Worst NFS I can remember. And I seem to have collected many of them (all of them?).
No purchase from me.

Soundtrack is very annoying. I didn't find one song that appealed to me.

Try to drift with a Mazda MX-5 in this game.... it's a no-go.
Before you can enter a race or drift show, you have to go back to the garage to set your driving characteristics for racing or drifting. Which I found was a waste of time.

I expected nicer scenes, but it's all sandpaper and neon lights.

At first it seems appealing with those flashy over-the-top racing and drifting monster cars, but as the story progresses, you have to start from 0 and keep grinding for some dough to finally upgrade your car.

Too many cops. All the people seem to be hip criminals who drag you into their way of life, except your boss.
When you honk, people on the street don't even move aside, which is rather unrealistic behavior.

I also noticed, maybe because of the darkness at night, that I had a hard time finding spots and places.

It made me itch and thought it was a waste of time.
It was an annoying and not very satisfying experience.

On my first time in I was amazed by the combinations of artistic presentation, high fidelity, along with suspense, puzzle functionality and in a smooth running experience.
Along with the quiet ambience and having to figure out how that works works on your own. It’s amazing to see so much organic, mechanical complexity all around you. With beautiful sand swirls animations, thick purple, yellow, green and brown fogs, huge buildings.
Reminded me of the first Alien movie because of the art style and quietness. It has a kind of anticipation energy buildup to a big unknown event or explanation of why you are there and maybe what you are.
Still only a few chapters in, so I might alter some of my findings here.

Nice game. Great graphics. I really liked to take out the lights and sneak around, sniping targets down.
Sometimes can be a bit disorienting, like where to go and sometimes it was vague about where the goal is.
Maybe I was tired at those moments. Still, have not reached the ending.

Floating in space is so mesmerizing and scary at the same time. For me, this was a completely new experience. I just wanted to do it for hours!

I almost never feel compelled to use my energy to write about a game, but this one really deserves it!
My best game experience since ... er... e-v-e-r!
Best controller to play this game in my experience is: the Xbox One controller. Solid, snappy controls.
I played it with the Logitech F310 controller, the Xbox 360 controller and keyboard (off course).
Also played the soundtracks loud on my headphones and pc speaker system. Awesome tracks!

Such unexpected dorky fun!
