Steep

Steep already looks and feels bland enough to play as-is; I don't get a sense of weight and feeling from the tricks, and it all makes me want to play SSX instead. The open-world stuff is okay, but not my thing, and only serves to keep me playing longer than I otherwise would have ever considered. The unlockables aside from the more bright and garish ones, including costumes, almost don't matter, and I certainly can't care about what anyone else is wearing (unless they're wearing fucking costumes obscuring my camera) because I'm going to be going down the mountain anyway. Only in paragliding and wingsuit jumping (sort of) does it really get a chance to show off to me, and no one else will notice so why even bother? And while controls are fine on mouse + keyboard, I'm sure it'd feel marginally better on controller.

But what really kills the game is the G-Force meter, removing any sense of speed, momentum, and fun from the game. Steep gets borderline unplayable with this. Whenever I land from anything but small jumps, all my momentum gets killed and I have to build it up all over again. Why have freestyle tracks when I'll just feel miserable every single time I land a trick? It's baffling, and very quickly sucks any motivation I have to play the game away. I want to play this game to do cool tricks and go fast, and if even fairly-sized ramps are going to make both of those a chore, then why even bother? This isn't worth the price of free.
