Why does everything look like Fortnite and panders to sub 16 year olds?

Because they pay millions of dollars to have people in very nice suits research and study with age based focus groups to decide what looks and elements get the biggest reaction from the biggest marketshare.

This is Steep 2 obviously but since that game bombed they try it with a new name.

back in the boomer days, developers made games because they like the concept, art, gameplay and story themselves instead of dumping ideas on 30 focus groups and grinding the result into a single package.

Why does everything that comes out of Ubisoft have the maximum level of autism? Is this a canadian thing? It always seems like they're all about the autism.

Kind of the same as they did with The Crew 2; make a game that does one thing, then expand it to try to do everything.
I like this a lot, though, especially the Fall Guys type of mass-player events; gives me a little bit of Downhill Domination vibes (though no way will stages be designed with such precision and skill challenge.) Not much of a name and kind of the wrong introduction, but this is totally my type of gaming jam and I hope it's good.

Man fuck that battle royale shit.
I just wanted Steep 2. It was so chill. Cruise and those events at your own leisure.
The battle royale part better be secondary.
I'll fuck them up.

What's going on with Ubisoft? Their new games are looking really poor in the graphical department.

From the long preview it looks like there's regular single-player racing in it, and maybe some other sort of trick stuff. (Look for the section in the video where a biker is going solo and doing some tricky traversal, as well as in the very beginning he's doing a high-wire crossing, then also I believe there was a short bit where a boarder was just doing lip tricks?)

Looks okay honestly. Kinda janky... okay... really janky. But okay.
Man... I just want a realistic Mountain Biking game.
Sure I loved Downhill Domination when I was a kid, but I want something super realistic where you can tune your suspension, change out your tires for different situations, and also more realistic controls that require you to choose the best line. So something like SKATE, but with a bike. DO IT SOMEBODY!

Looked pretty good. That free-for-all downhill mode looks fun, could be the Fall Guys of racing games.

I think that it's because they're trying to be '' realistic '' while at the same time make things look fun and like everyone ain't just wearing t-shirts and jeans, so it all becomes this weird mess of '' lol such random ''.
It honestly looks like a jumbled mess.
In reality irl fashion is pretty boring and monotonous unless you're dressing up to be fancy, but they still want to retain the sporty feel.

No Switch again, of course. It would have been nice if the engine had worked out better this time (the Switch was supposed to get Steep and then it was quietly canceled after delays) but the mass-rider races and all the character options and just the overall look & stage variety, everything about Riders is another level up and shooting for next-gen, so it makes way more sense this time that the game is too steep for Switch.

This actually looks like fun. I'm not really into multiplayer that often.

Ubisoft really lacks all sense of originality.

The aesthetic of every single game on Ubisoft Forward was vomit inducing to me, and their presentations seem so lacking and dull that I found myself skipping through until a game trailer pops up.
I don't think I want to watch any more of their streams moving Forward.

Kinda feels like Tony Hawk arcade type fun rather than technical + friends. I wouldn't pay launch full price but I'll give it a run on discount.

Steep was really good. This looks like it's by the same team.
I am hoping the actual game is less... tryhard in aesthetic.

Probably day one on PS5.
I though for a sec it doesn't follow in Steep's footsteps and goes in a BR direction but reading the official website clears things up.
It's pretty much a successor with additional MMO elements which is fine by me.
I think Steep is by far the most relaxing current-gen game. Alright, it has some competition like Abzu. But it's still so relaxing.

It is like they try to do a Coolboarders/Amped3/SSX but Ubisoft can't nail the look and feel, they make it realistic-booring with wacky characters. What about the environments? Couldn't we see some loopings, lights, colors, insane constructions and some more crazy shit?

I actually purchased this game earlier this year because I was itching for some classic arcade goodness. The damned disc was scratched and wouldn't boot past the main menu. It's an underrated gem for sure though.
There is a $120.00 edition of this Ubisoft game. Jesus.

The amount of potential for mtx is unlimited.
Worth the gamepass value.

Would have preferred another Steep (I fucking love that game), but this looks neat as well.
Edit: Ok, this is clearly Steep 2 with mountain bikes added. Which could be cool, but my favorite part of Steep was the snowboarding (the wingsuit stuff etc was just a diversion that didn't really hold my attention much), and it seems like this has far less of a focus on that.
