    Here's why I've drawn the conclusion jerr
    Let's look at our trick base back in OG and Skate 2
    Would you say Wallies and popless tricks were less popular back then?
    Actually it's not really a question.. our production value and number of members
    has gone up significantly.. less realism because of less members
    Which we had our realistic skaters and our fun oats whatever you want to call it skaters
    and even then realism as defined by others is never the same..
    I'm saying realism and OATS are different.. while OATS can be realistic I think it's more of a fun less confined version of fake skating
    Realism as I've seen it in the community was slowly defined, first real stance
    eventually popless, perfect lock and now it has expanded a little bit but overall
    I hate to see creativity lost because of restriction I know people are more capable and I guess that upsets me
    I can draw whatever conclusions I want and no one has to agree
    But I've been around for a while, I'm just making sense of it..
    Agree or not I think I've made my point and am done responding.

    I think, that in many cases, creativity wasn't lost because of restrictions, because these restrictions were the drive for some people to choose EA skate over Tony Hawk's ride in the first place.
    I also think it's still the drive for many peeps to play.

    Like me, I think many kids out there have come up with really new stuff (out of their box too), but simply didn't like the way it looked or had another reason to not use those tricks. But that's a matter of taste and another topic (;

    Oh and yeah of course you can draw whatever conclusion you want, of course we don't have to agree.
