      I'm happy there's a demo, been thinking about this but $30 is a little steep.....see what I did there?

      Does anyone know if they're actually adding a grind mechanic for this?

        They added a grind mechanic on the last update and I read in one of the official hype pieces that you could use that mechanic in this Olympic update

              as lame as it may sound I really want a game to include ski jumping.  I've just always loved that sport.

                Oh, well I've definitely played Alaska.  Not convinced they even really added a mechanic though, just more opportunities to actually try to grind.
                Infinite Air does the Snowboarding better in my opinion, specifically the grinds but overall it just feels better and more realistic.  I love both games though, not trolling Steep by any means.

                  Yeah, a grind mechanic?  They never mentioned that in a patch note.   There was just more stuff to jump on...btw played and enjoyed the demo beta.  Lots of grinding opportunities that should have been in the original game.  But still, great game with great additions and support. 
                  Olympics content is fun but a little steep at $30, especially if you bought the season pass and they want $30 more.  Should at least be discounted for season pass holders.

                    They added a grind mechanic in the Alaska DLC. I’ve seen a bunch of videos of people grinding in the Olympic beta videos so not sure why it’s so hard to believe  that grinds had been added.

                      The demo was fun but if it's true that season pass holders still have to pay for this DLC ($40 CAD to boot), then I'm not going to have any of it. Cannot support this game anymore. Ubisoft is just milking consumers. Pay for the base game, pay for the season pass (or the gold edition), pay for the Olympics.

                      Some goodwill to season pass holders would have been nice, but instead consumers have to find out close to release that this DLC will be full price for everyone. No transparency at all when they announced the expansion and in the months following, which is supported by googling and finding Reddit threads asking the same thing. I'm done with Ubisoft games. Too many shady business practices going on for me to deal with.

                        I feel ya but im going to wait and see if I feel ripped off. If it’s the same size as the Alaska DLC and I have to pay $40 CAD I’ll be less than impressed. I think it’s going to be bigger though closer to the size of the original game. If that’s true I’ll feel more than fine  with the purchase
