I don't get people's optimism around new content appearing in MFGT.

It's a GT7 demo. Its target audience is explicitly people who won't know if the content in it is new-to-series or not because they haven't played the series.
I'm basically 100% with you.


What I am gonna say though that if I was in charge of the demo and was maybe sitting on some unreleased content I'd put it right in there to:

A: Generate a lot of buzz around my demo and getting your base excited is a good way to do that.

and

B: Put out some impressive PR afterwards like how many million downloads your demo got.



I don't think it's gonna happen mind you, but there is some logic behind that line of thought.
 
Think ā€œMy First Gran Turismoā€ is Kazā€™ first Gran Turismo? Was thinking he was Thirty years old when Gran Turismo released and itā€™ll be the 30th anniversary of PlayStation. The GT franchise has always been his vision. Just wondering if heā€™s put together the best not only from gathered player data, but what he liked in the franchise.

Just an example of the teaser showing the first Countach. Itā€™s a bit odd because his first car was the R32 GT-R. Wonā€™t be long until we find out. Should be interesting.
When I first heard of that, I though we could get a gran turismo 1 themed update in gt7, with cars from from gt1 and tracks like autumn ring or ss route 5. But thats probably dreaming too much.

People like setting themselves up for disappointment so they can keep having something to moan about.

Speaking of content, when did Grand Valley South get added and how have I never noticed it?
 
I really wish they would share their plans for the future. Is GT7 something they are going to build upon indefinitely or are they working on something new within the next few years? The game's 3 year anniversary is coming up and I think it's about time they give us something to look forward to in the series more than just some chase the rabbit events and some cars every month-ish. Maybe that demo will be a catalyst for interviews where the series' future can be asked about.

I have the same feeling. I finally want endurance races in the game. When are we going to get more missions? Those weekly special events are fantastic but i wish they would make them available in the main game.
I mean it's nice to have regularly updates, even after a lifecycle of almost 3 years. But this game can and could be so much more. They took alot away from us and i fear it's never coming back.

This would make sense to me IMO. But the likelihood is probably 0%
