However, it seems like the launch of PGA Tour 2K23 hasn’t turned out to be what its makers thought of. Contrary to their expectations, and despite having a star name like Tiger Woods, the new game hasn’t succeeded in pleasing the fans upon its launch. There are some crucial reasons for this current situation.
Fans are not happy with a glitchy and buggy PGA Tour 2K23 despite a star presence from Tiger Woods

In MyCAREER, users can now obtain the status of a Pro by leveling up throughout their journey. They can do so by creating a custom MyPLAYER, starting out in the Q-school, and finally earning a spot on the Korn Ferry Tour to work their way up to PGA Tour pro status.

And of course, golf lovers can now play as their beloved star sportsperson like Tiger Woods. Interestingly, they can also choose to play as Stephen Curry and legend Michael Jordan from the NBA!
While the latest game looks quite promising, it doesn’t seem to be the case actually when it comes to the fans’ reactions on social media. Soon after the big release of the latest entry, Twitter got flooded with unfavorable responses from the players. Many of them are facing server issues, glitches, and inevitable bugs while loading up the title itself. Have a look at some of the reactions below:
Man is this buggy. Landscape sculpt doubles the magnitude of each sculpt until the next one is done, then the previous one reverts back. If you use undo, it corrects the last one down to normal, then skips it for subsequent undos.

Been trying to play, but when using the right thumb stick swing method, it will stutter and mess up the shot. This makes it very frustrating to play. Xbox series x
