Good but it's less the same than The 2. It clearly was supposed to be an expansion and they turned into a new game that feels bland. Will wait for The Crew 3.

Surprisingly really fun! The bigger variety of vehicle types compared to Forza Horizon and just about every other open world racing game (even if the number of non-cars themselves is kinda low) adds a lot of variety to the gameplay, and it has a surprisingly dense and lively overworld when compared to FH5 (and most modern open world racing games I’ve played, honestly). The customization is also really good; I missed the individual body part customization this game has.

This makes me wanna try Test Drive Unlimited, which also takes place in Oahu and comes from the same developers as this game.

installing a fucking ubisoft launcher feels like a computer tapeworm so im docking points tho

Game #133: The Crew: Motorfest

I was kinda biased towards Motorfest because of the map change but I was really wrong. Hawaii is great, visually it's astonishing, driving feels good and most playlists are bangers as well. Currently this and Forza Horizon 4 are my favorite racing games.

8/10

I liked. At first the gameplay is difficult, but over time I got used to it, knowing how to tweak the settings. It's very quick to complete the game.

I played a little bit of The Crew 2 last week, simply because I thought it was worth it for the unique map and the nice looking car interiors. I thought it was relatively good enough if it's stretching itself thin in every direction by featuring such a large map and cluttering it with way too many diverse vehicles. If it it stripped itself it down to solely cars, I thought it had the makings of a world class driving game (albeit maybe not a world class racing game) in the mold of its spiritual predecessor, Rest Drive Unlimited.

Motorfest is closer to that game. It's mostly cars. It's a smaller map. It's kind of a more direct Forza Horizon (FH5) clone but that's okay because again, Test Drive Unlimited walked so Horizon could run. I think the driving and car handling is way imporved. The map is stunning. The destructible environments make race events less of a curse than in The Crew 2. And this game just has a sense of fun and frivolity that Horizon is missing. All the little unique playlist touches are gorgeous and nice to play through. The festival environment in this game spreads itself much broader. The whole map feels closer to the tone of the Hot Wheels DLCs and the game is better off for it. I'm sure I'll get bored at some point but this is the antidote to the modern racer right here. A better Need for Speed than Unbound. A better festival racer than Horizon 5. Just stunning.
