Need for speed payback is a good game but it has countless imperfections that hold it back from shining. What I liked is that it had a nice scenic view that unfortunately got old quick. The Map is dry and bland and it can be depressing especially since the city covers such a small part of the map. 70% of the map is desert so good luck with that. The story was super cheesy but I wouldn't mind all that if the dialogue was decent but no it was soo sickening. Whenever I heard Tyler or Mac speak I would feel like I'm watching power rangers with their bad voice acting and cheesy lines. Not going to lie most of the songs are rubbish and during races you'll want it off. The speed card system was definitely different but in a bad turn plus races had events that had their own cars and I hated that, you can literally buy the same car with just different tyres suited for off roading and that's BS I hate that they would force variety on you unnecessarily when they could've put a system that allows tune and adjust your car yourself for those races instead of buying a car with different adjustments. Customization was super I only wish that they had body vinyls. I give the game 6.1 at least it was able to keep me on my seat
