WWE 2K23's latest patch 1.21 sets a bad example of how to handle community creators such as those who create characters/players, rosters & scenarios within our favorite sports video games. Offline games do not typically enjoy the plethora of updates that the more lucrative modes gain during the yearly cycle. None of us want to face cheaters & exploiters of the game but when people unearth unused & hidden assets is where we learn what these companies are keeping from us for better or for worse. Banning these folks is just a way of sweeping the lack of updates under the rug as opposed to being transparent with your consumers of why things were kept away from paying customers even if we don't like the explanation. These does not bode well for other sports video games even the ones under the Take Two umbrella.
