    www.dashlane.com/whitelight for swerving those nerds trying to watch you through your webcam. So this Need For Speed review was a very experimental project, like many of my recent videos, tell me what you think. If it's received well, I might go on to do the same for as many recent releases as I can, including DOOM Eternal.

    This game introduced me to racing games and turned me into a gearhead. The story is cliche but good enough to keep you playing. The day/night cycle made you choose if you'll play it safe or take a risk. Cop chases were thrilling and fun, even though it may be too challenging for new players. NFS Heat wasn't a masterpiece, but it was good enough, which is why I'll always remember it fondly.

      The Run did something completely different, and people either loved it or hated it. It's crazy to see such a divide in players' opinions. Even though the gameplay was linear as fuck, it felt almost like you were playing a movie. There would probably only be like 12 people buying it, but I'd love them to make a sequel, with more of an open-world feel. It'd be cool if they could do something like The Crew, with a very scaled down version of the US.

    What I like about Midnight Club and Tokyo Xtreme Racer series is that they give the opponents some sense of a character. They have backstories, personalities and their own reasons for street racing. They're all pretty simple, but when there's so many of these, together they end up forming this overall idea of what street racing, the main setting of the game, can mean to different people. That's how you portray the social aspect of street racing, how you give an impression of the overall setting to the player. It's a great way to show different sides of the culture, showing the different mindsets, age groups and backgrounds the people have and how this one interest of theirs brings them all together to create this interestingly varied whole.

    Overall my only real problem with the game (Meh Story Aside) is rather subjective, the music. There are some alright tunes but personally there was only about two that i liked to speed to. Hell, Payback (the mess it was) had some that made cruising the open world worthwhile. Again, a subjective issue but seems they went for what would compliment the setting which i guess i understand. Beside that Good Game Ghost.

      I agree with the music. I mean heres the thing, alot of those rappers I've listened to and they range from meh to me liking their shit. BUT this soundtrack seems much better for driving around flexing and showing off not speeding around. Again its subjective because NFS has always had hip hop and from artists popular at the time and this times no different, they didnt change much but the flavours of hip hop has. They should honestly just let you import your own soundtracks like GTA5 did since the music preference for NFS is so disjointed now or diversify the tracks more.

    I would like to see Need for Speed go back and capitalize on some of their older ideas. For instance, the crew mechanic in Carbon. It gave your rivals more personality, and it made you feel like you were not doing everything on your own. The challenges for your territory was pretty fun too. I feel like there's already so many good ideas they could use if they just look back.

    Regarding the music in the game, remember the GOOD o' days when the devs of a lot of racing games would add all sorts of different music genres into their games and give you the ability to customize the soundtrack's playlist? That way, you could actually CHOOSE what you wanted to listen to of all the songs that they provided? I sure do miss features like that. You'd think as technology and game quality gets better and better, more and more features such as that would be more prominent and refined, but now they're just nonexistent, it's a shame.

    Great video, but seeing Criterion coming back to NFS doesn't really make me happy. They were EA's shiny star in the 2000's with Burnout. Even to the point that they had enough agency to make a game like 'Black'. But over the years they became a not-so-important asset for EA that took care of an NFS game/the driving mechanics of a DICE game once in a while.
    And I know that they're good at it. Hot Pursuit 2010 is an absolute gem to me. But I remember one of their leads saying that they were done making NFS games after Most Wanted 2012...
    I might be wrong, but seeing them getting the franchise back after years without officially working on a project of their own tells me that they pretty much have the same level of agency than Visceral before their shutdown.

      It feels more like merger/reorganization to me. EA says that "Despite our best efforts to establish an independent development group in Gothenburg over several years, it's become clear that the breadth of talent we need to maintain a full AAA studio is just not available to us there". Most likely anyone from ghost who are willing to move will be offered position at criterion and continue to work on NFS.
      Also criterion now isn't the same people who made burnout, they were de facto closed in 2013 with developers moving to ghost and founders leaving shortly - they are now making some indie stuff(Three Fields Entertainment). Therefore I would expect the current trajectory to prevail with maybe some graphical advancements since criterion worked with dice and clearly understands frostbite well.

    NFS Most Wanted 2005 was very much "speaking to the youth" of its time though, everything from the soundtrack selection to the cheesy antics of the blacklist racers was made with the "How do you do fellow kids?" vibe.
    It is about as tacky as the NFS Heat influencer / making bank attitude but Heat is not engaging enough without the build up and story that MFS MW 2005 had. Also kids in 2005 weren't distracted by multiple apps for entertainment. Playing something like NFS MW or watching someone play it or talking about it was the best distraction they had.
    It is tempting to look at NFS MW 2005 through its special sepia filter and laugh at the cut scenes (if you will) but I suppose an almost 30 year old would have played it with wonder in its time since it was a leap in graphics and 'storytelling' (for arcade racers) in its time.
    NFS Heat, is presented with all the same accompaniments as NFS MW 2005, only that it doesn't bring much that is new and definitely is not as engaging as the blacklist progression. After many iterations of NFS stories, NFS Heat is a victim of its own series fatigue.

    Jesus Christ, I don't know if I have dementia but I don't remember Whitelight spewing this amount of maymays and jokes in older videos. The density of humorous stuff is high. Not that I am complaining.

    My main issue with this game is how short the story is and once you’ve done that it doesn’t take long to collect everything unless you want all the cars . I bought an NSX pretty early on and been steamrolling got ultimate plus on everything .

    I love the format! Great editing, an amazing script (as always) that kept me entertained with some great laughs along the way. Now that I think about it I don't even know how I spent the last 10 years without a good nfs. Thie series defined my childhood.
    I am just sad not to hear you talk about nfs for the next 5 hours. Have you thought about making a video about the whole nfs series? Their roots, maybe innovations in the genre and a little context on each game? It could be 48 hours long I wouldn't mind.

    I'm a bit late but if you get impatient and drive ahead of the NPC they'll just say something like "oh you're leaving me behind" and just set a way point on the map for you, so you don't need to stick to the speed limit, personally I don't mind this because some people are new to need for speed and the options are both there.
