im realy sad about the configurations of this game, before buying it i got the first chapter to see if it would run in my potato of a computer, and it did, and i loved it, but with the resolution turned way down, so i buy the full game and try to put the same res i had in the free one, and it does not let me, so now the game has to low fps to play, i am realy confused as how this is even an issue, why not give the option to have lower resolution? it is clearly possible and makes the game acessible to a wider audience of players

The gameplay in this game is fantastic, it's like a modern successor to the drift racing of the PSP Ridge Racer games. It runs really well on Steam Deck and I really enjoyed it. However, you need to skip the story, it's utterly terrible. It focuses on a bunch of whiny teenagers/twenty somethings with self confidence problems that won't shut up about: "I don't know if I can do this! Maybe I should go and climb back into my mother's womb?!?! Waaah!". Then you have these other characters that you just clobbered on the track saying: "you gotta do this and you gotta do that or you'll never succeed like me!" and I'm just there thinking: "asshole, I just beat you by like ten seconds, shut up and go give your advice to someone that cares". Why would dorks like these even be drift racing in the first place? They seem like the kind of people that spend all day sucking their thumbs in Starbucks worrying about political correctness arguments on Twitter. Remember in Ridge Racer 4 on the PSX where Namco told these incredible, deep, complex stories for each of the four teams with a handful of dialogue lines and a few grainy, pixelated headshots? That was racing game story telling, not this nonsense. Skip the story, stay for the genuinely great racing.

This game is straight out amazing. I used to play hundreds of hours of "Aboslute Drift Zen Edition" and grinded till I got into top 10 in some maps. Now this game is like Aboslute Drift on steroids. Its AMAZING. I havent enjoyed a game as much as this one in such a long time. Its a masterpiece. So many options and the handling is just awesome. It feels like you master a new skill while playing along. I bought this game for 5 of my friends after playing it for 2 hours. You should do the same, spread this game, we need more like this. The only thing I did not like about this game is the music. Its quite boring and only one song on loop, but the DLC seems to fix that (didnt try it yet). What I do is just set the music sound to zero and listen to another playlist while playing. It's so much fun. Also I have not encountered a singel bug/issue/problem yet. Even ps4 controller support worked without any problems. Just an amazing experience, please continue like this. Thank you for this amazing game, made my year 2024 and looking forward to grind thousand of hours in it !

a love letter to the best of ridge racer - a game designed not to be realistic, not to satisfy some lofty idea of racing perfection, or even to host eurobeat... but to be fun! and damn if it isn't fun. chuck on some of R4's soundtrack, start an arcade time trial and lose yourself in the rhythm and dance of the ps2 era games without having to worry about memory cards or scratched disks.
