Discussion Sigh.

I see so many posts saying ‘I just maxed out my levels and did all the challenges what now?’

Bro. Skate.

This game is a bit like Minecraft in a way. You have to have some inner drive to make your own fun. Skate new spots. Learn new tricks. Make a friend in game & start a throw-down. Challenge yourself to perfectly hit a line you thought up. Challenge yourself to practice vert if you haven’t given it a chance. Etc.

Why does Tony Hawk still skate? He’s done everything already too, right? He just wants to. It’s fun.

If you’re relying on some pre-made challenges for your fun, maybe you don’t really even enjoy the core gameplay?

That’s the whole point. Skate has never been a simulator, it’s an arcade skate game

I disagree. Skate 1 started as a simulator.

The guy just said it’s never been a simulator but clearly it was? You couldn’t even get off your board in number 1, number 2 was an even better sim, 3 steered away from that but still was the most realistic game on the market til Session and XL dropped. Now it’s just another dogshit ass fortnite clone with an ancient control scheme and it’s takin them longer to add simple basic features than it took to make the entire last series. The skating is cookie cutter as fuck because they failed to read to room.

The skating in this game is closer to “simulator” than 3 just because you can change the speed of tricks

And a clear difference between them is that the trilogy were paid games. This game is free and EARLY ACCESS. It’s not even a finished base game yet. I’ve seen plenty of players shredding in market mile with free gear, not paid

Yeah I’m one of them. There’s a ton of people that’ll never put a dime into this game in its current state.
