Okay, I initially applauded the fact that the dev team showed such early pre-alpha footage, but a 2026 release window… that is waaaaayyy too long to stay hyped for this game. That tells me this game is going to be extremely ambitious, and therefore probably bloated with a ton of standard F2P season-based bullshit.
I’d much rather just have a game with competent skateboarding mechanics alongside half a dozen or so locales. When I watched the pre-alpha footage, my thoughts were “oh shit, this looks incredibly fun! Just add in your textures and let ‘er rip!” Now I’m worried that they’re going to spend waaaaayyyy too much money and dev time on this, and it won’t yield the returns they’re looking for.
