Wreckfest

I would give it a mixed rating if Steam allowed it. The game itself is fine, a great spiritual successor of FlatOut, with amazing physics, driving controls, graphics, and soundtrack. But what turned me off are the long and repetitive events in the campaign: Most of them require you to play 3-4 times on the same track with increasing laps: first 3, then 6, then 12. It is boring, and getting T-boned on the 12th lap, making you restart the race, is annoying. Some of the tracks are pretty good, but there are too many oval and figure 8 tracks, which were reused too many times. Demolition derby events are even worse. They are not exciting at all. It is painful in the same way it was in FlatOut. You miss the opponent by an inch or don't have enough speed to deal damage, and the whole event is just a cat and mouse fight, chasing each other for minutes until planets finally align and have a good line to crash into someone. Can't sell owned cars, so if an event requires a car type, good luck, grind for money, replay events. There are not enough variety to make it fun. Overall it's a great game with terrible events and design choices. I am looking forward to the sequel and hope it will improve upon this game.
