NBA 2K24 is one of the most popular games of the year. 2K Games is behind this successful video game series and it is the 25th Anniversary of the game. The fans had a lot of expectations from the game but it did not meet up to the expectations.
The fans rated the game negatively on Steam and the game received backlash from the fans. NBA 2K24 has a face scan feature for the players. MyPlayer lets you take a scan of your face while making your own NBA profile from scratch, and it then makes an automatic attempt to duplicate it in the character maker.
However, it’s not the most precise tool when constructing your own character, as many gamers have discovered over the years. The feature was included in this year’s yearly release by 2K Games despite its past problems, and xQc’s face scan streak exemplifies how wrong it can be.
Internet star xQc was checking out NBA 2K24’s player creation on a routine variety stream when he opted to use the face scan function once more, but the game utterly misread him.
xQc’s reaction looking at the face scan
xQc’s response was limited to thumping his table and a frustrated expression while concealing a laugh. He said, “How? Every year I’m black? Every time man?”. After all, 2K’s face scan has already failed xQc once or twice. When playing NBA 2K20 back in 2019, the facial scan tool drastically miscalculated his measurements.
And each year as we play the games, the facial scan never seems to be accurate. In essence, xQc became a completely new person as a result of 2K21’s attempt. At least the facial scan in 2K22 correctly identified his skin tone.

Despite having completely screwed up his hair and facial features. The attempt made by 2K23, however, was just another step in the wrong direction. This has led to some amazing reactions from the fans on Twitter. One user on X said, “The app has been a thing for so long and it’s still completely unusable.”
Another user criticized the game saying that people would expect the game to get better but even after the year, the game has still not improved. These reactions make it clear that the fans are not happy with this feature of the game.
