I am not a hardcore GT fan and I don’t think there is a chance I will become one. It all started with GT Sport on PS4 - first with a PS4-controller and then eventually buying G29 (+ Playseat Challenge). It was really fun playing GT Sport - got gold on all license tests, all missions and almost all circuit experience tracks. And then I was hyped to buy GT7… I bought it 3 weeks ago. It took two weeks to get all the gold on everything up to S-10 just to get a big “#### ###” from PD. I have been playing it almost for a week now, 2-5 hours a day. My best is 2:26:760, once(!) I got 2.27:something, if I am lucky + rinsky, it’s 2:28:something. If I drive carefully (not risky) it’s just > 2:29:something, otherwise it’s “TRY AGAIN” and some nonsense from that annoying guy suggesting to watch that demo. I think I already tried every possible combination of settings, the AT/ABS/TCS3(or 4)/ASM/CS-strong/FF10/Max-EV/HDR works best for me on PS5+G29. I see that some people suggest using a PS5-controller to pass this test, but it feels really weird to take the S-10 test on a controller after obtaining all other golds with the wheel. I am already tired of grinding that track. Each section of the track can be taken fast enough, even faster than needed. But all of them? There is always something, too much randomness. Is it challenging and fun? It’s as challenging and fun as getting 6,6,6,6,6 by rolling 5d6 dice. I give up useless grinding. I am so pissed off by the game, that I don’t even want to play the rest of its so-called “story” knowing that I can’t beat the game. I wish I knew about S-10 in advance.
