Steep - Before You Buy

[@jeremypayne5078]

I just got this game about a week ago, and I'm glad I listened to the comments of this video rather than the video itself. Hours of fun. 8.5/10

[@rulasmania]

Could you tell me more bro ?

[@Davefloatedaway]

I've been playing steep for around 4 years and am thrilled to learn people are still buying the game. Because of the much more realistic features than other sport games I find steep is much more appealing to irl skiers/snowboarders and if you are interested in riders republic I suggest you watch lots of gameplay first as it is much less realistic and the gameplay is designed for treating it as a normal video game rather than a simulator. If you are also interested in MTB but prefer a more realistic experience then I highly suggest the game descenders

[@vIMONST3RIv]

i disagree i can play this game for hours its so addictive and the graphics are unreal, really good game and ubisoft deserve credit

[@rashidhumine]

Do you still play the game?

[@holdeenyo8914]

I’ve been playing a year. Almost everyday. Just wandering the mountains. With friends, sling down slopes and doing other stupid shit. This is one of the most entertaining games I’ve played since For Honor.

[@HistoryBluff137]

Perfect game to put on an audiobook or podcast on while playing. It manages to be both chill and adrenaline inducing at the same time

[@FHGryphonIRL]

I feel like he didn’t quite give the game justice

[@jamesflameson]

Yes. There's a lot more to it than just tricks and challenges. My favorite part of the game is the exploration. I'm a huge fan of the alps IRL and I love exploring where no man has gone before. Steep really does the exploring bit wel and I really feel a sense of progession if I look at all the dropzones I unlocked.

[@harryjoyce9324]

yeah. he said that the dlc was the only way to unlock other sports but if you do enough races you can save up money to buy the sports and also, he said that it gets old quick even though they now have 3 different maps with lots of areas

[@alexander-it6mx]

Don't take this video as a guide to buying the game or not, he says you see it all within a couple of hours and that is far from true, he doesn't mention all the variety of challenges and mountain stories and that each mountain has it's own aspects, when you finally get to Mont Blanc or Denali you can look down at the others mountains and then you will know that it's worth the money and if you play with friends it's super fun too. This isn't just a sports game, if you love nature or mountains (like I do) you will absolutely love this game, because the feeling you get while standing on top of the mountain or while going down the mountain at almost 200 Kmh is incredible. I seriously recommend this game 9.5/10 game for me. :)

[@unitlime7205]

I disagree. I've played the game for hours on end and it's still entertaining me. I do think the season pass is not the smartest idea, but you can get around it. you can still go off jumps and around the whole map and miss so much as you're rocketing down a mountain at a million miles an hour. I strongly dislike the paragliding but the wingsuit eliminates that issue. it may seem like a "one trick pony" at first but if you just give it a chance I promise you'll have a blast. it needs some work. 8/10.

[@UnDeAdKiLLa1126]

This actually makes me very angry, obviously this guy hasn't played the full extent of the game. If he did then he would have included the mountain stories, the variety of challenges, and the FULL scale of freedom you have in the game. I mean seriously you can go anywhere you want using the walking feature and helicopter tickets (which were not mentioned). Also not to mention you don't just "see it all" after a couple hours of gameplay, each mountain is designed with its own unique aspects and layouts to give you a whole new experience in each mountain you visit. Anyone who is reading this comment just remember that this is a very biased video and a very dull and vague analysis of what the full game has too offer, there is so much more to the game then he or I have said so please do more research before you buy the game.

[@ChrisDinwiddie22]

UnDeAdKiLLa1126 and remember they are adding two free maps that are gonna be about the same size. I love the game personally. It's like with any game you gotta be into it to enjoy it. It's not for everyone.

[@profdrklenk]

I don't get it. You guys pay the full price for unfinished games (AC, Battlefront, ...) and don't even complain. And with steep you get a solid sports game and everyone is like "uh I'm not paying full price"...wtf

[@profdrklenk]

[@gamerwizard5003]

Dr Klenk ok so what is it missing

[@NJHixion]

*gamer wizard* When a game has a season pass and the developers know exactly what's in the season pass shows that the game is *still* unfinished. That's always been the case for all games in these past years and so forth. The fact that they know exactly what's in the season pass shows that they chose to put off content from the main game on purpose and release it to the public at a later date when enough ppl have bought the season pass just to charge you for more money for the so called *"Extra Content"* that's coming into the game as *"DLC"*/*"Expansion"*. They even show you what's in the *"Season Pass/DLC/Expansion"* with the complete list of what's in it. That right there is a red flag that shows that they pulled things from the main game just so they could sell them off for an additional cash grab from their consumers.

