Hard pass. After playing FH5 and leaving for a few months only to be locked out of races and stuff I had access to at the start of the game due dlc coming out and locking you out unless you paid for the content that we already had access too. No thanks. I’ll sail the seas.
Pricing on this is something else, man. 70€ base, 100€ deluxe, 120€ for the premium. And they moved most of content into the premium tier. The only difference btw the 70 and the 100 € versions is the car pass ( which could act as a huge car pack as in the past they had a couple dozen cars ). Also the premium tier does not include future car packs ( which may be fair but i have a feeling they will nickle and dime us for cars already present in FH4/FH5 ). There’s a good chance the game will be good, but you can also bet MS will squeeze us dry.
based on past versions, is this one gonna be 1TB? /j
Looks just like Horizon 5. :D But in Japan setting off course, which is very interesting to me. Its one of the few Microsoft IPs that do well in recent history.
Snow tunnel looks cool.
Here’s hoping they have more than three blocks of city streets to race on…
Autozam AZ-1 my beloved
I played the first game, I think, it was fun… Itching for some arcade-ish racing. Does the new entries have paid DLC cards, gated progression or any shit like that?
I played FH4 and progression was quite easy I had good cars and cool cars early on but there were still cars to grind for.
FM3 onwards these games were full of DLCs, special editions, VIP status for faster progression, live service content, fomo mechanics, gambling, etc pp
The “story”, “writing” and “characters” are also painfully bad. Cutscenes arent skippable. You can mute those bland corporate written assholes though.
Gameplaywise it isnt a nice little campaign like in FH1. Its more like a sandbox where the game shits out a new car for you at every given moment but desireable cars are locked behind seasonal/weekly events and grinding. then the map gets clogged up really fast in thousands of races and other activities which you can do however you feel like. If your after a more guided experience your out of luck.
Still pretty solid games with great artstyle, tons of cars, very good driving physics, tons content etc.
But after the Forza Motorsport 2023 desaster i dont trust Microslops marketing one bit. Playground Games trackrecord is still pretty good they overtook Turn10 long ago. But i’m going to wait it out until the honeymoon phase wears off and the more critical opinions start to appear.
Thank for the thoughtful answer! Kind of sad to all that FOMO in every single AAA game. Will wait for a demo and see.

I only played FH4 but yeah they were pretty awful. The Drift guy was okay though, he was basically like “hey go have fun and show off”. Generic but pleasant enough. Other characters were unlikeable.
Playground Games’ track record is still pretty good and they overtook Turn10 a long time ago.
??? These games are made by both Playground and Turn10.
You know what a fun game is that works perfectly and doesnt require online data stealing accounts and dlc bullshit on unfinished games?
PS1 GT2. Byeee
Need for Speed Underground 2.
no, the other Gran Turismo
GT4
perfection
I’d rather the older Motorsport games, up to Motorsport 4. FH6 is going to be toxic, cheated, manipulated, and a mess.
A video about that nonsense is on YouTube from 2023, and it’s this (using an Invidious link): https://inv.nadeko.net/watch?v=KkmxCwi6RVs
