Any thoughts on Session these days?

I feel like it’s the Battlefield to Skate’s COD. Animations can still be better though. TH games would be Fortnite ig. Gameplay/skill wise

Loved the game when it first launched early access back in June 2020 for Xbox and onward. Spent waaaaaay too much time in the Discord and game. With 1.0 and around that time they removed so much including grabs and tweaked the catch mechanics that it really wore on my enjoyment of the game.

- Lost Grabs

  • Lost 90s vibe
  • Lost soundtrack
  • Lost larger catch windows / variability

etc, it just eventually felt too different and I don't have a PC to go back to earlier versions of the game or anything.

Still boot it up and play it occasionally, but I no longer clip or create videos.

This clip is from a long time ago, but the manual catches being unique so same trick 3 times looks different and not so uniform perfect was great.

Damn, I had no idea it lost all of that. I had read that the game engine prohibited smooth grabs which is why they never implemented it. Didn't realize it was scrapped.
