Disappointingly Easy

[SpaceDragoness]

I beat Blood Hound and Jack Knife with a 220hp Silvia without breaking a sweat, or having to plan out where i was going to fight them. Theres not a single opponent in the first part that really puts up any sort of a fight.

After i beat them, i had plenty of points to get all of the upgrades that get unlocked after beating them. They are level 7 according to the game. Went and just tried to battle a level 12 opponent (one of the Twister guys in one of the PAs) and i was faster than him by a good margin, with 280ish HP and hard tires. I miss the olden times when facing an end-stage boss got your heartrate up and made you panic, and any wanderer you came across was almost guaranteed to completely whip you on the first go.

Anyone else feel like its just way too easy? I hope the endgame at least poses some kind of a challenge.

with the progression gets deeper you'll face something harder, i have a rx8 and every upgrade possible before beat the past midnight cinderella but there's some bosses just absolutely demolished me

I am completely ready for Dejected Angel 2 electric boogaloo. They are nigh impossible to beat without some strategery and luck, and this boss just sounds the same to me.

Hopefully i can get to it before Genki tones it down for the people who are new to the franchise.

Yeah, I've been sent to Gapplebees a few times by some of the Wanderers.

First of all, the game is early access, they will make changes. Additionally, you haven't even finished 1/4 of the game yet. They did not release everything yet.

I thought we get access to half the game in this EA?

Not sure about the overall completion of the game, but pretty confident that it's stated how the current story in EA is less than half complete

I want to say the difficulty has been a mixed bag for me. racing lvl 6's some were unusually easy, some were/are almost impossible and luck based wins for me. im still stuck fighting WILD BIRD with my poor little bolt on hachi. it's a s15 on straightaways. i start behind it, then just watch it gingerly pull away. losing in 30-40sec. Zero skill involved lol. well maybe if tried to min max on gear ratios and suspension i'd have a chance? not sure, im still figuring that out. or perhaps i should be switching to a s13 or something turbo'd. not quite sure what the game intends for me to do to fight properly.

Feel the same as you, looks like everyone is playing a different game after I read the other topics, someone said thats really hard and someone said this’s easy.😂

I've raced a few cars which absolutely PWNED me with the upgrades that were available to me attached to my car. They went off as if I was parked with my Subaru BRZ upgraded. Then theres the racers that are slow and I won easily against them but my Suzuki had to be replaced because I started losing races with it because the rivals were faster in a straight line

[A_ Diversion]

alright. so i pawned in the hachi and my miata for the s13. built it within the same limits and won.... so yeah. if straightaways are a problem early on, i guess the answer is s13 or maybe the 180sx. i think almost everything else is locked behind story progression that early.

I'm over here getting absolutely toasted in my S13 to Wild Bird. I think I just need to tune my ratios for more top end, but I've lost to him a good 5 times already.