[@gamerwizard5003]

Jared Strife no that means they know what they are going to add Jon the game for doc that doesn't make it unfinished if a game has a story , an ending, characters, and gameplay then it's finished

[@cujo.856]

This game is way to fun for this review. Obviously it might not be a game you play all day but it's a game you might play after raging or getting exhausted of the game. The graphics are unreal great game.

[@Lampboi-jp6dt]

I like to play Steep right before bed. It's not a shooter where I have to be on my toes, or a story driven game where my mind is trying to guess at where it's going while I'm trying to sleep.

I personally found that steep is really addictive. All the different game modes and customisation really gives you stuff to do and feels really rewarding. I love all of the sports they let you play around with and really makes every level feel unique and different the huge mountains and parks give something for everyone to enjoy. With a big enphasis on beating past times and working your way up a leaderboard me and my friends are constantly trying to one up each other with score may that be points or time and really is enjoyable alone and with friends I bought the game ages ago and have had a blast playing it and I haven't yet bought any dlc which is surprising considering how many hours I have put in. The game gives you tones of skills to master and control over every trick you pull and gives you a but tone of customisation....... Like it's absurd, you can customise things like your skis to your helmet to the boots and even what's attached to your backpack. The game will give you endless hours of fun no matter which of the sports you focus on. A genuinely good game that is still enjoyable and content packed 3 years after release Props to Unisoft for making a great game and this video as it is a good video. Ow btw the graphics are "FUCKING MENTAL"

Nick Bosshard I feel you man, 30€ and I would definitely get this game. Guess I'll have to wait a year or so for it to be on sale although you can already buy official keys to activate the game for 40€.

[@joshuagregory3717]

Nick Bosshard People are drastically clueless to what this game offers, it's a game that has limits in exploration, of course, but 30 dollars for a game isn't enough for a game like this, the company has a deadline and employees to pay, and money to keep servers running and overall huge bills and taxes to pay. Everyone can complain about how small it is, but it's jackshit reviewing if this many people think the game is small. You could get 100 hours+ on this game as a side-player, a laxed game if you played it after a few insane matches on say, overwatch or battlefield. It's not a game you can play 6 hours straight and get good high off it. People need to understand that the world runs on money and thats not Ubisofts fault. If anyone wants to complain look on how sega and n64 games costed 60-80 dollars back then. To sum it up, it's a full game and if its not a game for you dont complain about the fact that the price is too steep for your paycheck. Play it if you think you'd enjoy it, don't put the company down for doing what it's supposed to do, live on a decent paycheck.

GoPro view has a perfect sound quality, you can hear the character brathing, wind and stuf on GoPro's microphone, it's amazing, but hard to control.

What I will tell you is that it is a lot easier for the average person to pick up one console, pay $60/year, and have ONE launcher for all your games. That's it. You turn it on, open the game, and play. On the other hand, that same person could go pick up a good PC at a heftier price, have to download several different launchers for his/her games, download discord, etc. and it just isn't as appealing to the mainstream market.

[@BasBastiaansen]

Jamie Sturd lmao, skiing is probably the worst in the game when it comes to realism. In the tutorial, you have to pop WAY to early when going over a ramp. The sense of speed is all wrong: going uphill loses way too much speed, not just a bit but way too much. There is a awful 'speed' limit, you won't fall or have any problems whatsoever when going straight off a steep slope, untill you reach a specific speed and you'll fall and die. I could go on and on, there are tons of tings I can bitch about. There ain't much fun in a game like this when there are so many design mistakes.

TeqHDcasper yeah i agree i snowboard my self and i'm more of a freestyle park type rider (man made ramps and half pipes etc.) my biggest thing with this game is why do they not have more than 1 park? I have 4 hours on record with this game and the only big park i found was the tutorial one :P

[@freddyfox5002]

You dint find the half pipe?

