Well, they could have done a bit more - Street races could be point-to-point with no rules, Pro Racing laps with some rules (e.g. no ramming of opponents), Off-Road could be a check point hunt with no defined track and you can go through all of them in any order. Bam, differences while all are about being "fastest".Xsjadoblayde said:Not wanting to spoiler anything here, Yahtz, but the entire driving philosophy behind racing and their accompanying games is about getting from one point to another the fastest you can.
I totally forgot there was a first "The Crew" let alone its story.darkrage6 said:How dissapointing, I liked the story in the first game, so to hear it's been cut down is quite dissapointing.
Hmm I dunno- if Yahtzee was going to review Warband he'd have probably done it by now. Pity though considering it's the diamond in the rough that successfully avoids so many of the pitfalls he doesn't like about Skyrimesque RPGs.Onliuge said:I wonder when Yahtzee is gonna play Mount & Blade, so he can join the infinite wait that we're all 'enjoying'.
Maybe if there is a period of no releases again where he can do a Retro Review on a game, then there might be a chance. But I wouldn't really put my faith into that happening at all, as he'll more likely pick a different game for that.Squilookle said:Considering the 1st Crew is itself a downgrade of Driver: San Francisco, made by the same team, it's hardly surprising that the 2nd one has even less reason to bother playing.

I'd say so too. He's never mentioned the series after all, and at least a few times now he's lamented that there isn't a game that does one thing or another that Mount and Blade actually does, and you don't say that stuff when you know about a game that solves it. If I didn't know better I'd say he's probably completely in the dark about them.Bindal said:Maybe if there is a period of no releases again where he can do a Retro Review on a game, then there might be a chance.
