like i understand where you are coming from.
but ive made my opinion coming from a background of playing beta's, fresh releases etc.
this regardless of them trying to make it a "new" game or revamping the series however you wanna put it has expectations.
i expected them to change the style of the game, the way it feels to do missions and even how the community would interact with the game itself versus the last three.
what i didnt expect was something so different that it doesnt feel like im skating in the prior 3 games.
they couldve done whatever they wanted if they didnt mess with the core feeling of skating/vert riding and make everything feel guided and arcadey.