[@catastoph2939]

I actually want this game. I'm being genuinely serious. I mean, personally, I get pretty tired of the chaotic multiplayer shooter games that are running the market currently. And I have had days where I just don't play any multiplayer games, and just play singer player ones, like Fallout 4 and No Man's Sky (supposedly NO Man's is multiplayer, and yes I did get it....... not regretting it though 😋) but even those games are limited in content. This seems like a blend of it all, a chill single player game, mixed in with chaotic multiplayer (if you're racing with friends and everyone is just messing around) once I have money saved up I will define lay get this game (I will be getting Overwatch, Battlefront, and For Honor... I will hold off on Battlefront for a bit longer because I really am looking forward to Battlefront 2 if they are making it, and I've heard Battlefront is really grindy) Anyways, Steep looks like an interesting game, and I will definitely be thinking about it for weeks to come. Here's a cake 🎂

I actually really like this game. I find it very relaxing to just ski around or chill with friends. However I wish it had an additional Arcade option so you could play it more in the style of Amped or SSX to do over-the-top tricks.

Everyone should already know by now, no pre-orders. The last game I pre-ordered was Fable 3, and that was the final straw for me.

[@666bluegreen]

I stopped per-ording games when the included bonus was just something simple like an added skin for in single player. If they have extra missions included, I would per-order it (its nice having a little extra scripted game-play sometimes). Other than that, I am perfectly happy to wait a bit to see if the game is really good or not, especially after waiting for No Man's Sky for years only to be let down (it is still a fun time waster, but other than that it is just plain). The only game I might per-order is The Last of Us 2, although I don't know if it will be close to what the first game was like.

The credits in MK 1 had like 20 people. The credits in MK X has like 500 people. DLC is kinda necessary. Games can't stay $60 forever.

[@iBliizy]

Erma Gurd I would call steep at release a full game. they are adding additional sports to it down the line, they just happened to mention what they were. there's nothing about the game that feels incomplete. I've enjoyed every minute of gameplay. the smooth and fast quick travel can lead to moments where you'll restart one challenge over and over for an hour just trying to add 100 points to a run of shave 2 seconds off your time. I haven't had a game I could pick up and enjoy instantly for however long I have to spend playing it in a very long time. I can see peoples complaints about the hame... but saying it's not finished or incomplete because they are adding to it is just silly. you don't think call of duty has the mp maps already planed out at the time the game comes out. only difference is Ubisoft announced what they'll be adding to the game.

"After 2 hours you get bored" FFS, I played the open Beta, yet I played it for its full time and had fun with it. What I didn't like about the open Beta though, is the fact they didn't implement the other mountains and more events.

[@TheJohnboyhunter]

A Random Crab It was a beta, they're never going to give you loads of stuff to choose from or do, that's the whole idea. They give you a chance to play part of the game (like a demo), in the hope that people will buy the full game, having many more people playing should help to find and iron out any issues/bugs etc that testers may have missed, as well as make tweaks to gameplay before release.

[@Bravelycold]

I played the beta, I believe I made all the jumps of the game, I spend like 30 hours playing it, I like it a lot, its a nice game, but know that I know that it has a season pass with more sports, meh, I will wait until the game has a 50% off

That doesn't make a lot of sense to me. You like it but you're not getting it now because of the season pass? The full game is the same as the beta but bigger and with more stuff to do, even without the dlc sports. The gold edition (with season pass included) really isn't much more expensive. Also, what do you mean when you say you made all the jumps?

[@bucksrcworld8119]

here i am 6 years later and the game is now $8 at disc replay, so I am definitely buying this game!!

[@XioReaper]

Gotta disagree on this one, I feel the game only becomes repetitive and like you've "seen it all" only because you don't play in the competitive nature the game warrants. I know many people who get frustrated or just don't like the game because of its realism and force to practice. I do love SSX, however this game brings a new challenge which is more refined than arcade like games. Also if they added the intentional dlc in the initial launch, then what would they have to use for dlc... Outfits and maps :/ I do agree if your not into grinding to get gold medals or not into a competitive style extreme sports game, maybe it's not for you. I do still think though it's definitely worth trying out. I enjoy the hell out of it.

Oh god it really isn't. Snow is by all means still a good game but nowhere near Steep (saying as someone who got the game for free, so basically both f2p (incl. season pass)). Even though the jump mechanic is a bit questionable it is less questionable than Snow. I also know he claimed the steep wasn't arcady but more like a simulator well he clearly hasn't been skiing it is a very arcady skiing game. And why do people hate paragliding, I fucking love it. Getting to the top of mont blanc with the paraglider is so relaxing and gives you this great feeling of accomplishment.

