The story aspect of the game appears to be underwhelming, with players noting a lack of engaging missions and unrealistic physics, particularly regarding snow and skiing mechanics. While there are mentions of missions in the season 2 expansion, the overall narrative experience seems to be overshadowed by technical shortcomings and a lack of depth.
- “The snow is too white and the physics of the snow is not realistic at all. The sounds of all vehicles in the game are more like a vibration noise. When I'm shoveling snow with the trail machine plow, it's just making it flat. It's like a physics-less tank on a mission to nowhere. All the people who are skiing are unrealistic; they are like sticks on skis.”
- “For the missions when you have to do more things, it's a bit tricky.”
- “I do not have the season 2 expansion, but I believe that has missions or something for earning money.”
