Potential
I just want to leave some positive feedback and also give ideas on how to make certain aspects of the game better imo. First of all I love the direction the game as a whole is taking. What we want more than anything is to be able to play the game how we want with our own style. They've hit a sweet spot with the way the low pops work in this game so you can blast or do realistic tricks on the fly. I think iit could probably be more robust but a slider setting would of made this more annoying so I'm glad they did it like that. Adding things like the "loose camera" setting is another huge step in the right direction but the camera itself is still very limited. Instead of presets just let us move the camera wherever we want. The other things the game needs are things people are already asking for like loose or tight trucks, board size, more body types or sliders, less cartoonish graphics etc etc so I wont harp on those as much. As far as gameplay goes i'd like to be able to pinch my krooked grinds. Maybe add a feature where you can shift you're weight to either side so you can pinch whatever grind your doing. This would make krooked grinds look and feel amazing. The other thing with grinds is that bump outs are a bit wonky at times and they're totally broken in transition lip tricks. To this day theres not a skate sim thats done lip tricks right and its a shame. Smiths and tail slides slides look great especially if you power slide into them, but the dismount/bump out/roll ins are completely broken. You either lose all your momentum and come back in at a 90% or you fall out and land a foot down the ramp. Idk really the only thing I can say is watch someone like grant taylor do a 50 ft front 5-0 In a bowl and you'll know what it should look like. If they can somehow make the dismounts out of lip tricks smooth/ add more features and customization/ continue to give us new maps that aren't paid early access I truly believe this will be the best skateboarding game ever made. This game has so much potential but you never want to have potential for too long. Thanks for reading my feedback and belly aching.
