    Payback problem was that everyone wanted a storyline based on the fast and furious movies, we just forgot to specify to them that it was the first 3 movies and not the 3 last movies

      I actually kind of enjoyed the game, the story was over the top, and super cheesy, but i felt like it was kind of a charm of the story. The handling was fine apart from offroad races, i wouldn't say it is one of the worst games, it's flawed, but i think it was fine

      @@rodracer4567 The Family vibe is a cool touch, but it's kinda too much, like I said before, everyone is your friend or is just cool that you are there beating everyone, a bit of antagonism could work well in addition to that, kinda on how Unbound worked but more fleshed out, the last 3 nfs games have this problem, they kinda end a bit too abruptly, payback is left on a cliffhanger, heat kinda just ends and unbound leaves too many loose ties, it's not like on most wanted where everything build up on the last race and then the game put you against the wall in a final pursuit where the objective is just survive until mia clears the blocked road, and when you escape, even though with some questions left your biggest feeling after that pursuit is just "holy shit it's over and I survived that" and you feel satisfied and not questioning in a "wait... that's it?" moment

    I think the funniest thing about when I played this for the first time, I played it right when they were introducing the abandoned cars that you would find in free roam. They’re like the bait crates you find in the world as random police chases. Get the car, escape the police and you keep the car.
    First car I got was an RX7 and I used that as my main race car and upgraded it to the max rating. I was out running supercars with a ‘90s tuner car and ended up beating the game with it. I don’t really hate this one like most people. Had my fun with it but see its issues.

    • @alieffauzanrizky7202
      @alieffauzanrizky7202 Год назад +6

      I liked the game only because of the progression. The progression of beating bosses one by one by racing their crews first, added with a considerable increase on difficulty by each chapter just make the final race feels super worth it, knowing how much you've done just to reach that level. Though the story were a bit ridiculous, and the offroad events feels unnecessary, it's a great game, just not worthy to have a "need for speed" as a title.

    I think Ghost Games really had an uphill battle when it came to taking over from Black Box. They stumbled with 2015 (I hate the fact that it was - and still is - always online and there were some technical issues at launch) and they crashed and burned with Payback, but they got back up and redeemed themselves with Heat. I think, had EA not taken them out back to join Black Box, Visceral Games and Pandemic Studios, they really could have done something great. I am happy with Criterion at the helm but honestly EA needs to stop handing NFS over from developer to developer and let them work their magic instead of what they have done with the IP since the early 2010s.

    small nitpicks: the cutscenes when during jess' missions can be skipped and the cinematics when you wreak a cop can be turned off in the options, along with muting the characters during races.
    Beyond that, I agree with everything said in the video. Also wish to mention that I got this game after a friend convinced me to try it out; came to love almost everything, especially the offroading much to my surprise.

    Funny, but as much as people hate Payback, it's the closest to what we'd expect an NFS game to be. A revenge story as simple as a stick, racing and different disciplines to give it more versatility. We don't need Underground, because that age has passed and any try at reviving it will end up becoming Heat and Unbound, which are full of cringeworthy and pointless conversations and make no sense whatsoever, not to mention the uneven difficulty spikes

    I remember a 16/17 year old me being incredibly hyped for this game to release. Pre-ordered the deluxe edition even. I was a tadbit sad however when the game finally came out and didn't completely live up to expectations. Don't get me wrong, I still played the shit out of it and really enjoyed myself while I was at it but I just couldn't ignore that this game was pretty lacking in delivering what most fans wanted and I could never really shake the disappointment of paying €80,- for this game with it being like it is. When I'll build a new rig I'm absolutely going to revisit this though. Had a lot of fun playing this and even more in the photo mode!

    4:02 Finally someone who agree games doesn't always need to be realistic to "feel good"!
    Sadly I'm not sure if we'll ever convince everyone...
    Call of Duty is a perfect example. While not ruined its gameplay is damaged by making the camera shake excessively, from running to shooting, to the point I fight more seeing the world then my enemies, because that's rEaLiStIc. It's an arcade shooter on who has the best aim and others and you add mechanics that harm those gameplays? Really?
    However, despite many of us complaining this in MWll (2022), you have no idea how many liked it. If you even dare to say CoD is an Arcade Shooter first and realism is just an overkill (even if you just point the mechanics), the backlash you'll have is just overwhelming...
    People don't know what's good for the product and only want what THEY like in every game...
    Realism ≠ better, folks!
    Yes I can also like realism, but only if it give sense.
    It's funny how MW2 (2009) fixes it by only having realism in graphics. That's it. MW2 is beautiful to look, and play, then the modern ones. Maybe the simple texture that doesn't make the soldiers blend (easily) also works.
    That said, BO2 cartoon-y world actually makes it more fun to "engage". I don't know how to explain, but the looks really grab the fun!

