I really don't know why I had no idea about Ubisoft's Riders Republic, as it looks like a masterpiece, especially for its realistic graphics and environment. I was glad to know this game has an in-game photo mode.
But I got sad to see that it's Gen Mode, which is the offline mode, doesn't allow gamers to use that photo mode. And I was playing a cracked version, so I didn't get to capture the photos like I wished to.
I am a gaming photographer with or without photo mode. So, I tried to capture some photos with my manual lens, without the in-game lens, I mean. And when I started riding the bicycle in the gen mode, in the open world, it felt so surreal.
The graphics of this game already convinced me, and then I noticed the physics, especially in the snow, is too perfect.
When I was speeding up, the around were getting blurry, which is a lot realistic, and I liked it, and I could even jump.
I found a racing track that looked like created for a bicycle race. I didn't have any opponent there as I am in Gen mode, but I decided to try it as it looked cool.
Well, it was insane riding a bicycle on the mountain route, especially when there are high jumps, and the jumps are really risky to see, but cool to experiment with.
This part of the track was my favorite. It was tricky to handle the bike at high speed, but it was so cool. And then there was this high jump point.
At one point, I thought my character wouldn't die no matter if he fell from a high place, but then I understood I was wrong. Yeah, he dies because he is also a human, a human playable character.
I decided to try some sightseeing after that track run, and I noticed there are big mountains that look like the Himalayas, and then I reached a road from where I could see a big waterfall.
So that's all about the bicycle. Maybe I'll come back with another post of this game showing another ride. Because yeah, this game has multiple and various rides. Though there's a limitation in Gen Mode.
To be Continued...
The Gen Mode limitations are unfortunate, but you still managed to enjoy the world beautifully. The sightseeing part with mountains and waterfalls sounds relaxing compared to the risky jumps you tried.
