I was thinking about this mt nba 2k21 today also. I hear they make tons of cash on VC, but maybe they need to? Like there I no way licensing is inexpensive, getting participant faces is cheap, researching their motions for ratings, tendencies, and animations is cheap, it's a whole lot of work that is never going to end up in a product which does not feel replicated ever year and be profitable for them.

The NBPA has tons of negotiating power to charge whatever they want for this, so I bet there's some level of requirement in their end. Not saying they are saints, just look at Take2's other hits that are likely much cheaper to produce.

That is why that whole only patch it with fresh rosters debate is ridiculous, since EA and 2k actually would not be in a position to sustain that version, then we wouldnt get some sports games.

Furthermore, at least EA they invest a lot of cheap nba 2k21 mt money an analytical teams which accurately capture the stats of every participant. Just going off of stat sheets does not tell you everything, like it will say 50 passes completed, but it doesn't tell you whether it was a short pass, lob pass, throughball, or even how fast they pass or how much curve the pass might have.

The research teams do all of that operate every year. Same goes for different types of shots, or endurance. There's a lot that gets analyzed to make it as realistic as possible (which is the way they've predicted just like 4 out of 6 of the last world cups).
