So, I have had the game since the first day it came out. I have spent around 800 hours playing it, so I believe I have an opinion on it. I will share my own tastes and make some comparisons with other NFS games.

This is a game with great customization in all aspects, from bumpers to engines. There are many daytime races where you earn money for upgrades and reputation at night to level up and unlock cars and other things that will enhance your engine. As you can understand, it is a combination of old Need For Speed games (Underground and Most Wanted). The police at night are difficult to deal with as they will try to stop you by any means necessary, which makes it even better. Personally, the gameplay is different in terms of the parts you unlock, as you customize them to have a fast car that can evade the police and also race off-road. Yes, just like Payback, there are off-road races and drag races. Personally, I enjoyed it because I like WRC, so it was perfect. The drag races are good. As for the drifts, I think the developers missed the mark here. It didn't feel realistic to me, but it was funny, although it had nothing to do with the drift in the 2015 NFS (personal opinion, of course). The graphics are nice, and the landscapes are beautiful both in the morning and at night. The story of the game is short, but it was okay for me. I would have liked a bit more or some DLC after some time. Overall, I liked it, but I wasn't blown away. They added, if I remember correctly, two small DLCs with two cars, but I wanted more. Well, on PC, in order to enjoy the game, I searched and installed mods. What mods? UNITE, look it up, it makes the game 10 times better. That's it
