This game sucks.

I know this is still early access, but my alcoholic grandfather who has never skateboarded can throw together a better proof of concept.

This version of skate brings shame to the other versions before it.

Like many others on this forum, I’ve tried to find the good in this game but just about everything is terrible. From the game mechanics, the “skate city”, the embarrassing voice acting, to the thought (or lack-there of) put into the Challenges.

Its almost impressive how Skate 3 from 15 years ago is miles ahead of this piece of pathetic excuse of a Skate game.

The mere fact you need to scan a QR code in-game just to provide feedback just shows the level of UX being considered at development team at Skate. 

I saw somewhere - this version of Skate feels like it was put together by what a corporation imagines what skateboarding is like, but never did any actual research or effort.

EA get it together.

  • I think the controls and flow of tricks is mostly fine (not perfect but totally acceptable).

    But the game has absolutely no soul whatsoever. It's not something I want to kick back and sink several hours of simulated skateboarding gaming into. The style and 'culture' of the game doesn't resonate with any form of skateboarding culture that has ever existed, not now, not the 2000s, not the 90s, not the 80s, nothing. Soulless corporate slop.
