Trials Rising is everything you love about "Trials" combined with everything that you hate about where the industry has shifted towards over the last decade.
While this game has a poor reputation for its loot boxes (purely cosmetics) and ghosts (easily disabled) --- the biggest downfall for Rising would have to be the stupid Challenge system.
Previous Trials games were more linear... accumulate 'X' amount of medals and you will unlock the next batch of levels. If you're unfortunate enough to achieve Gold's on your first playthrough, Trials Rising will eventually force you to complete a bunch of mindless "Challenges" to level up. Otherwise, you will literally be stuck. The challenges force you to complete random stipulations, such as completing a track within 90 seconds while performing 10 backflips. The next level might require completing the track with a specific bike, and so forth.
Despite my play time on Steam, I've actually logged 10 hours on the PS5; I love the game and wish I could play MORE levels, but I'm burned out. If you do not purchase the Expansion Pass, you will easily get to a point where you can no longer unlock anything within 2-4 hours --- and the highest track difficulty is MEDIUM. I'm actually up to level 53, and I have still not unlocked a single Hard or Ninja track.
There are several Skill Games, and I believe one "tutorial" track is also locked. I'm literally forced to re-play levels... not because *I* want to shave milliseconds from my PB's, or to beat someone else's PB's in my Friends List. No... I have re-play levels and complete whatever mundane "Challenge" the game has generated... grinding away to slowly level up.
It's a shame, because this is otherwise a great game and would have been my favorite Trials game if it simply had a more traditional, linear progression system that allowed me to unlock more stages. I ended up purchasing the game on Steam to support the developer and I hope another Trials game eventually hits the market.
Also, despite recent reviews, the game absolutely still runs as of the time of this review.
If you're a fan of Trials, check it out... on sale. Be prepared to purchase the Expansion Pass, as well. Otherwise, you're only getting a few hours of gaming and a few dozen Easy and Medium tracks until you're forced to grind out the same levels over... and over... and over... and over... and over... and over....
and over...

I like it and the levels are good but the lootboxes and money grabbing stuff is bad

Hard to believe it has been 5 years since the last Trials game came out. We are really due for a new one
p.s. playtime does not represent total time. Spent countless hours on console

despite what my hours say on steam I have around 1k hours combined across playstation and steam. seriously such a good game but ubisoft can go fuck themselves. just make sure to buy the game on sale with the dlcs for like A$10 (idk like $7 usd or smth)

Trials is always a treat to come back to. Deceptively simple mechanics. An amazing community of creatives. Endless competition and improvement.
Trials: Rising just so happens to contain the most bullshit in the series. (Lootboxes. Pay to win vehicles. Poor UI design.) Harmless to the core experience, but they leave a bad taste in the mouth.
If you can ignore the typical AAA grifting, then you've got hundreds of hours of game to master right here. I recommend it, but only because Trials' iconic gameplay outshines all that the game gets wrong. It's extra worth it if this game happens to be the most recent Trials game at the time of your purchase, because that's where the players are too.
I also recommend the DLCs, but pick them up cheap. They are overpriced. IMO it's not a RedLynx issue. It's the usual Ubisoft leeches sucking another franchise dry.

Trials Rising is a physics-based motorcycle platformer racing game where you can play alone against other people's times or with friends. The game is only played with four keys, yes its learning curve is extremely steep. I enjoyed it for a while with friends, but multiplayer is pretty dead, so keep that in mind if you are not planning to play it solo. There is a good variety of tracks, and bikes, but the game is full of micro transactions. 7/10 overall.

All right...
so first of all I have been a huge fan of trials games, and this one is no exception. the levels are downright awesome and the dlcs are beautiful as well. The only time ubisoft connect ever gave me problem was in the start and afterwards it was not an issue at all. The soundtrack is top class and physics are as good as they have always been. i would definitely recommend this game to anyone.
Downsides..
when single player ghosts are enabled in career then it takes like 5 minutes to load the levels and not many players, so forget about multiplayer. Only the career is where the game shines
ALL IN ALL...
a solid game and it took me 100+ hours to get platinum in all levels.. (except ninjas)
so definitely try it.. not expensive nowadays either..