I got this game in 2017 and spent so much time on it without the season pass. It is one of the best games I've ever played. It's good to just sit back and relax playing the 5 minute long tracks trying to find the best routes. You obviously don't get out of your house if you don't appreciate these winter sports

[@dylanporter8105]

I think if they made the game a bit more arcadey it would be so much better like reduce the gforce damage, give you more control over the paraglider, make the wingsuit fly a bit more than fall and make the tricks move faster.

[@Hudson316]

There's a few weird things with the G-force damage... like rolling your snowboard over some rocks at low speed counts as G-forces and knocks you over after a few feet.

[@UnknownFME]

The g-force dmg is already very arcadey, the only issue I see w/ g-force dmg is when you are on rocks for some reason.

[@noney81]

Dylan porter would be cool if there was like a difficulty setting like in skate 3, so the harder it is the less impact you can take. I personally like the more realistic style.

I’m getting this ‘cause I ski, and I love skiing, so, I want to do it in the virtual world, too

[@ryanband0]

I think this game is amazing for the right customer such as someone like myself. I am obsessed with skiing. I can make several good arguments for this game but remember this is still rooted in my opinion. 1. The exploration is endless. I love going out and finding new lines to try and perfect. While doing a wingsuit challenge I started veering off to the left to fly and explore. I found a hole in the cliff and tried flying through it. Once I mastered that I found another, and another until I found like 20. I was able to string 7 into a sequence and make it into a challenge that no one I know can complete. It took hours for me to successfully do it in one run. I think about the amount of time that went into that, then I zoom out and look at the size of the portion of the map I'd explored and it was so tiny. There are so many lines for each sport out there it's almost infinite. It all depends on how into winter sports you are. 2. The different types of progression allow for all the playstyles and bridges the arcade style we know and realistic style people have wanted. You can do some outrageous cliff jumps and tricks that are fake as hell. You can crash hard a ton of times for points. Or you can take it slower and ride the mountain the way you would in real life and rank up the free ride progression. 3. The customization is great. I love being able to throw on my favorite pro's skis then go into go pro mode and throw down lines that make it feel like I'm watching one of his KZbin clips. It's also just incredibly immersive for me in first-person. 4. Riding with friends is really easy and fun. Finding lines and challenging each other or racing is great. When chatting with my friend it literally feels like you're hanging out on the mountain with your buddy talking about which lines to hit next or checking out something you saw during the last run. I can continue but I think it's clear that my biases are why these things are so great in my eyes. These features may not float your boat and I totally get that, but for me, it's a 9/10 game. I absolutely love skiing, I'm addicted to it, (and video games) and haven't been able to ski since I wrecked and broke my hip and neck so this is a perfect fix to get me by until next winter. It's a nice relaxing break from more high-strung games, for me it's competitive matches in Rocket League.

[@idv22]

