Trials Evolution - closing thoughts

I hit the metaphorical wall in Trials Evolution, and think the best, in regards to the well-being of my Xbox controller, will be to never play it again. I currently have something like 125 trophies (only 10 away from unlocking the really, really sadistic tracks), and after spending some time on the more difficult tracks I have some complaints mainly regarding the game's controls.

Stop making me climb what is basically vertical obstacles! The controls feels really shitty when going up steep hill and whatnot, so the fact that the later tracks often feature like 5 of them seems, to me, like a poor design decision. It's not just because it's hard, but because the physics for climbing feel incredibly unintuituve and unrealistic. It does not make sense that holding right on the analogue stick uphill should cause the rear tyre to leave the ground, and thus making me roll backwards. This is especially annoying whenever you have to land diagonally, as the bike will bounce few times, making it incredibly hard to control; and it's not like you have much time to let things settle because in 9 out of 10 cases, there will be instant death waiting for you at the bottom.

The "best" bike I have, is also the worst. It accelerates like a motherfucker, and is really difficult to control. I wish they had put the difficulty in the tracks themselves, but given me a real solid bike that I felt comfortable using. Instead I feel like a clumsy fuck on a bike I barely know how to control going through tracks that require precision well beyond my skilset. So basically, fuck you Trials Evolution!
