I understand your frustration, but I'll also never be convinced that the inconvenience of experienced gamers like yourself having to Google something outweighs the accessibility gains for millions of MK8D players.
The game could have an intro screen similar to Mario Odyssey, but that doesn't make the feature horrible just bc there's a way to improve it's implementation.
If any game requires a player to have to look outside of the game to find out why features are on or how to disable them, it's bad design. It's literally as simple as that. If any game has an easy and a normal mode, but defaults to easy and doesn't even tell the player there is a normal mode, and doesn't even indicate the game can be switched to normal, then it's shit tier design. I don't even understand how this can be debated
Again, the feature itself, isn't an issue, and I agree the feature is actually great. My issue is the implementation. It would even be improved if they put it on by default and then after your first race explained what it is and then just showed you how to turn it off if you wanted
I can get the annoyance, but for the people who this is intended for, they wont know how to put it on.
I literally just finished playing with my roomates who dont play games, and that feature is a god send and lets them have fun playing against each other
If it wasnt a feature, theyd be flying off the edges and hating the game
I don't deny it's a great feature, my issue is the implementation is awful. If you need the feature, it's great, if you're anyone else, and you don't know the feature is there or on by default, you get a confusing and frustrating experience
This is a problem that is solved by a prompt at the start saying 'do you want to select smart steering or normal steeling' with a brief definition on what they are, and who they're intended for
I don't buy that we need to trick children into not ruining the game for themselves at the expensive of everyone else
