I swear for the first 75ish races this game was like a 10 for me...
AND THEN
I don't know what the actual fuck happened but this game started being so damn hard and the AI would cheat like crazy. I had no issue with the first 75ish races on hard, quite fun, not too easy but not too hard either, but past 75 shit got absolutely insane and I couldn't even win on easy WITH the best car in the game AND all the best upgrades.
Race 95 was fucking evil in particular, 6 laps with the worst rubber banding in the game, yall I lost first position in the first lap and then driving almost perfectly by lap 6 I was still in 2nd place cuz that fucker would zoom past corners at 300 km/h somehow.
There was another that was 7 laps which was evil as well though less so.
So yeah laps 75-101 were atrocious...
AND THEN IT GOT EASY AGAIN RIGHT IN THE LAST 10 RACES.
WHAT THE FUCK. WHAT DO YOU MEEEEAAAAN?
Seriously it's like hours of hell the game started to feel bad for me and just went okay okay fine we'll let you off easy at the end
Somehow this game is supposed to be like 13-17 hours, this one took me 21 hours to beat ffs.
Maybe I'm just bad but I swear I was not driving that bad. I just had shit luck I guess, which sucks a lot cuz this game really is fun in a way all the modern ones aren't. I was playing nfs payback just to say I beat it but this one I was doing purely for fun y'know?
Like it was genuinely fun. The handling is really smooth and feels great, the graphics are nice to look at, the customization is pretty good, the cars are cool, even the city itself is nice and I didn't mind the repetition at all I just felt like I was getting better at them the more I played em since I knew what shortcuts to take and which not too, learned when to slow down and how much, stuff like that, it's cool (though should say it's not an open world game, there is an open world here but you can't free roam cuz they couldn't finish it in time I believe so it's just standard races)...
I just wish this game didn't turn evil out of nowhere for like 6 hours lmao.
Still liked it overall I guess.
