The music in this game is absolutely incredible. The biggest thing that I really hope Nintendo adds is an option to turn the music up. It sounds so good when I can hear it but can be too quiet compared to the game’s other sound effects.
Still need to unlock Peepa, Swoop, and Fishbones (ugh).
Free roam is super fun from time to time. I'm in the mid 100s for the P switches. Don't know if I'll ever get them all, but it's more likely than the korok seeds back in the day haha
The more I play this game, the more I'm actually growing to love Free Roam.
I think the key is thinking of it as additional/bonus content, rather than the focus of the game (which, as always, is the Grand Prix / Multiplayer IMO, plus the Knockout Tours).
It's just so nice between races to switch to Free Roam and have a mess around - driving from place to place, exploring nooks and crannies of the tracks, etc. It takes me back to games like Twilight Princess where I'd run around Hyrule just for the hell of it, or MK64 where there was the odd thing to see off the main track (e.g. Peach's castle).
@Buizel
Yea, I agree entirely. The game is still about the races. The free roam is just awesome to have there to switch things up and go exploring every now and then.
Lots of videos on YouTube showing how detailed it is, too, right down to the behaviors of the npcs walking around and stuff.

Thank you! And congrats for getting three stars in the Knockout Tours! I hope you can finish the rest. I am playing only one hour every day, so my game progress is very slow, but I will definitely try free roam, before Bananza releases.
I played Knockout Tour online for about an hour last night. First time really spending time with it online. I think the best that I placed was 6th. Rarely do I make it out of the top 16 round. I'm decent at MK, but this is humbling. I don't know if I'll ever get a victory . It's amazing at how quickly you can go from 1st to 24th. It's very fun, and I really need to practice, because constantly getting my butt kicked starts to wear on me.
Apart from needing to spend more time with multiplayer, I'm really enjoying the free roam. More than I thought that I would. 2 weeks in, still really loving this game.
Yeah, I quit this game. You literally get punished for playing well in both Grand Prix and Knockout Tour. It's gotten to the point where the game is making me violently shake whenever I'm in the lead because I know I'll instantly get pelted with tons of shells right before I reach the finish-line like clockwork.
This is genuinely the most unfun Mario Kart game I've ever played.
"It is fate. Many have tried, yet none have ever managed to escape it's flow."
@rallydefault Yeah, I don't know. I think the power of the vibes wore off after like 15 years or whatever it's been lol. I'm just so bored of the dang track. But at least it's not koopa troopa beach
Just feels like a lottery game.
I get top 4 in one knockout tour, then bottom 16 in the next.
Offline the rubber banding is abysmal.
They should at least offer som settings for this.
An npc can keep up with you, pass you when you get blue shelled, and then virtually stopp to let you get back in top.
Not sure if was worth buying it in the bundle even. Not having to much fun.
@beat_me_up That's strange, I follow a lot of competitive players on YT, and they all say it's the most skill based one. I guess they all just lied or something because some random dude who's posted nothing but borderline offensive comments on their account said otherwise. (Yes I'm aware I'm falling for the rage bait, but idc at this point)
@VoidofLight
Yesterday I was hit by a blue shell and at least four red shells right after that, brutal. I have no idea how no npc was able to overtake me though.
