Any game that says its a "10 year plan f2p live service title" is a giant red flag for me.

[ChariotFighter]

I’ve been trying to reserve my judgement but it’s tough knowing that EA hates putting out quality products these days. I think the dev team is probably perfectly solid though, and as long as the core skateboarding is good, AND customizable for all types of people, it’ll prolly be pretty sick. They need to incorporate a physics menu and hardcore features to offset the Fortnite/parkour bullshit though. I was initially super polarized seeing the goofy wall running and backflips but every clip I’ve seen of proper, grounded skating looks really nice, so fingers are crossed.

[gwillypdawg]

i hope that every curb is slappable and that there are more different kinds of inverts/handplants

[ZDBT]

So happy they asked you to be part of the team. If there is anyone I would pick on the planet to be asked to be the go to for the devs it would be you.

[Marshydarshy]

Skate seems like it's going to be fun arcade experience for messing around with friends, the big worry is obviously whether the monetization model will make it impossible to have fun unless you're constantly giving EA money. No way to find out until the game comes out.

[KILLROYCZOP]

When you look at all the skate 3 YouTubers now, you’ll see they don’t really focus on realism, but a lot of huge gaps, and weird wallrides, and just big huge things impossible things that are challenging and fun. That’s what is popular and interests the most people.

You also see that the community has found glitches to go really fast, and to get to hard to reach places. That’s where the parkour aspect takes place. It’s like that, but with more fidelity, and more stuff built in to allow the average player to do these things.

So obviously they’re going to cater to these ideas because it’s what will garner the largest player base. But on top of that, you can always be the person who skates things realistically too, that’s not taken away from the game at all, it’s just other stuff being expanded upon the core mechanics.

I’m a person who grew up trying to play tony hawk realistically, I love skate sims, and I’m really looking forward to this game because everything I want is there, plus there’s other shit too that can also be fun, and a new way to challenge and break up the monotony that a lot of these skateboard physics sims have today. Especially with what you’re stuck with on console.

[Joeywlsn]

The FTP is the biggest red flag ever especially considering we’re dealing with EA.

[FastwayIndustries]

Im so excited i dont even care if its realistic or not, i have session for realism, i just wanna laugh my ass off with my buddies but also skate and have fun with them too, this game looks sick asf

[Adam-M-]

I hope they have some sort of starter pack purchase with all the launch gear and locations. I understand that further development support takes money, so I expect to pay for new locations and equipment packs down the line, but at least to start off with I'd like to own everything for one price.

[abusive_kindness]

Bro the fact that the trailer came out 3 years ago is INSANE omg

[HRM.H]

I cant wait tbh. As long as we get custom skateparks the game will be great

[xXEuRKaXx]

all I know is I want to be able to rock some Osiris D3 2001's rockin a tall t and baggie jeans. I would do anything to be able to have the early 2000's skate aesthetic. thats the kind of skating I grew up with I hope they emphasize on the diversity of skateboarding as a whole

[Mike_Nowlan]

the whole "ever changing city" makes me think theres not going to be any sort of the traditional Story Mode.

[davidarco]

The biggest question mark for me is: Is it going to have a career mode? Being a free to play I'm afraid maybe they don't make an actual history mode, which is a bummer because it's the mode I play the most in every game

[benmcreynolds]

I hear free to play: and :it just means they will charge for every aspect of the game that otherwise would have been included if it was a normal purchased game. I want skate to be good. I love skate 1. Still play it to this day. I hope they focus on the right things.

[greybeard]

I just hope that the map isn't going to be crowded. If there's ppl all over the place doing their thing and we are just all in there together. That's gonna take away a personal experience.

[vicentenced]

I'm hoping there's an option for dual stick controls

[BIMONLAKI]

After so many years I lost all my hype once they revealed the direction they’re going

[realFizzz]

wow! 65k subs already! Feels like yesterday you uploaded your first SXL video. Keep up the grind

[Jokerasmaw]

Dude this looks awesome. I’ve been playing Session and while I love it, it lacks the video game aspect of it all. It feels like skateboarding and it’s fun for a period of time but it doesn’t feel like a progress based game with room to grow it just is what it is, I want a video game experience with my skateboarding game. Can’t wait, FRIG!