    This reminds me of what happened to me recently. Context: I have never play any Forza game, ever.
    I was visiting a friend’s house, and he booted up FH5 (we’re both car guys). He was playing it for awhile, and I noticed that the game has a lot of NPC chatter. Like, a LOT. It’s goes from your NPC friends talking to you about the festival, to the radio stations talking about the festival, to “I-just-don’t-know-who-anymore” talking about, you guessed it, the festival.
    I was like, “is it just me or this game has a LOT of talking for a racing game?”, and my friend just laughed at me and said it felt fine for him. Idk, man, that certainly kills most of my hype for that game. I ended up not buying it, it’s just not my type of game.
    I bought Grid Legends instead, because sim racing (lmao, ok, I know what you’re thinking, but I was going to get GT7 later, until GT7 came out and it was an online game and that blew off my hype for it as well).

    Imo Unbound is the worst NFS game. Sure, Payback definitely has its flaws like lootboxes and does lack some qualities compared to the older games, but Unbound is just bad. They're trying to be diverse and inclusive, which is fine, but they've focused on being diverse so much it actually impacts the game in a negative way. Almost like the game is being too diverse, and it honestly doesn't even feel like a NFS game. At least Payback felt a bit more natural and loose unlike Unbound where the "diverseness" feels forced. Again, I do not have a problem with diversiveness in games, but it's too much in Unbound and I hope the next NFS game will be better.

    7:14 - it would be fun to make a character, something like in forza and assign yourself to event type and the other two would be filled by those characters, so if you choose that your character wants to race then Miller stays as Getaway driver and Mac is drift/rally expert. If you choose to be a drift expert then the Tyler will stay as racing expert and miller still would be a getaway driver. Basically - swap your character with one of those guys and the other stays.

    the main problem was the casino machine for cars upgrades, the rest of the game was ok (if compared to the '10s need for speeds) and the progression system was quite challenging to invite you to race again and again. some problems (like the cutscenes of exploding cops or the fact that you must drift to take every corner unless they are large) came from Rivals (i found it cool anyway). i don't understand how is it possible that NOONE is not able to recreate something really good like it was Driver San Francisco, it has a perfect driving system for the genre and also the story was good

Experiencing the main narrative through each of their perspectives during their missions is what makes the game very immersive. I love listening to their dialogue during free-roam when I’m driving through silver rock, liberty desert or even mount providence while music is playing in the background. These guys have very unique and interesting personalities in a way I can relate to each and every one of them.

    I remember watching the trailer and it was in some way bombing me with GTA vibes (I am not going to say Fast and Furious, because both franchises have been influencing each other since the first Fast and Furious). I was really okay with whatever the game had to offer but it had a HUGE problem: Las Vegas is okay as a destination, but can't be a standalone easily. It needs other cities to break up the monotony of the desert. The drifting is also another bad decision... And the card upgrades? Not going to comment on that. More than a bad idea and an idea that would alienate just anyone.
    So I'll say it here because this gives me the opportunity to do so: What did make NFSUG2 so memorable? Of course it was the vehicles and the crazy customisation options, not to mention the music. But what REALLY made it stand out was also its setting. The city wasn't realistic. Huge buildings, sometimes not fitting the analogy of the vehicles, lots of lights and colours that represented that early 2000s wave. It was like watching one of these Phonk videoclips we are so fond of nowadays... And the city itself was a mixture of Miami and L.A., even Las Vegas at some points (and I'll dare to say Tokyo too). Back then, they managed to somehow make the gamers actually CARE about the cities they were playing in, even caring about the continuity of the game's universe (and this was the case with many open world games back then). We literally cared about where the gas station was, even if it was unusable in NFSUG2. We used to care about where the Burger King restaurant were. And we always knew there was a Mexican restaurant in our neighborhood.
    I've seen the remaster mod and it's awesome! But it lacks the unrealistic shower of lights that made it look SO 2000s (and back then, I remember that rl streets had that much light as well, because we were in an era of consuming and dreaming big. I was in fourth grade when UG2 came out and I remember comparing the roads to the ones of my city, while big construction works were being made all over.) This 2000s unrealistic futurism was what made it unique! It didn't try to be extremely realistic and it wasn't trying to depict the cities in a serious tone. Because a realistic city would also mean poverty, unemployment and uninspired buildings due to the crisis we live in.