Judging by the very mixed response of people's opinion on this game ill give it a fair review. TL;DR: Game looks good but controls, gameplay and challenges are bad. Don't buy. Beware: Ssx comparisons! I played Steep when it was free on playstation plus in January. I'm a completionist and I did manage to get platinum on this game so no, I didn't just play it for a couple of hours. I poured probably closer to 30 hours into the game, and straight away I'm just gonna say I HATE this game. If you're ever planning to finish this game 100%, don't bother cause you won't feel any sense of accomplishment. But I will mention what I liked, disliked and why. I'll start off with what I enjoyed about Steep. The mountains are beautiful. Even on console the graphics are really good and the game has a great atmosphere. Rendering distance is also good and visuals are pretty much top-notch. Steep is a very good looking game and in my first 5 minutes I was pretty impressed. When riding you can always look back at your run with the replay which is very good. Since the game has almost no loading screens you can instantly replay your run, and the slow-mo works well. Being able to also view from a first person perspective is a plus. My only complaint about the replay is that you can't change weather/ambience and you can't set up a dolly camera/stationary camera in the replay. The camera always follows your player which is a shame. I would've loved to place a camera in the middle of a steep hill and watch as my character whizzes by the camera, which brings me to another thing I like about Steep; speed. The best thing about Steep gameplay wise is how freaking fast you can go down hill. This is what I found the most fun in the game. Just going balls to the wall down mountains however, I do really miss a speedometer. Even Ssx3 which came out in 2003 had a speedometer (not a very accurate one, but it made the game more fun). Clothing varieties and fun costumes are cool but lack the ability to just change colors and the last thing I can say I really like about the game is how fast you can retry challenges. Hold down the triangle button and BOOM! Back at the beginning. No messing around in menus or anything. Now for the critique. This will be a pretty comprehensive list of everything I found annoying and unnecessary about Steep. Let's start off with well, starting the game. I mentioned Steep has almost no loading screens and yeah, almost no loading screens in-game but starting the game up takes what seems like forever. I didn't time it but I wanna say it's about 2 minutes just to load up which is pretty bad for a modern game. Next up, controls. The snowboard controls ok when just going down a hill but the jumping and trick mechanics are horrible. You have you release the jump about halfway on a ramp and start a spin or flip before you're in the air. It blows my mind that nobody from Ubisoft though that this needed to be changed. The braking is also annoying as you almost always steer to the left or right when you try to brake (besides, who actually likes to grind down to a halt when going 200km/h+). The skis are similar but worse in my opinion as you lose a lot of speed just when steering. The tricks are very bland and gets old quickly as there aren't very many, just simple grabs, flips and spins. I get that this is supposed to be a more "realistic" sports game but it kills the fun-factor. There should have been a lot more tricks in the game and maybe a way to purchase new tricks or earn them for completing challenges. This brings me to the point of exploration or rather lack thereof. When going down the mountains you occasionally find small villages, glaciers, pillow fields, lakes and some houses. All the villages are empty, there are no people, no lights in the windows, nothing to look at and they all look the same. All the glaciers are the same, just a bunch of small jumps too close to each other. Frozen lakes are just sheets of ice you can't control your character on and pillow fields are just bumpy hills. The coolest places I found were the abandoned hotel, abandoned bobsleigh track and haunted resort. None of which were ever visited upon completing the 115 challenges in the game. Drop points are also a pain in the ass. You're supposed to pull out a pair of binoculars and search for drop points to find more challenges, but you have to be very close (1km I think) and the map is huge. You're better off looking up a guide on where the drop points are or wait until you are level 25 so you can freely fast travel. This game world lacks flow. When you go down a hill you'd expect there to maybe be a jump at the end but usually you just go straight into a wall or fall down so far you take damage or die. The game has no rails or stairs or fallen trees or anything you can grind. Real shame. If you've ever played an Ssx game you'd know how good map flow and rails makes the player never have to remember the layout or brake, but in Steep: "Oh, gotta slow down here cause a wall is coming" or "Gotta go left here cause on the right you fall 150 meters". You have to try all the paths to find out where you can and can't go. It's frustrating for new players. Challenges are weird. Some of them are too easy and some are way, way too difficult for casual play. (La Fieuse, Fallen Rocks, Flying Squirrel and Vallec Village were the ones I found the most frustrating). Spending 2 hours retrying an 18 second time trial is the worst way to make a game feel long. The game makes you think there are races but there are none. The "races" are just time trials with some npc's (ghosts) to show you how well you're doing towards getting gold/silver/bronze but you cannot interact with the other racers. You can't hit them, or slow them down or make them fall, and for some of the extreme challenges you dont even have them in the race which I think is because Ubisoft didn't even bother recording ghosts as the challenges would be almost impossible to finish before a ghost (La Fieuse and Fallen Rocks). The trick challenges are decent but again, some are absurdly easy and other are frustratingly difficult. The trick challenge I spent the most retries on was Glacier Hurdles which was not very fun as the glaciers have too many jumps too close to each other and dont let you build up speed. Let's get the elephant in the room sorted out, paragliding. Or as I would like to call it, paragrinding. It's slow and unintuitive to control. When all the other sports go blazing fast changing over to paragliding feels like a choir just to get the last trophies. To gain speed you need to fly close to mountains and NOT move up or down. You'd think maybe rocking back and forth would gain speed but it doesn't. The only way to move fast enough to get the gold on some of the paraglider challenges is to fly close to a mountain for the speed boost and only go left or right. I had to look up a guide to figure out why no matter how fast I was going I always lost the races. In short, paragliders are useless anyways since you can just fast travel up or down the mountain at will. Damage: You take damage when you crash or fall from a big height, it's indicated with a "g-meter" and it's a cool idea but begs for a rework. When you take damage the screen goes monochrome and you have a hard time seeing checkpoints if you're in a race. You also take damage just for riding on rocks which makes no sense. Sometimes you'll crash into what seems like nothing and looking back at the replay won't reveal anything, I'm guessing some hitboxes are just a bit too big. This was especially noticeable in the Flying Squirrel challenge where I had to fly very close to trees and I'd get ko'd in mid air. But what annoyed me the most about taking damage in Steep is having to watch your character slowly tumble down the rocks and knowing that you cannot do anything to stop him/her. There should have been a recovery system implemented so you can still have a chance at finishing a race just because you made one little mistake. In some of the later challenges you have to ride perfectly and one tiny mistake will mess up the whole run leading to a reset. Some quick mentions to other issues I had in the game are as follows: Music. I know everyone has their own music taste but I couldn't recognise any songs except these three: Freestyler, Rockstar and Ride of the Valkyries, the latter which was just played once in a mountain story and never again. Most of the songs were bad and I ended up just muting the game and listening to my own music. Mountain stories: Weird missions where you do various activities. Activities include, following someone who is so slow that you ride past them and end up too far down the mountain and unable to get back up, going to different coordinates so you can go to different coordinates, smashing some snowmen and wing suiting through some rings. There are 30 stories and about half of them are just following npc's that are really slow. Progression and levels: The game has no real sense of progression. When you level up all you get are cosmetic items and more challenges. There are no upgrades or skill increases in the game. Different clothes, skis and snowboards all have the same physics and stats. Online: The game is online only and I don't understand why. I saw some people in the easy races but as I started doing the hard challenges I never saw another player ever. So for about 85% of my game time I didn't see anyone. You can match up with someone but it really doesn't do anything. Other players move very choppy depending on your internet connection too. So here is my final verdict. Should you buy Steep? If you got it for free with ps plus play it for an hour or two but don't invest any more time as you'll feel ripped off from a free game. Fuck this game. I uninstalled it right after getting platinum and I will never touch it again.

