You know, I think I will make a post about buts one day...
...but, for an incomplete offering that people are being charged full price for, the game is not horrible. In fact, I would dare to say that it is now one of the best, if not the best (and possibly only) mostly-simulation-and-a-bit-arcady racer on the PS4. We will ignore the fact that pickings in the racing genre on the PS4 are a wee bit slim.
For those that purchased the game, there was "compensation" that didn't work for a while. But it was fixed soonish?... I don't know. It is working now.
They did a lot of work on the weather and environment sounds. A LOT of work. Let this not be understated. The visuals and applicable physics are nothing short of phenomenal. However all of that is just eye candy. You don't play a racing game for the visuals, you play a racing game to race. Or at least you should, otherwise why did you buy the game?
There is a game in the box. The single player mode is challenging, even early on. I am looking at you time trials... grrrrrr. Perhaps I just need to race better, obviously your mileage may vary. I find it to be sufficiently entertaining.
There is also an online multiplayer component in that box. This other box requires monies of the PS Plus variety to enjoy. This other box also integrates with some of the single player options in ways I don't agree with. Such as locking off cars because you have not created a club or do not belong to a club. Actions which you cannot fully engage in because of prior mentioned PS Plus wall.
So should you buy it? I dunno. I'm not here for that. For what its worth I am enjoying it still, but I did get it as a surprise gift.
