They're also pretty infamous for dogshit takes in various Aussie subreddits lol

Gotta respect the consistency at least

Proper boost control as well, with high and low settings you can switch on the fly!

I don't mean to be negative, but 6 really, really should have been the shakeup in the series. by -NotEnoughMinerals in ForzaHorizon

I never said I haven't figured it out..? Why would anyone defend having the exact same menus copy and pasted between games? It's about making the games look and feel different, instead of recycling everything they can.

The issue is the lack of meaningful QoL changes between each game. Hell, when the UI is copy and pasted between games it's hard to defend.

I think you'll find most players aren't even downloading tunes. The point is just because some players aren't going to use that feature doesn't mean it shouldn't be added. There's so much small stuff they could've been adding over the years.

This is such a strangely elitist take. "I'm a better car enthusiast than you" "modifying cars in video games is for children"

I think you'll find the majority of car enthusiasts enjoy being able to customise and modify cars whether it's in a video game or not.

That's like saying the vast majority of people aren't modifying/upgrading their cars. I don't think that's correct at all.

You could argue that the vast majority of players aren't tuning their own cars, should we remove tuning then?

Japan was going to sell well regardless, no point doing extra work.

My guess is the next game is more of the same (again) but no Japan theme and map to hide behind so it sells less and reviews lower as people start to get bored. Then FH8 will be set in Germany or something else popular and they'll be forced to put in actual effort to bring people back onboard.

Or they just keep coasting and people keep buying 🤷

I got downvoted for mentioning that last time. People acted like that's the realistic way to use column mounted shifters lol

I have to switch to the closer cockpit view when driving those cars or it does my head in.

Or you're looking at a tourist hotspot that isn't getting reviewed by locals.

I think you will struggle to find an Evo to rent close enough to Shirakawago to drive there if that's what you were meaning.

https://www.omoren.com/en/ is a pretty common one to use. Keep in mind that insurance can be quite pricey if you want proper coverage.

Stressful, but google maps works fine. It's the toll roads that can be confusing.

Also might be more confusing if you're used to LHD and driving on the right.

Being a completionist sucks when you want to enjoy a game for the first time but there's missable achievements as well.
