    No matter how much I love the Gran Turismo series above pretty much everything else in the racing game genre, I can't help but thank Need for Speed for not only be a catalyst to get me into racing games, but also the sheer number of games of it I played (and liked doing so) throughout its many releases (no matter how janky they may have been - I actually was someone who somehow liked NFS Undercover on the PS2). Regardless of what they'll be cooking in the future (or no matter which game I'll go back to), with this series there will always be a way to find (or satisfy) your Need... for Speed. ;)

    I was expecting some background noisr with occasional entertaining or educational bit but the whole thing was interesting and I really loved every second of it. Amazing job. I have been feeling so much nostalgia for underground 2 and installed it again today before watching you. While following the video I had strong emotions both good and bad depending on the game but honestly all of the games I played did have many things to enjoy. It makes me put on the rose tinted glasses and remince on the best moments I had with this series. Thank you for your work.

    For a series in limbo once Unbound's online modes are done, I feel that there could be one more game that would work as a massive love letter. The Run's Cannonball Run/Gumball 3000 set dressings has a great premise that could be reworked if anything. Take The Run, rework it as a massive love letter to the series with past cities and past cars and rivals being brought back. Could be a fun premise.

    Spending at least an hour customozing a car is something I've become very in tune with. NFS 2015, Heat, MW, and Underground have my eyes glued to them stylistically. Crazy to think that all started with the PS2 port of Undercover.

    Your point on B2D in open world city games rings very true. Their binary nature of b2d explains my problems with 2015 and Unbound. (for the latter, It is mostly on me for having the RX7 as my favorite car, which is far too drifty for the late game races). I am so glad for UNITE turning 2015 into an almost platonic ideal version of it.
    Namco had a spinoff for Ridge Racer back in the day called Critical Velocity, which is an open world mission based driving game similiar to Driver. That never released outside of Japan. It had some Tekken-level FMVs and character designs, and a generic handling model that isn't like Ridge Racer's trademark brake-to-drift on rails handling. It even has Seaside Route 765 (integrated into the map) and the Crinale. While I wish the driving was more visceral, I think that not playing like the mainline is for the better. I cannot imagine Ridge Racer's drifting working in Critical Velocity's map.

    Iam feel so fortunate to have gotten my first PC when NfS Underground launched, later U2 and MostWanted filled up much of my freetime after school :) Truly golden times, and 20 years later I still think that these wherent just rose tinted glasses. These older NfS still live rent free on every PC I had since, only Heat with Unite mod managed to get me playing a modern NfS for more than few days. There where many after great series around this time but stuff like Horizon 1 was only on console which I never had. Only emulation made it possible to play these old gems in recent years, and again I saw why these games get held so high...

    On you not hating 2015's cutscenes, I also liked what it was going for story wise. It's a nice change of pace from the bog standard action plots of yore. It's more down to earth, and fits the fucko's doing drifts at an empty street at 1am vibe it has going on. It's kinda like having that one friend who constantly makes cringy jokes but you don't hate. It's what made the major downgrade in vibes and map in Payback stung.
    It's like the opposite of 2015, with only the handling and offline being the only steps in the right direction. The speed cards, truck commercial rock, poor sense of speed, the "would've been PG if it weren't for the swears" version of the Fast and the furious plot, and overall blandness. 2017 was a pretty great year for games, but not many racing games.

    • @JRC99
      @JRC99 11 часов назад +1

      I remember being so confused by Payback. Everyone fucking loved everything about 2015 except the physics/handling... So their response was to bandaid the driving and then toss out everything the fans liked about the game.

    I really enjoyed the Black Box Era of NFS, not only because they were the ones I grew up with on the PS2, but because almost each and every one of them had a different feel/vibe to it.
    NFSHP2 was basically a newer version of NFSIII.
    NFS Underground/Underground 2 were all about the tuner culture at the time while also introducing a storyline (the story of Underground 2 being a sequel to Underground 1).
    NFS Most Wanted and Carbon had that same feel but with a more gritty story and cops.
    NFS Prostreet had that racing festival vibe to it that some other racers, like Forza Horizon and DiRT 2, were inspired by (but without all the Junkie XL bangers in Prostreet).
    And then there's NFS Undercook- I mean Undercover... Let's just say I enjoyed the hell outta that game mainly due to the hilarious glitches that were present in the game on the PS2 version.
    Incredible documentary dude, I enjoyed it. Peace.

    Pro street actually made me a car guy and made me love racing games. I loved the speed races although would jump out of speed due to high speed crashes. I had a gtr r35 for all my grip races which really served me well.
