    I'm really excited for Skate Story. I love games that use strong aesthetics to build atmosphere (think Gris or Journey). Skate Story's trailer oozes aesthetics and atmosphere that made me want to play despite not caring about the subject matter, skateboarding. The game has been my most anticipated every year since the trailer dropped in 2022.

    I thought this video was worth sharing because it does a really good job at showing what I find exciting about Skate Story. And Skill Up is a reviewer who tends to value many of the same things as me in games, so I'm taking his excitement as a good sign for the game's quality upon release.


    Sorry for keeping the clickbaity title. The video author tends to avoid clickbait titles (most of their reviews are a variant of "I recommend <game>"). On the rare occasions the titles deviate from that pattern, it's usually for good reason.

      Ok, I'm not into skating game genre, but, my god, this game is really beautiful. Night city vibes, what can be more appealing? Hm.. one more reasons to finally upgrade my laptop to a new with a better graphic card. And maybe finish GRIS one more time.

        If you haven't already heard, the studio that made GRIS just released a new game called Neva that's very much in the same spirit.
