For those who think a big dev and matching budget like 2K is the guaranteed solution to all these issues just need to play their latest instalment of WWE - 2K20.
After year on year of gradual improvement (at a rate of diminishing returns and annoying omissions from previous years), they delivered what could go down as the most broken and unplayable top tier sports game in history.
You don’t even need to have played past wwe games, or even to enjoy wwe, to see just how stuffed the game is. When released (and for many months after), there was a game breaking bug where all wrestlers would get possessed bungy-legs. Hilarious to watch others melting over, but insane that a game like that can be released in this day and age.
Compared to wwe 2k20, Evo 2 is a AAA release!
edit: enjoy a quick sample of what could be the most broken game release in gaming history (at least by a big developer, who is on their 7th iteration of said game...)
NSFW at 15sec...
The worst part is that it was still more playable than Evolution 2.
They also didn't have the delay that Evolution 2 got despite the issues between Yukes and 2k.
It was also torn to shreds far worse than Evolution 2 has been.
