GT Sport was lambasted even though PD said they were going to focus on E Sports .
IIRC, the problem at the time was that PD kept on promoting the eSports focus and FIA partnership while, in typical PD fashion, failing to mention that GT Sport was going to be a major tonal shift from previous entries and that it was going to be a
significantly smaller game overall, in terms of car count, track count and things to do. Yes, those issues were addressed over time, but I do remember it catching a lot of users off-guard when the game first launched, which sparked a decent amount of negativity.
With FM '23, Turn 10 made it clear from the get-go what they were aiming for, and have had regular streams where they showcase the changes being made with FM '23, while also giving really deep dives into core details about the game, and showing how those details and changes helped T10 maintain their focus for this game. They're doing all of this while also answering community questions and addressing some of the long-standing concerns from previous titles. Because of this, there's a much clearer picture of what FM '23 is and isn't, and as a result there's been much better overall reception.
It's crazy what a little communication can do, isn't it?
Hypocrisy to the core on this forum .
Literally nobody is forcing you to post here.
Oh wait you guys defended the fact they were using a 360 asset with that BMW 😅.
Who exactly is "you guys?" I personally haven't said such a thing, and there have been
plenty of times, both in the Motorsport and Horizon subforums, where there has been criticism levied at T10/PG's continued use of 360-era car models in the newer games.
