This game is amazing. I may come as a casual no life gamer that sits at home all day eating chips, I actually do mountain biking as a hobby. Having experience with mountain biking when playing this game makes it a whole lot easier to under stand the mechanics of the game. This game might not be realistic but it's a really fun game to play if you're bored. The game is really fast paced and the terrain is generated randomly, which is a really nice step up from the same levels over and over in most games I play. The game is really easy to progress in for me which should be the same for a casual player. The amount of customization is amazing and the world tours make the game so much more entertaining than a basic FPS game. I don't having any friends that have this game, but you can play with friends and ride together, or with random people. This game was so worth the $25 price tag on it, I would honestly buy it again if I wasn't able to play it for some reason. The game is so stable it has never crashes in the 21 hours I had played when writing this. This game has a built in mod manager which can switch up the places you want to ride at. At some points the game is really hard to play, but at some times the game is too easy and makes me too confident. There are tons of tricks you can do in this game, you can go so fast, it's UNREAL. This game would keep me from going insane if I didn't have anything to do during the day. If your a mountain biker or not, and your casual or not, this game is for you. I hope if you decide to buy this game, that you have fun playing it.

soooo good felling hitting those clean jumps and landings and it is NOT hard learning on this game but you almost NEED a controller for this to be fun because you cant do cool tricks on keyboard

Having a mild interest in mountain biking, I was looking to see if there were any games about it. I stumbled upon the Descenders – the game was on sale. After reading some reviews, I didn’t have high expectations and was simply hoping for at least a few hours of fun. It didn’t seem to be my type of game, as I prefer story-rich RPGs, such as Red Dead Redemption 2, Cyberpunk 2077, and Mass Effect. And here I am writing this review after 136 hours and 100% achievements (my first Perfect game, never cared about the achievements so much). :D This game is addictive, easy to learn but hard to master, and offers a highly rewarding sense of progression. The levels are procedurally generated; therefore, even if you become familiar with different regions, you can never predict where the next turn will lead. It keeps the gameplay fresh and exciting. The gameplay is a perfect mix of fun and realism. Yes, eventually, you will be jumping through fire rings, riding mega ramps, riding at incredible speeds, leaping from helicopters, and performing tricks that are impossible in real life. However, the riding still feels realistic, responsive, and satisfying, with mechanics such as pumping and counter-pumping that you will gradually learn. Additionally, it offers a relaxing experience — when you are short on time or do not feel like engaging in a serious game, you can simply opt for a quick career session or a freeride. The graphics are surprisingly nice for such a game and each of the levels has unique feel. Recommended!

I played this game on xbox for years before I tried it on steam. I've been hooked on the mod maps ever since. The Controls are fun and easy to learn, but hard to master. Learning to counter pump was a trip, and carving is so much fun. Tried pipe, tried streets, considered riders.. ended up right back here every time. 10/10 Recommended...
