Be warned- the game gets crazy addictive. You might plan to just check it out for a few minutes, next thing you know you've sunk 4 hours into the game 😀

But, it does start off easy. There are Easy, Medium, Hard and Extreme (and Ninja, if you're top 1% and gold medal every Extreme track in the game, something well beyond my capabilities).

You start only doing Easy tracks. Eventually you unlock Medium, and later in the game you'll unlock Hard, and then Extreme. A good chunk of the game is on Easy and Medium tracks. These have a different cadence to them. They're not hard, the obstacles are more for fun than technical skill, and they're just a blast to play. Big air time, flips, etc are all part of the experience.

But when you eventually unlock Hard tracks, you'll have to buckle down and take things more seriously. Air time is your enemy. You have to learn how to bunny hop, this is crucial. Throttle control, flow, learning how to endo, and even endo into a bunny hop is one of those skills you'll develop over time with practice.

THANKFULLY, Ubisoft hired one of the best Trials players from the community to make a "University of Trials" section in the game, where it teaches you various techniques and skills, and eventually, highly advanced skills. Dont ignore University of Trials! Try to get an A grade on every new course where its teaching you a new skill.

Once you hit the hard tracks, the game completely morphs from a high flying, carefree time into a highly skill based obstacle course. And THAT is where the true addiction comes in.

Pro Tip: Be sure to open Ubisoft Connect (Uplay) in game and claim the free sponsor, and if you have Uplay coins, grab some other content while you're at it. But the sponsor provides more contracts which help you gain XP, which is needed to eventually unlock Extreme tracks around Level 87. Doesn't take as long as it seems.

Work / driving simulator.

The Switch port is solid, but I prefer arcade or kart racing when I'm driving a vehicle.

@Magician Yeah, I've already played the hell out of Mario Kart 8 (275 hrs), Crash Team Racing (325 hrs) So, I've been on the lookout for side stuff, just for something new or different.

Also have GRID, Mini Motor RacingX, Meow Motors, Sonic Team Racing (I can't get into the weird looking cars.)

So... because I buckled and gave in to FOMO, I bought Super Mario 3D All Stars.
F-ing limited time available stuff...

Give me a heads-up if you're going to send a request please.

ThanosReXXX

@Losermagnet Yeah, I'd imagine he is. Then again: because he always displays such a friendly, face-splitting grin, I'd probably forgive him...

Resident Evil and Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch (kinda regret getting it, the game just feels..... odd)

Mudrunner is strangely addictive in a slow-paced fighting against the environment kind-of-way. I really enjoy the feeling of achievement you get when you reach an objective because you have to work for it

Sephiroth and Geno Mii Costume. Pro Tip: Don't buy sephiroth

@WaveWitch The usefulness of gyro in a game like DOOM, where you're limited to x-axis aiming, is pretty severely limited. It's much more useful in any game with free aim.

Currently Playing: Metroid Prime 4: Beyond (NS2); Corpse Factory (PC)

@Marioman2020 dude I'm absolutely loving sephiroth. I was worried I wouldn't since I really only have like 3 characters I use but he's great!

TheEagle

@NintendoByNature

I don't really like him. Can't really get the hang of Octoslash and since his neutral special is charged and you can't store it, Don't really like him. His final smash Is good Tho

@Marioman2020 for sure. I'm just glad the first dlc character I buy I ACTUALLY like. I suck with 90% of the roster lol
