    24 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics of the game receive mixed reviews, with some players praising the clean textures and realistic car designs, while others criticize the overall quality as not being "AAA" level, noting issues like blocky terrain and excessive blur effects. Many users appreciate the game's performance on lower-end systems, but they also call for more graphical options and polishing to enhance the visual experience. Overall, while the graphics are considered decent, there is a consensus that improvements are needed for a more polished presentation.

    • “It's got everything from awesome realistic graphics to cars, customization, and career mode.”
    • “Pros: the textures are great, the graphics are clean.”
    • “As for painkillers, I can list quite a matching soundtrack, good graphics, a pretty wide choice of engines, and well-built environments with many details.”
    • “- Graphics are not really AAA; they are trying to look like they do, but they are far from AAA games. Blocky terrain, ugly blur from the car that can't be disabled (DLSS turned off). It's easy to spot those rough edges, and a ton of blur all over won't fix that.”
    • “- Very few graphic options.”

  • gameplay
    10 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Gameplay is criticized for its rough menu mechanics, which can hinder navigation, and a lack of content, with objectives primarily focused on scoring. The drifting mechanics, intended to be a central feature, are described as simplistic and reminiscent of mobile games, failing to meet the standards set by titles like CarX or NFSU/2. Overall, the gameplay experience feels underwhelming and lacking depth.

    • “Drifting mechanics is nowhere near close to CarX or NFSU/2 - that snap oversteer is hilarious.”
    • “Menu mechanics are rough; sometimes you can't go back to a previous selection.”
    • “Not a lot of content and gameplay; objectives are just to get enough scores.”
    • “The whole drift mechanic, which is supposed to be the core of the gameplay, feels like some basic mobile game.”
  • music
    10 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game has received positive feedback, with players praising the soundtracks as "dope" and well-matched to the gameplay. However, there are calls for a broader selection of songs, as some users noted the repetition of only a few tracks. Overall, the music contributes to the game's enjoyable aesthetic and enhances the overall experience.

    • “The soundtracks are dope.”
    • “Music is pretty nice, car customization is enough, underglow, some NFS Unbound elements.”
    • “As for Painkillers, I can list quite a matching soundtrack, good graphics, pretty wide choice of engines, and well-built environments with many details.”
    • “Hoping to see more game modes, more character models or character customization, more car parts, corrected menus, settings options, and more than 3-4 songs on repeat.”
  • story
    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's story is criticized for its complete absence, leaving players feeling that it lacks any meaningful purpose or substance. Additionally, the missions are described as overly repetitive, contributing to a frustrating experience that is compounded by technical issues and crashes. Overall, players express disappointment in the narrative aspect, feeling it detracts from the overall enjoyment of the game.

    • “No story; the 'purpose' of the game lacks any substance.”
    • “Missions are too repetitive.”
    • “I bought it, I installed it, I have 35 minutes in it and I played 2 minutes. The other time I spent trying to get problems fixed, crashes, the whole settings menu is out of the screen with DLSS enabled. Finally got it to work by blindly getting DLSS disabled. Did mission 1 with keyboard to test that went well, but when I plugged in my Logitech G923, I started up mission 2 and all I have left is black screens. I can barely see the car and can't get it fixed.”
  • optimization
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's optimization is widely criticized, with players noting issues such as poor controller remapping options, erratic vehicle handling, and a lack of customization in graphical settings. Many users feel that the game does not perform well across a range of PC specifications, highlighting the need for improvements to accommodate various hardware setups and enhance overall gameplay experience.

    • “Also, we can swap our car engine and upgrade the performance.”
    • “Well, let's see, the game is not bad graphically, but it needs to fix/add several things. I tried it with a controller and the experience was poor. First, you cannot remap the keys to your liking because the controller is still mapped as it is from the factory, which is a laziness. Second, the assistance is very strange because the car starts to spin almost without touching it. You need to polish the assistance and implement something similar to CarX. Third, separate the brake from the reverse gear. Finally, it needs better optimization for all types of PCs (not everyone has a 3060) and the ability to configure everything in the graphical settings to your liking, as well as removing those cartoon effects and leaving only the normal smoke, among other things like fixing bugs and sounds.”
    • “Optimization is a hot mess too.”

  • humor
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users find the humor in the game's drifting mechanics, particularly noting that the exaggerated snap oversteer leads to amusing moments, even if it doesn't compare favorably to other racing games like CarX or NFSU/2.

    • “The drifting mechanics are nowhere near close to CarX or NFSU/2 - that snap oversteer is hilarious.”
  • emotional
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The emotional aspect of the game is largely overshadowed by technical frustrations, as players express disappointment with controller mapping, vehicle handling, and overall optimization. While the graphics are noted as decent, the lack of customization and persistent bugs detract from the immersive experience, leaving users feeling frustrated rather than engaged.
