Been playing the game since this morning and already formed an opinion that it's a very unforgiving game if you're not playing on easy mode.
I even got bored of the story mode quickly as I swear finding those letters is easy for two but then the third is always impossible to find even after scouring the whole maps back and forward to see if I missed some shortcut, which they seem to be totally unobvious shortcuts.
The time trials seem somewhat easier once a path is worked out but again are unforgiving if you make one screw up it basically can cost you the whole thing and that's on easy mode! Not sure if the time trials change on the harder difficulties but just found it very difficult.
I got all the characters though so I couldn't care less for the story. Yet, whenever I play easy mode in races I always manage to almost (half way) lap the cpus, yet on normal I can never come first I'm always around 3rd-5th place and well, on hard difficult of course I always come last. The game seems very unforgiving as one screw up costs you the whole race if you can't recover quickly from it on normal/hard. I've gotten more used to drifting and getting boosts from it but I always end up messing up in someway trying to actively do it and time it right. Seems like the cpu in 1st always is way ahead of the rest of the racers too (I do like no rubber banding but how am I supposed to catch up, eh idk).
Is this game aimed for kids? Feels like a kid unless they're so some of kart racer god would get frustrated quickly by it. I do like the game but I seem to find myself stuck playing easy mode, if not normal at just barely ever finishing in 1st at that difficulty. I'm not the worst at Kart racers either, I'm a pretty above average player in Mario Kart, certainly not one of the best but still very good at it. They play very differently with drift mechanics though so maybe not the best comparison. Though really, surely I'm not the only one or maybe I'm just lowkey trash at it... As the title says, anyone else find it difficult?
