Cash Grab with little hope

For starters choosing to make a free to play game has nothing to do with anything else other than trying to draw as much money as possible throughout an extended period of time It’s a business model

then the only objective in the game is to collect the game currency to unlock cosmetic items in the form of loot boxes With 4 simple challenge types
to get to the loot boxes you have to scroll past all of the items that cost real money which overtime will make you want to buy those items because your constantly seeing them. The items that cost real money also seem to be name brand and much cooler  than what you can get from the boxes that cost in game currency
THIS GAME WANTS YOUR MONEY AND THATS IT   aside from that upon the launch of early access the gameplay is fun but why wouldn’t it be They want you to play so it has to be somewhat fun they are missing a lot of different tricks so far and other things you use to be able to do on the board

The vert skating sucks, or atleast just needs work. Grinding coping is tough

no coach frank or pros of any kind 

lackluster first map

no story mode or offline mode it’s live service 

the biggest disappointment of this list is the story and offline mode  I’ve waited in a queue of atleast 5 minutes every time I try and play and then you have to wait for players to play a challenge which can take a couple minutes
the only positive I can come up with is the skating is pretty smooth Otherwise this game is a complete disappointment shame on anyone who backs this game up

I’m open to discussion about what I think but honestly you are part of the problem if you disagree

    buying anything is 100 percent optional, so they just gave you a free game.

    vert skating works quite well, you have a skill issue. there is however a pumping bug which can be fixed by restarting game.

    when you leave over 2 million players will be having fun without you ; )

    You’ll see the numbers dwindle, and trying to grind a ledge on a bowl is a nightmare but ok 

    and also, I won’t be buying anything 👍🏽

    lip tricks actually work very well, so that's definitely a skill issue. it works just like normal grinding you just need to know how to enter and exit correctly

    Numbers are dwindling are reviews have SKATE falling on their face atm. They missed the mark and targeted the wrong audience.

    Even if I am wrong about the vert You’re not even talking about the most important part of the post, they are giving a live service game with the intention of making money instead of making a fully done game with offline capability and a story.  It’s not about the game to EA it’s about annual profits
