SKATE 4 RUINS SKATER XL?

[EggieBeans]

Welp...
Skate 4 just got announced. Unless these Devs are commited they are going to have a hard road ahead. GL SKATER XL

In the end. It's mostly just going to come down to what the player wants out of a skating game. I say mostly because a lot of people will migrate to Skate because of the name. Which is understandable if they liked 3. Some will want a story with challenges n crap. Some will go the one with the bigger player base. And some will play the one that feels or looks the best.

I personally want to play demos before buying either one. I didn't like Skate 3, and I never played this. This one sounds like it would be more fun to play. But gotta consider the animations, how cool they look and the feel of doing tricks. I heard in a video that in this game, there's a bunch of slightly different animations for a simple kick flip, depending on how you do it on the sticks. Or it might have been Session that does that. I forgot.

You kiddin'!? Skater XL's moddability makes it superior to Skate, Skate 2, Skate 3 and Skate 4 combined! Why, before you know it, we'll be skating all the old Tony Hawk and Skate levels.

Did they announce that skate 4 is coming to pc?

[OthreeOfour]

ill put money on that

Nah, EA is dead to me these days, They'll probably ruin the game with microtransactions. even skate 3 was only even a thing because Miracle whip and Dr Pepper sponsored the hell out of it and paid EA the big bux. I can't imagine SXL, Session and THPS 1+2, are the only reason they are making skate 4, but it does feel pretty convenient to announce the game rn. They haven't even started developing the game and it could be a year to two years before we even see a skate 4. As it stands, I think all these PC skating games and even thps will have their audiences.

Don't know why it would cease. Some people are saying that if it actually does come it could be a mobile game that is brought to console and pc. Skatexl works well, though I find nintendo controller doesn't work for ♥♥♥♥ with it.

Lets be honest here. They are going to be using the animation based systems that require the "one analog stick for every trick" thing that was genius when it came out and now just behind. They are also going to bring in heavy microtransactions into the game for every damn brand. "Vans shoe collection - $20".
Let's also remember, they will not improve the game once it's released. They're not going to add new features, functions or anything they can't monetize.
EA and their devs can die off already. It's just the slowest death on earth.

Every time I hear someone say it's very behind, but the issue is it was one of the best heck it's the reason people wanted this game and Session, and for Session's sake they added a legacy controller for people like us.

Skate 1 and 2 literally had everything a person could want those locations as much as I like Session and SkaterXL they aren't even close on that right now.

More realism doesn't necessarily mean a better game, and Skate had colors that made the game pop that's something a lot of Indie Devs don't realize until it's too late.

Im going to have to disagree. more realism does mean better game for this. I promise you bro, if you actually took the time to master these controls, you CANNOT go back. And no, Skate 1-3 doesn't have everything that a person could want. It's derpy at best when you compare the flip tricks of this game.

I've gotten where I want to with both of these games, but the fact that someone even made a thread like this tells me how much pull Skate still has I hope these two games do well, but I know where my money is going if Skate 4 ends up being what I believe it might be.

Controls are great, but just like the old saying graphics !=(not equal) good game same with controls. Skate had a combination you're not going to get with SkaterXL or Session they'll be great attempts, but it won't recapture those feelings.

Session is everything skaters ever wanted ea skate to be lol. My message to ea is this:

Dear EA,
don't care, didn't ask, plus you're cringe

[Xpeezy]

skate is most likely a console exclusive

[ShANk117]

Did skate 3 ruin skate 2? This makes no sense, the more games we have, the better. If skate 4 is better than this that's a good thing, that just means we have a better game to look forward to in the future, and we have an amazing game to play while we wait.

Skate 4 is a cash grab by EA, EA doesn't care to get things right, look how crappy Skate 3 is. Skater XL isn't going anywhere. This game is great.

[Smithers]

lmfao they literally just announced they are about to start working on skate 4, it would be better to say ask a Skater XL 2 vs Skate 4 question ;)
