I'm a happy chap. Feels great with a DS4; it's not quite "PCARS or AC, but with actual controller optimisation", but it's certainly the closest the series has ever been. A certain level of care and finesse is needed now that wasn't necessary in previous GTs. In particular the GR.4 Sirocco had me bamboozled for a while! A surprising challenge.
I really lik the new tracks. They seem pretty well designed, look clean and are satisfying to tour round. They fit well with the series imo. Dragon Trail reminds me of Estoril for some reason, I'm not entirely sure why.
Above all else it just feels great, after the traditional slog of waiting, to be going round in circles in a GT game again. 👍
