  • LEGO 2K Drive reviewed by Luke Reilly on Xbox Series X. Also available on Xbox One, PlayStation, Switch, and PC.
    "One part The Crew 2, one part Mario Kart, and one thousand parts… LEGO parts, LEGO 2K Drive is a wild and whimsical all-ages kart racer that’s buried itself under my skin like the pointed edge of rogue plastic brick underfoot in a messy kid’s bedroom. Better still, it’s one that embraces the total creative freedom real LEGO affords like few games before it, with an incredible custom vehicle creation tool that’s just about worth the price of admission alone. The current inability to share those designs with others is disappointing - particularly in the shadow of another tedious microtransaction store - but LEGO 2K Drive is certainly the fastest and funniest way to rock out with your blocks out in recent memory."

    Game looks fun, but micro transactions on top of an already questionable price tag are a no no for me. Definitely holding off to see how the game develops.

      IMO no game should get more than a 7 for predatory microtransactions. Maybe an 8, if it's a special case or something. But this time, it should be at most a 6, because it's a game for children and is implemented in a premium game. Generally, also, items obtained through microtransactions are much worse value than cosmetic DLC.

    • @alfredong6850

      Even without the DLC and microtransactions, this look like a tiring cumbersome grind of sidequests that makes no sense. This looks painful to play compared to the FH series.

    Picked it up for my son. He loves it. The building aspect is a game in itself. Racing is fun but not challenging for an adult. It is designed for a younger audience. The price tag is unfortunate, it doesn't have a lot of content at launch. 7/10 for me so far.

      The price tag and microtransactions are crazy, but you can't (or shouldn't) lower the score dramatically just because of its business model. The score should be determined by the combination of all factors (gameplay, performance, story, etc.).

      @dustinroberson1865 Рік тому +1

      @@kubok3596 Value...It doesn't look like this game has $70 in value. Would have been priced much better at $30, trying to get it in as many houses as possible and profiting off the microtransactions. Many won't buy it because of the microtransactions. Others won't buy it because the price tag is too steep for the game that it is. Others aren't going to buy it because it is a very short game that is only made longer because of tedious tasks. All of those things are reason enough to rate it a 6 or lower.
