Where do I start?

Ok I know we don't get to have Skate 4, so no Story Mode. But this lacks Skate Culture, why is there a disembodied Robot Voice guiding through my Skate. experience? In the age of Evil Big tech and AI overrunning everything, I think its in Poor Taste. The clothing options are ok for free items, I wish some actual brand stuff would be free but oh well. I don't the like big Congratulations screen that pops up every time I unlock or achieve something, like can we just tone that down? or turn it off?

Severely lacking anything resembling a Super Ultra Mega Park, the Roof Spot is sick, but it just ends so abruptly? Feels like there could be a lot more there. And in that vein, its lacking a big long run like the Observatory, The Quarry or Danny Way's italian Dream. Oh yeah its also lacking Pro Skater presence and Character interaction which kinda sucks. 

I've found some of the Challenges to be wildly difficult and janky. Like there sometimes just isn't room to gain enough momentum to pull off the required trick. Also its very inconsistent when I'm judging my grinds and jump gaps so I'm just constantly bailing and trying over again til I get pissed off. Feels like you could throw us a bone here and make some of the Challenges have a smoother overall Flow. The right stick can be a little unresponsive at times, granted I need more practice, but as an avid Skate 2 and Skate 3 Player its lacking that bit of fluidity where I felt I could just cruise around and Crush anything in those games.

Very frustrating glitch, the Camera will randomly switch to Low, especially sometimes at the start of Challenges, then I have to quit the challenge to go to the menu to fix it, which is annoying. 

Now Some Good Things, I like the style of the City, I think including the Higher Level Skyscraper Stuff is sick, the crazy air flying tricks are fun. I'm really enjoying the soundtrack, I enjoy the Grabster music feature for sure. The Parkour is sick and I really do like how you can actually get to everything on the map. I see a ton of potential and awesome types of future Challenges bringing this thing to life.

Missing being able to grab onto cars, definitely missing Death Races, missing Hall of Meat, Really want more fun Big Scale parks with huge vert and Long Runs that will go down in legend.

All this being said, there is the basis of a great game here and I'm pumped to see what gets added and how the culture grows, The Smartest thing to do will be to listen to the fans, thats how we even got here and thats whats going to end up getting us an Awesome game in the End.

At the end of the Day tho, we all wanted Skate 4, and it would be so **bleep**ing cool with this generation's Skaters and the Global scale of the Sport. Skater Fortnite was not the Dream...
