How come I took flack for this same opinion? I'm in the pre alpha and it's coming along nicely. Same feel of skate 3, tight mechanics, I don't see the big deal. It's free. If you don't like it don't play it what's the big deal?
People are upset they arent getting the same type of game the IP is known for. Unfortunately the IP is being used to push a different type of product. I do think people are justified to be upset about that.
As a gamer who wants more to play and wants to pay less, i am ok with this particular IP(which i dont particularly care about) becoming ftp, even if it degrades the overall experience. If this was happening to another IP i enjoy, I might be more upset about this.
