Just a badly designed game, I applaud their focus on making it "authentic" but ive never had a skater crumple at every 10 seconds trying to turn or hitting some invisible edge, there is no human authenticity if im on my deck and start to feel off balance I can self correct but in this game you rag doll at the drop of hat . there should also be some simpler controls setups for beginners to get a step up, I would not reccomend this to anyone that doesnt know every skating foot position pore trick already as you expected to move a lot of controls to get into basic ollie flips and a young kid interested in skating is gonna struggle shutting them out this game, the environments suck, sorry the skate series had them over environments, I kind of feel this game spent too much time on stick control /real world trick control authenticity it sucked all the video game fun out of it, if I wanna work hard ill go skate, if I want aplay a video game, I wanna not feel uninspired, or bored,
