I think if you go back, you'll actually find that Randy Ortons '09, '11 and '12 offer a fresh and diverse range of play.

Maybe it's because I've grown up with games but tbh freaking out over collision detection glitches seems like making mountains out of molehills to me. Any Bethesda or Rockstar game you can mention is far glitchier than this even after months of patching. Falling through a level or hitting an invisible wall are like goose poo poo, mildly annoying things that you have to live with if you're going to get anywhere. I've seen the occasional jank but nothing game-stopping in however many hours I've logged. MGS5 is far worse in terms of time lost to glitches.

Probably because it has more game breaking glitches, as stated in the post referred to.

He was comparing the frequency and impact of glitches. And he's right. A janky physics glitch that doesn't actually stop the match isn't a big deal compared to glitches that come in the middle of a 30 minute mission you've attempted multiple times, especially if you haven't hit a decent checkpoint.

Game-play glitches aren't really the problem with this one, where they really hurt is in creation. There are the crashes that have made me start characters over. There is the glitch that resets body and head morphing. There is the one that slowly covers you created character in green glitter. Logo's getting all messed up on downloaded characters. Photo capture working sometimes and then occasionally re-sizing the photo so it looks all weird when you are done morphing them. Compared to that stuff the occasional game-play glitches don't really bother. Still, like the game. But then again I played Vampire Bloodlines all the way through shortly after came out, so I have something of a tolerance for glitches.

Hey, you get to play as Kane and Trips for like a minute each! (Also a bunch of the 'special' objectives have you play matches as the other dude/s if Austin lost the match in reality, with the only goal being to win.)

I can't seem to find the ability to interfere in matches made in universe mode? I'd like some random person to interfere in the pre-booked mathces just to mix it up but no dice. I can only seem to make a new match, or not much else.

A goon said earlier if you want the breakout entrances you select yourself to play and then hit match start, but I didn't get any breakout prompts during entrances.

The Authority stuff in Career is so weird. I was on the positive side of the bar, and then I get 'do 2 Barricade Busters and win by count out'. I don't have that ability and am nowhere near being able to buy it. It's one thing to give me something that's doable but hard, but literally impossible? And then when I'm all the way on the poo poo list I get told to have a 4 star match with Ziggler then do the job. I could do that by accident!

I took the plunge, and purchased 2k16 on my PS4. Did a few matches with the pre-install dudes (You get Dean/Seth/Roman/Austin/Cena/Randy),
Dean (w/Roman) vs Seth: Reality imitated life, and right after a dirty deeds, Seth pinned Dean.
Then I watched Dean (w/Roman) vs Austin (w/Cena) and Dean pinned Austin after a nice back and forth match
Seth vs Randy, Orton won. I'm still bad at the Pin mechanic.
finally I did Cena vs Reigns, and I finally won, pinning Reigns after 3 AAs.

I'm really enjoying 2k16 so far, but my god do the refs take their sweet time counting falls. I'm not a huge fan of Red Shoes, but I'd love for a ref to come leaping into frame ready to count at the drop of a hat, especially in tag matches.

Is 2K16 structured around you going back and forth and putting on an exciting match, or is it still portrayed like it's a real sport and you have to always destroy your opponent and win?

It pays lip service to the first thing but it's actually the second. You build up a star rating by doing different moves, but the moves your opponent does don't contribute or anything, so you just need to beat them down.

Well then it sounds lame, if you have to beat the crap out of your opponent to get 5* and then lay down and lose

I haven't played the game yet though so maybe I'm wrong and The Authority asking you to lose to opponents is actually lots of fun
