It actually looks how a Dakar game should be. I hope the survival element will play a major role, not only racing

Always down to try dakar games. It's a fantasy of mine. But to do it in the 80's. There probly aint a big market for a throwback dakar game, tho.

Finally something unique. A breath of fresh air. I might pick this up. Not sure about full price, but I'll keep an eye on it. Thanks for sharing the trailer IbizaPocholo

To be honest, i'm kind of glad the game has a casual mode. I bought the last Dakar game from a few years back, and i just couldnt get my head around the rules, and what the game wanted from me lol.

 

[nikos]

This looks great. Definitely going to pick it up at launch.

fucking this.

man, totally the same.

i fucking love rally games, but that dakar game was just tedious and not fun at all.

i really would love to play a fun, casual but also a very engaging dakar game, but it seems this is impossible.
i rather stick to dirt 4, rallisport challenge1+2 and v-rally2.

these were the best rally games ever.

Looks decent. One to keep an eye on.
