2 points and I'll step away.
1. the community is coming back to life slowly but surely, downloads for graphics and parks are crawling up to high numbers weekly I've seen shit with 100+ in 3-4 days.
2. Honestly, I feel we're to conditioned to having everything being tailor made perfect to how we want it, as antwan said, a skater adapts. If you don't like points, cruise with like minded people, if you hate the city skate caps, if you hate caps and the city you're kind of in you're own shit and should stop playing the game. But the point is skate 3 may not be perfect but the endless amount of range for creativity in the fields of personal style, graphics, C.A.P.'s and filming and how all these things can be carried out beyond the limits of the game is amazing in and of itself.
I won't say that anything is concrete fact, this is just my opinion on the whole ordeal that is Skate 3.
