A freeroam drive with a fully stock Nissan Silvia S15 in the new game, Japanese Drift Master (demo). Here’s my first impressions of the demo version.
Honestly, I’m loving this game so far. Since this is a demo and not the final release bugs need to be expected. The traffic is a bit wonky, there are a lot of frame stutters, the keybindings aren’t remappable, multiple inputs (wheel, keyboard, handbrake, etc) don’t work, can’t look around with a mouse; there are issues like this but the game is currently in work in progress stage, and yet I had a blast playing this game. The H-shifter doesn’t work as of now but other than that I think this demo version itself is very enjoyable and worth checking out. I loved the graphics, the car sounds, the environment and surprisingly even the force feedback, which I wasn’t expecting at all. It was a bit bland at first but once I dialed in the settings, it felt good enough for drifting. There is definitely room for improvement for FFB tho, I couldn’t feel much details through the wheel but the wheel does move where it’s supposed to so it’s good enough for now. Currently at this stage we only have access to a small portion of the roads and I loved every inch of it. The map is well designed, realistic and looks gorgeous. Finally, we have a freeroam game that’s realistic, feels good on a wheel, and with realistic road width. I’m so pumped and looking forward to the full release. I’ll definitely make more videos on this. Let me know what you guys think about this game. Enjoy the video :)
