Edit: sorry yall I was extremely under the influence
Bit of a conspiracy theory, I guess you could say. Let me know if I’m reaching.
The game for the first half of the tournament focuses on boost mechanics. It’s not until about halfway through that the entropy mechanic is actually introduced. So you could say the first half lets the player get comfortable with the controls and drifting.
Then in the latter half, the game starts introducing new mechanics with almost every story event. New ways to earn boost, new rules, character-specific power-ups and perks. It throws the player into increasingly complex scenarios.
Could this be intentional, to make the player feel more and more overwhelmed? It definitely fits the story, as things become more confusing and desperate between the drivers. Am I reaching?
