Bring back Skate
I’ve played just about every video game ever dedicated to the sport of skating from Tony Hawk Pro Skater to Today. I’ve skated all of my life too. Skate 3 as we all love was pinnacle. With that being said, tons of takeaways. Reverting and switching grinds is pretty smooth, impressive actually. Visually the game looks good, minus the goofy looking character customization. Even tho video games are in the current phase of micro-transactions, it doesn’t feel right in any skate game. I think the community would like to be able to customize their characters from earning it. That’s what we do, we grind and work towards accomplishments. Not just to pay up on some randomized loot box. I know yal have to make your money, but it could even be like a seasonal game “skate pass” or something. After first play it seems like it’s going to be pricey just to skate. Which the best thing about skating is that it’s free. Also Vee has to go. Not trying to be sexist or anything. But the last thing a skater wants to hear is some chick telling him how to get his line down or to do a trick. Again, not sexist. Women are great but cmon man. It just all seems too corny. “Two to make it true.” Yes we say that but again it’s the feeling, this all feels weird. Skaters, we’re dirty, rugged, we bleed and try again. First question this game prompted was how invested are you in skate culture. I put heavily, then I felt like my mom was teaching me. Love my mom, but I’m trying to skate. Going to play some more and think about more takeaways now. Thanks for all the hardwork and making this even possible EA! Now get back on your grind.
