I gave this game a second chance a while ago. The game's gonna stop receiving updates so I think now's a good time to get my thoughts out. It's not as bad as I remember it being but it's still not good. The gameplay is still dull and grindy, with the same old pay to win slop they encourage you to get if you want to actually stand a chance at winning races, whether they be singleplayer or multiplayer. Maybe the only good things that came out of this game were the new characters (Pauline, Peachette, and Kamek are my favorites), the cute costumes everyone gets dressed in (especially Daisy, God bless her soul), and it is the reason why Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is still kicking, with new characters and the shitty— I mean, city tracks you could tell were designed with a mobile game in mind. Some of you may see the last reason as a bad thing, but I digress. MKT's still bad and because nearly everything I wanted out of this game is in MK8D, I'm not going to miss this game.
