Does The Lack Of Layers Make You Actively Not Want To Play During The 5 Day Early Access Period?

    For me, I shall be waiting for the full release to experience the new routes in all of their full fat glory.

    The 5 days early access period will be used to smash out all of the training modules, familiarise myself with the UI, configure the HUD, and trying not to vomit from all of the yellow...

    Personally I wish they’d do away with it. If the games ready to release 5 days earlier, release it 5 days earlier (moot point though since even on the standard release date it’ll be about 2 months too soon).

    The early access just taints the routes due to not having layers & honestly it’s one of these marketing gimmicks that doesn’t actually give you anything & they can use to upsell, I generally hate it in any game.

    I’ve always found it odd that DTG sell you their more expensive bundles with a caveat that you’ll be getting a worse first time experience than standard release.

    I'll use the 5 days to get familiar with the stopping patterns, gawk a bit and grab some collectables.. maybe a bit of on foot exploring - pre ordering never really made sense to me on digital products, as if they're going to run out of stock on launch day or something - I think in all honesty though for the Riviera at least there isn't going to be a great deal missing in those 5 days and if anything I'll be looking at the TSW5 install and the GWE and longing for the GWE:R

    Only going to use it since I got the deluxe anyways so might as well use it, only got deluxe because it’s cheaper than buying the stuff I want individually
