Like I said, you are not involved in this, there is no choose your own adventure style options here, you are just a listener to the events taking place around you and that is fine, because it works.Īs for the racing, there are a few modes, Career, which I mentioned above, quick race, online and playgrounds and each offers something a little different, well except for career and quick race, those are mostly the same. As you progress through the career mode, you get to hear more of these episodes and as such more of the story, from interviews with other racers, to some smack talk between AJ and the hotshot racer Bruno Durand. The story is mostly played out while you are in the career menu, looking at what event to take part in and is done via the Dirt Podcast, which is hosted by James Pumphrey and Nolan Sykes, both real world racing and podcast folks. There is a bit of a story in Dirt 5, though you are not directly involved with it, instead you are a new rookie, hitting up the Dirt series for the first time, your self-appointed mentor AJ, has decided you have what it takes to be the best and he is going to support you. The question is, will this change to a long running series appeal to more gamers? Dirt as a series has been evolving over the years, going from a full-on technical racer to more of an arcade experience and now that Dirt 5 is here, they have managed to merge the two in some pretty surprising ways. As far as racing series go, I tend to stay away from the technical racers, they have a sub-system in play that never clicked with me, full realistic I can get behind, but arcade is where I love to play.
