I love skate 3 and have been super excited since they announced the game was in development. I even played the alpha on PC but it was fairly sparse so there wasn’t much to do. I’ve heard the beta tests now are more filled in but I have yet to get invited to those ones.
Any other skate 1/2/3 fans? Any thoughts on the new game?
(For people out of the know, this is not a newly released game but it was announced in 2021 and has been steadily in development since.)
Unfortunately I’ve heard the new skate has forgotten what it set out to do with an over emphasis on off board mechanics. Man you should really check out skater XL or Session though. In my opinion they’re then natural evolution of the genre.
I tried one of those and I thought it was way too bland. I think it was Skater XL? Session looks neat but I’ve heard it’s way too hard and I’m not really looking for a challenge
And idk what you mean by “off board mechanics”? Hall of meat or…?
Yeah the mechanics of skater XL are good but there’s no story or anything. I don’t think session is any harder than skater XL and it does have a story mode.
Yeah, off board like hall of meats, parkor, building, etc.
Ah, yeah for me it’s all about the skateboarding and now that I’m used to the 2 stick trick system I don’t think I can go back to the skate 1 & 2 style.
Im still excited to check out skate 3 and I hope it does well. Just feels like I’m not the target audience anymore.
