I felt the need to write a review for this DLC because I feel that it really doesn't deserve the hate that it gets.

Personally, I really enjoy the chaotic fun that the new story brings. But I will also have to agree with many of the other reviews that the drifting in this game is a very frustrating, and focusing on drifting for this DLC wasn't a great decision.
Winter Bash definitely feels like the devs wanted to deliver an enjoyable and exciting new flavor to the game, and all the pieces to make that happen are there... but it just feels rushed. It feels like it was hastily scrapped together under a very strict deadline (which it probably was). It just makes me feel sad- there was so much potential but it fell short.

I can't recommend purchasing Winter Bash by itself, but as part of the Deluxe edition bundle, it's a lot of fun!
I just wish it was given the TCL it deserved to be the grand send-off that it should've been.

Despite this game being pretty much a duplicate of Trackmania, that didn't discourage me from finding it to be incredibly fun and addicting in the few hours I've played. The physics of the game, while a bit unusual, are very easy to learn and eventually master. I've already gotten gold medals on all 80 campaign tracks.
Hot Lap is fast, fun, and the bright colors appeal to the Hee Hoo monkey brain. So if you're looking for a casual(ish) arcade racing game to dump time into, I definitely recommend this game.

I have only one complaint if I'm being honest. That's the payout rate for in-game currency. You don't receive any gold for doing individual races. The only way to get money is to level up, and complete daily challenges/events.
Leveling up gets you 100 gold. Completing a daily challenge gets you 10 gold, and even if you have the God-like skills to get to the 1st place in a daily event, the payout is still only approximately 125-250 gold. And with the customization options costing anywhere between 300 to 1200 gold each, you might have to wait several real-world days to get that new paint job you want. That's about the only thing that comes off as unfair to me.

Other than that, it would be awesome if the devs implemented a way to create/share your own track down the line.

Overall I give this game an 8.5/10.
Granted, I understand this game is still relatively new at the time I'm writing this review, so I can't wait to see how it improves!

If you pretend the terrible ending doesn't exist, the game is awesome. This is America. I'll do whatever the ♥♥♥♥ I want.