It's 80% off right now (December 2020) on both Ubisoft and Steam. You can get all the DLCs and the entire pack for 6 quid. Absolutely worth it, especially at that price.

do not listen to this review!! this guy is bogus af!! this game is absolutely beautiful and the mechanics are spot on. this is well worth $60 even if you dont get sledding nobody wants to sled anyways. snowboard, skiing and the wing suit is why you play.. buy this game put on some really good music and just ride down the mountain. what else could you ask for in a game about riding down mountains. buy buy buy!!!

[@philippkuhn2515]

its his opinion. while this is your opinion. 2 seperate matters.

[@randywilde1526]

no seriously buy this game!!!

[@randywilde1526]

Philipp ong his opinion sucks and he should not be giving it out

[@randywilde1526]

ghostriley1093 nobody cares what you recommend schpoad

[@philippkuhn2515]

that is, again, your opinion.

[@JoeWuhPuh]

I must have put over 10 hours into the Beta's and I like it a lot, I can see why people don't and I don't think I will buy it at full price either. But I will definitely buy it and put a lot of time into it

[@gameranxTV]

Glad you like it!

[@dantheman7468]

Screw you stop ruining games

[@JoeWuhPuh]

Dan Theman ?

[@dantheman7468]

I was exited, now I'm not

[@aktan4ik]

Might be worth only if it was built around VR.

[@MrREAPERsz]

It would've been better as a skateboarding game. Or even skating sounds better.

[@jponz85]

ak4ik I agree... didn't even think about vr steep until now. good idea

[@stephendorn6348]

Anyone remember the game called Cool Boarders 3 ? It was on ps1 and I loved it

[@KMS127]

OK, so this is really annoying, he sounds extremely (idc about being somewhat bias but he was over the top) bias. I personally love this game, i ski and snowboard every week and this game just really is what i wanted. If you ski or snowboard I HIGHLY recommend this game. Sure it can get boring but just dont play hours on end. Sorry for kinda being hypocritical but i think someone who relates more to the game will write a more accurate review

[@lenny3577]

Damn I was excited for $12 dollars on Xbox, but ps4 has it for free 🤧

[@tiffanydriessen]

It's amazing, can't believe you don't like it.

[@gameranxTV]

Glad you like it though.
