I stopped playing GT7 3 months ago and I used to do over 10 000km/month since release...while hoping the next update would make things better or as it was supposed to be in regards to cars and track at the minimum, at least in my mind or compared to some other games.
I got tired of getting disappointed monthly, so I stopped playing the game.
I still follow threads and news on GT planet in hopes things will get better.
Unfortunately the more it goes, the less the pattern changes in regards to updates.
So I don't plan on playing for the next 3-6 months at least, so when added all togheter, that' ll feel like a semi-decent update over the long haul. Maybe I'll play for a week, a month, 2 or 3, we'll see and again... unless a major update full of relevant content comes in. It's not what I wish, cause I'd rather play every day, have fun and stay entertained...but the way PD and/or Sony does things just pushes players away instead of doing the opposite.
Like many others here I feel insulted and taken for granted by the way things are conducted as well as with all those weird and often times irrelevant content choices.
For anyone that's been reading the forums over the past 6 months(or even longer), it is more than obvious what people are expecting from GT.
I usually am on the positive side of things, but now I'm done giving Sony or PD the benefit of the doubt, being patient and keep getting frustrated by poor administrative choices and repeatedly getting frustrated almost each month by poor updates or broken promises. It is a shame in 2022 the way too many things are managed about this game, which is otherwise a great franchise.
The business side of things is killing the fun, killing the game...and I've been playing it since GT 1, so for 25 years running!
Now go do your homework PD, Sony or whoever, I don't care and make sure FAST that GT7 becomes what it was always meant to be/should be. Thanks to sites like here, it keeps many people hanging around meanwhile and looking from a distance, but everything has its limits and alots has to improve before there won't be anybody hangin' around anymore when GT8 comes, no matter how great it might possibly be...
Right now I'm sitting on 70+ mil credits and I can't see when I will spend it. I'm sick and tired of grinding in hope for..., YO THIS AIN'T NO FUN!!!!! never has been! car prices are ridiculous, always grinding the same races like a slave, not enjoying the game anymore because the payouts are stoopid for 98% of races, always doing the same 2-3 races 100 times in a ...row and well car prices are out if this world...where's the fun in that? And I'm an adult with time on my hands, patience, skills, long life true motorsport first hand knowledge, passion and experience and a 25 years history of loyalty with the game...so how is this supposed to be appealing to a kid? a teenager? or even a new customer? if all of this became aversive to most of us???
Believe me I enjoy racing, really enjoy racing. I do that in real life. I might as well just stick to only real life if nothing changes. Been reflecting on all this for a loooooong while now and I'm not the only one. Hope someone intelligent with common sense reads this at Sony.
What tells you there's a problem with the game is when many people tell you openly on forums that probably the most fun they've had with GT7 was when there was the BONANZA glitch! Yo! not even racing!!! a freakin' roulette game!...and I confess I'm one of em', my son too, his freinds to, and my friends too, and so many people here too, oh wait and most of them have left already before me so they won't be here to even read this today...makes you wonder.
Meanwhile, cheers to everyone that's still left.
