. The Bad Thing: I must not miss my Targets in order to move forward. Why doesn't the Game punish me in any Way for Losing? Instead, I sit at a Match until I reach the Given goal. All right, also kind of Ne penalty ... At some Point, you're just playing to make your Character better or unlock stuff. But you earn the virtual Currency so slowly that it runs like chewing Gum. It feels like you wanted to offer the Loot Boxes for Real Money, but then got cold Feet after the NBA disaster. A "Here Comes The Pain" has just done Everything better in Terms of career than the current Title-mind you 15 Years ago. You can live with the Graphics, but here, too, there are Things you had 15 Years ago. You don't get long hair neatly, most Women look creepy. Fight I sometimes at the Entrance ramp the Audience prefers to look at the empty Ring. Ouch! I hope 2k improves a bit with Patches, but I lack the Belief in it.
