its not often ill beat a game and play through it immediately afterwards. this is the best NFS game in a long time. heres some of the things id change tho

1) fine tune drifting a lil more, its serviceable but not amazing

2) after you beat the game there's not a ton to do, maybe add a NG+ and let you do the grand finals at the end of the week instead of just tallying up all the cash you collected

3) customization in this game is really good, but more is never a bad thing

4) more features for photo mode, like being able to place your character and have them pose with whatever your current car is

man this game is so cool

one of the best nfs games ive played in a while. customization and overall feel is great. cops can be a bit overtuned but still manageable

soundtrack sucks tho

it took almost 2 years for this game to be playable holy shit

moment to moment gameplay is still a little rough around the edges, but the side content and main story are written more than well enough to keep me invested from start to finish

i would take a bullet for masaharu kaito

a communication error has occurred.

perfect guard/dodge didnt feel like they worked the way they were supposed to which can make the MA boss fights annoying. also grinding feels necessary but at the same time doesnt feel like it makes that much of a difference? because of these things, i have 0 interest in the DLC

on top of that the roster is questionable? no gundam MK II? no GP01 or GP02? only gundam DX, no gundam X or virsago?

its a start to fixing the problems i had with the base game, but it still feels empty. i hate the periodic update model

literally cannot explain to you what i liked about this dumbass game

better than DS2, and i also like it more than ER, but doesn't quite reach the highs i experienced in the other entries

worth every bit of praise it gets, i think. im only taking away half a point because it feels a bit lengthy, and the way the optional content was integrated into the game made it a little confusing for me to parse what was actually progression and what wasnt
