It's crossgen. There are not any next-gen racers even announced down the road except Motorsport 8.damn man first next gen racer
Absolutely insane
Not for gt7 the assets where always MUCH higher.It's crossgen. There are not any next-gen racers even announced down the road except Motorsport 8.
it's clearly going to be around 90% and I'll tell you why.
99% of the reviewers that will review the game will have not even remotely the knowledge or experience necessary to actually assess how good the game is in terms of simulation or driving model.
they will judge the game 100% only on graphics and amount bof content and will be scared to use any other metric in their review to actually influence the final score.
basically, a lack of confidence on the reviewers side and the fear to come across as ignorant will simply result in high scores by default.
I think that's also how most of them rate Fighting Games. graphics + amount of content, since with everything else they are usually simply not really qualified to actually critique it and just assume that it's great if there aren't any super obvious issues.
GT7 will have a lot of content and will look good. so no reviewer will dare to give it anything below an 85
You wrote all this nonsense and the reviews are already out.
This is fuckedMicrotransaction Reaction
Gran Turismo 7 features the shady ability to top-up your in-game credit balance with real money via the PlayStation Store. At the time of publish the link to do so directly from the various purchase screens in-game is not functioning, so we're unable to see how much credits cost. It would seem that this is a different approach to the microtransactions added to GT Sport in 2018 (which was around a year after it was reported it would not feature microtransactions). The microtransactions added to GT Sport allowed cars to be directly purchased a la carte for real money; GT7 appears to be a cash-for-credits scheme. Either way, GT7's microtransactions have me feeling a bit cynical overall, especially considering how hard GT7 leans into making some of its coolest cars artificially scarce. Some rare cars will only pop up occasionally to buy before they're "sold out", and others require peculiar, time-limited, in-game invitations to actually purchase. It's easy to see how the fear of missing out may coax some players who are light on credits to shell out real cash to grab certain cars before they disappear again.

I noticed, but still my point stands. you will never see a game like this get bad scores. they will only ever be judged by content + presentation and nothing else.
I think the egregious microtransactions did lower the score below what I would have expected. if they weren't there you'd see no scores below 90 I bet
You should try actually reading/watching some reviews, particularly from outlets that specialise in racing games/sims instead of continuing to blindly type.
Isn't Joe public exactly what you're accusing the reviewers of being?I noticed, but still my point stands. you will never see a game like this get bad scores. they will only ever be judged by content + presentation and nothing else.
because almost no reviewer will actually have the qualifications to judge a game like racing sims or fighting games

So their expectations are in line with what the vast majority of people think and want.
Yet GT Sport scored way lower than this?I noticed, but still my point stands. you will never see a game like this get bad scores. they will only ever be judged by content + presentation and nothing else.

Ignore this guyThis is pretty fucked up.

all I go by is gameplay videos and tech analysis (the latter to chose the version and make sure the game isn't completely busted)
Yet GT Sport scored way lower than this?
Well that's an interesting one. Considering the fact that you previously stated that the "simulation and driving model" are things that are of importance, how exactly will you go about assessing that just from looking at gameplay videos and tech analysis?
Would you like me to point you in the right direction?
I am not a racing game enthusiast. so I can't help you there lol. If I was I think it would be frustrating to find sources to actually help me decide.
I am into fighting games tho, and the only way to actually know if one is good or not is wait until after launch and watch some enthusiasts/pros play and talk about them.
if you go by reviews you'd think Mortal Kombat X is an amazing fighting game, in reality it's absolute trash tier. but the reviewers of course don't judge that by the fighting system and balance, but only rate it by content and graphics quality, both of which are very good in MKX
yeah not a fan of MTX shit in any 80 euro gameThis is pretty fucked up.

It's not difficult at all to find reliable sources for racing games. In fact it's never been easier since the Internet has allowed for people with niche interests to easily connect.
For example Team VVV only cover racing sims/games:
Billy Strange also only covers driving games (he typically doesn't give a shit about racing to create content for embargo dates so you'll have yo wait here) :
Same goes for sim racing 604:
And if you want written content/reviews then there's race department:
Articles
OverTake is a platform purely dedicated to sim racing, providing the latest racing game news, reviews, mods, hardware, forums and esports racing events.www.racedepartment.com
But overall the mainstream press are that, mainstream. They are there to give you a general consensus, but if you need to dig deeper on any particular game then there are always places you can go for more specialist content, regardless of genre.
How is fucked? There is nothing behind the paywal just like gt sportsyeah not a fan of MTX shit in any 80 euro game
This is why gaming is fucked.How is fucked? There is nothing behind the paywal just like gt sports
