They've destroyed the skate franchise but it's all we're gonna get.

EA stated at first that this wasn't skate 4, to attempt to avoid backlash for a clear copy of fortnites store, monitization tactics and pretty much the whole style of graphics, but they sell things that relate to all the other skate games (Is it supposed to be skate 4 or not?). They have foccused so much on microtransactions way too early on and even made it so that you have to scroll through the store to get to the lootboxes if you want to open them through the menu, just to tempt people more to buy basic branded cosmetics that should be earnable. I really hope that they put more care into the game in the future but at this rate I've got no hope. This game is gonna be a microtransaction sim before a skate sim, wouldn't be surprised if they add advertisements and a premium plan to block ads.
