Gran Turismo 7

Apparently there's a good easter egg at Bathurst.

reminds me of GTA 5

Word on the street ("street" = "Reddit") is that the new update severely nerfs the Fisherman's 1-lap rally race payout. So goodbye to the only decent grind in the game, but let me officially welcome all of you to Microtransaction Hell, brought to you by Polyphony Digital. This is the state of videogames now. I mean, it's been trending that way for a while - and the writing was on the wall for the GT franchise from the GT7 release - it's just disappointing that there's absolutely no pretense anymore. I don't have time to grind a 3+ minute drone around SSRX for enough $45k payouts to buy a multi-million Legends car.

There are absolutely worse things going on in the world, but like most of you, I've been enjoying this franchise for 25 years so in the context of "videogames I enjoy playing," I feel a little Kerrigan'ed.

Played it for the first time last night after work - got a PS5 finally. Cashed my vouchers from the anniversary edition, did the music rallies, let the download finish....and THEEEENNNN the servers went down. I love modern gaming.

Haven't played a GT game since 4 - progress in this game is going to be a mess for me

Looks like I am still smart for not buying it just yet. I'll let them iron out the bugs a touch more

I’ve just been reading that the new update brought nerfs to all of the best money making races. So they’ve slowed the credit earning potential of players.

Combine this with more expensive upgrades than previous games and a whole roster of ridiculously expensive classic cars.

So if the servers ever come back up, here are the revised race payouts.

very annoying....my opinion of the game keeps getting worse

I think we're going on 12 hours of the servers being down. How big must the bug in the update have been? No doubt some kind of exploit that allowed us mouthbreathers to get far more credits than we deserved
