Just how good is F1 2021’s Braking Point story? | S02E07

from The Traxion Control Sim Racing Podcast · host Traxion.GG

The biggest feature of the F1 2021 game is arguable the all-new Braking Point narrative-led mode.  Playing through a story that mixes cinematics, incidental details and gameplay challenges, you take on the role of young upstart, Aiden Jackson, as he progresses from Formula 2 to a midfield Formula 1 team.  You get to select from one of five F1 teams to partner with and joining you as an experienced teammate is Casper ‘Cas’ Akkerman. It’s not just two characters though, as antagonist Devon Butler from F1 2019 makes a comeback, and there’s also Zoe Akkerman and team liaison Brian Doyle to deal with.  In this episode of the Traxion.GG Podcast, Thomas Harrison-Lord and Rich Hutson discuss the highs, the lows, the good, the bad and whether overall, they would recommend playing this new story.  Here’s a very mild spoiler warning, but not key character or story elements are discussed, mainly mechanics and overall sentiment.  For more on F1 2021, visit the Traxion website, where we have our full game review, help, advice and videos: https://traxion.gg/category/games/f1-2021/ Support the show Learn more about your ad choices.
