"That's an interesting idea. Maybe next year!" Honestly, I'm shocked that they haven't brought back Ledesma yet to put the shit cherry on top of the shit sundae. "The moves cut wrestlers released were just a mistake that Yukes did that I had no control over I don't know why they did it!"

As figured, SummerSlam and after is where we’re gonna start getting the info drops... Not sure how much difference it’d make given the open contempt towards them, but still.

Yay pretty entrances and shitty gameplay mechanics are back! Yeah. I just don't know what it'll take to bring me back to these games. I'm resigned to the fact that a game actually faithfully recreating pro wrestling is nearly impossible. Even Fire Pro doesn't totally get there.

Wrestling games are essentially fighting games, and have been the entire time they’ve existed as a concept. But that’s not what pro wrestling actually IS, is it? It’s a storytelling vehicle, not an actual shoot fight. Short of “I’ll put the controller down for five minutes and let the AI opponent beat me up for a bit”, it’s next to impossible to replicate the structure of a conventional wrestling match in a video game setting.

Reversals and high difficulty settings, perhaps? Though the AI should never be frustrating either.

I’m just mainly here to see if the creation modes got better.

I can't think of a game where Edge's hair was that graphically rendered (and also doesn't appear to be clipping into his jacket) so 2K22 has that going for it.

For creation modes I'd like to see: -Some way to make the whole process go quicker cuz doing all of it to make a unique wrestler takes f***ing forever now -Entrance and victory in the same menu -More attire slots -Way more than 100 for CAW limit, IDC if it takes up my whole hard drive I want MOOORE -Not have some logos randomly recolor themselves for no reason

I think this might confirm 2K22 is PS4/XBOne only. Looks very much like every game has for the last few years of that era of systems. I mean, it did in the trailer, but still.

Considering how tough it is to buy a PS5 still, it's probably for the best to wait another year before a wrestling game is on the current-gen systems.

Redoing it from the ground up sounds nice if it's true. Too bad a bunch of the dev time got put into putting people in the game who are going to have to be surgically removed now. Lot of dev hours down the drain over that.

Lot of dev hours down the drain over that. I feel so bad for the devs. Because they don't even know if the cuts are over either.

Lot of dev hours down the drain over that. Meh, just give them all generic names like Fire Pro Wrestling. For example, Bobby Fish/Johnny Trout. Easy fix.

That's not exactly a huge hurdle to overcome.

All I want is a WWE Game that is fun to play with a good creation suite and more freedom to actually do crazy moments. Look at GTA, COD, etc. Look at all the compilations there is of those games. We need more individual experience.
No Mercy, Day of Reckoning, SYM, HCTP, SVR2006, SVR2011, WWE 13, 2K14.
Those were the best games they ever made. So why are they not taking inspiration from that?
what made those games so good was that they were fast paced. They weren't slow. When you hit someone with a move, they got back up.
Another thing, they really need to revamp the online modes. I want a Divisions style system where you start off in Division 10 and then when you get to Division 1, you become WWE Champion. It would give us a reason to play online. Also, make it so people can't make crazy CAWs and spam RKOs and Spears.
