I remember liking the idea and most of the execution of this game from years ago, but finding it too difficult to get any skill at before the tracks get too much.

Nowadays, I have ♥♥♥♥♥♥ to the point where games that were particularly hard for me, aren't anymore, so I figured I'd give this another chance. I tried the tutorial level to brush up, and immediately remembered the problem. The actual tutorial level is so narrow for the entire run, that it should be something you experience at the end of any reasonably balanced game. It's maybe 2.5X the width of your vehicle. I don't think any race in F-Zero GX even gets half as narrow as the tutorial level in this game. That's insane. I'm not interested in the frustration that would be required to get good at this.

If you're not playing this in VR you're missing the entire experience of what it really means to be an F-Zero pilot
the sense of speed comes at you at high octane. The adrenaline was spot on. The immersion of being the pilot was addicting. I need more!! The bad reviews must be from those who didn't try the VR experience. Don't let their misleading information steer you away from this game. Grab yourself your VR headset and strap in.
i'll be 100% coming back for more.

ive unlocked all tracks but 3, yet i only have 2 gold cups, 3 silver and like 7 bronze, this game is extremely challenging due to input, track set up, pov, ai (even on easiest), bloom (could be turned off). yet it is very entertaining, totally recommend

10/10
