Little Rant in defense of Skate 3..
I Keep reading all this stuff about how imperfect it is when really I think
skating just needs to be perfected on said spots.
I don't know that realism is key to building either..
if Anything Architects, Skatepark Builders and Fake park makers are too realistic.
If you can get something realistic on something abstract built that's the most fun to me in Skate 3.
I get realistic skating and low pop and all that but the opinions based around it all..
It's like living in a town in real life with plenty to skate but the only factor is
you only have block 4 stair sets and chest high rails.
Do you say fuck this shit, These stairs are too big.. build something better?
I wouldn't think so.. I would think you skate that shit anyway and eventually get something so damn butter
the spot's size never mattered.. OR Atleast come back to it later to get something done.
I get that this varies between skaters.. not everyone goes big
but I would think if it's all you had you would make the most of it in some way?
I guess this kind of ties into the whole
out of scale PC on S3 Convo but I think it goes together in saying.
Create a Park came around and everyone started cracking wise on the size of objects in PC in General.
We weren't doing this before Skate 3 as far as I am aware.
All I'm saying is people seem to be so picky about what goes into a game because it's a game
when really they should be utilizing what we have left..
It was built the way it is, it isn't changing so figure out how to skate it!
Actually before I wrap this up I want to tie in a little bit of reference to other games too.
Even if the spot was too big, the gaps were too large..
We Wrecked Skate 1 and 2 as a Community.
I seem to remember it being a while before the masses got into low pop.
That's cool, whatever.. Hop on the bandwagon.. but make sure that shit keeps rollin
over every damn spot you've been given you greedy children.
