It really is mildly ridiculous. I play GT7 a few times a week if I'm able, and I always enjoy myself. It's nice logging in every so often to see a few new cars and an occasional track or gameplay improvement, but I really don't understand why so many people here live and die by these updates. If you were paying for it via a season pass or something I get it, but if you don't like the free update, just wait a month for the next free update.
THAT WATCH IS HOT. And this from someone who's favorite watch in the collection is a Movado Saphire.
This is the Cost/Benefit analysis in a nutshell. When the approach becomes "make the game with whatever number of cars are available and don't add anything after launch" they may have smaller continuing revenue . . . but they'll certainly have greatly reduced ongoing costs moving forward.
Yes. GT5 had DLC. Including use once and lose them paint chips...
Spa, Kart Space, Route X and Motegi were all paid GT5 DLC.
Nope. That was Microsoft. They introduced gold and when Sony saw that players were willing to pay for online they did it as well. Nintendo now do it but it all goes back to Microsoft.
Sony introduced the normalization of $70 games, and Microsoft and Nintendo followed.
Personally I think oval shapes/curves on a car look🤮. I'm not a fan of any of the Genesis cars for this reason.
This is the real headliner. No new Missions since April of 2022, Version 1.13, which was when The Human Comedy was added. Do they not have a mission/gameplay designer in their studio? If they do, then surely the chase-the-rabbit event races added every update can't utilize all of their resources....
Imagine if those VGT's were replaced with real cars. It would please a lot more people.
Do you think they kinda regret giving big rewards to Tokyo, Le Mans and Sardegna? Literally nothing else in the game comes close to them.
We have been conditioned to expect monthly updates and place huge importance on them.

It got me thinking... why? The Gr.1 event at Road Atlanta is 30 minutes, but winning it only gives you 320k. Every Gr.1 car cost at least 1 million and it doesn't have the especial CRB conditions from the other 3 races, so why this race is 320k and not 550k?
There are other events that are long and a bit hard compared to Sardegna 800, like Super Formula at Autopolis and RBX2019 at Trial Mountain, both being roughly 23 minutes races and yet 1st place only gets 200k, while Sardegna is 485k.
Balacing the economy either means more credits for all races or reducing Tokyo to something like 350k, Le mans to 300k and Sardegna to 280k. It's so confusing.
Yes my thoughts are that those races were a knee-jerk reaction to the outcry early on and the fact that we haven't got any similar paying events since is evidence of this.
