Forza Horizon 4 is still as good as any other FH, but...

It’s new focus on drivatars, dressing them up, giving them emotes and gestures, etc etc is irritating and for me quite unwelcome. The fact that the game tells you to go to your house (!) to try on new clothes, but doesn’t bother telling you to go to your garage to tune your cars, is telling. So will FH5 have some virtual dating sim feature?

It's just character customization. Many games have it.

I know, but it’s way more in your face than previous FH. I dunno. Maybe I’m just old and grumpy.

Hmm. I must have missed that part over the sound of me having a blast driving my Lamborghini Huracan.

Even if you turn off the online features and just go in offline mode, does it still tell you to do that social stuff?

I haven't tried it in offline mode... It hasn't annoyed me enough yet.

When you honk at drivatars, they don’t honk back like in the last one.

From what I've seen it is a copy/paste of FH3. All they added was pointless filler like character customization which is completely useless in a racing game where you can't actually control your character. They're desperately trying to appeal to the Fortnite crowd. Its sad tbh.

TDU2 went even further. You could get facial surgery and your character would actually have bandages all over his face for a while.

Looked like a maniac whilst driving.

People complaining about and over-interpreting the presence of character customization. Ain't the internet awesome?

If i remeber right, in FH3 you honk to get them to join you while you drive and if you honk again they honked as well.

That's such a minor part of the game.

Its a great game, but I feel bad for lemmings. They have an inferior version. PC all the way!

The only thing I really don't care for are the roulettes, I wish they just gave me some random stuff at the end of each race and be done with it. I must confess I do enjoy the dressing up my character.

Considering the PS4 has had 3 exclusive AAA games that this, not missing much. Plus has outsold Xbox One worldwide.

Good thing the PS4 got Spiderman and God of War this year and also has an MLB game. Baseball > racing sims

PS4 is also getting exclusive content for the GOAT.

I wasn't too impressed by the demo. I spent more time flying around using the drone that I did the car. It reminded me too much of one of the older NFS games that I can't recall off hand. But maybe the races are more enjoyable as the game goes on. I kind of want to play The Crew 2 to see if I might enjoy that better.

Okay, but how about the real issue with many cars sharing the same exact sound, unlike fh3 where cars sounded unique.

Now its just copy paste.

I had no idea this was a car game. I thought it was about silly dressed, stupid dancing avatars. KIDDING. Sorry its just irritating that even in the wheel spin, there's chances to win new cars, credits, or....pink boots. Maybe leopard print leggings. WTF.

No I haven't noticed that, I'll listen closer.

Don't get me wrong, I'm enjoying it, there's just immediately right off the bat some things I'd like to see changed or done away with, which wasn't the case for me with FH3.

- "Rewind" during online racing. Every time I've tried this, it just makes a bad situation worse.

- Freerun Rush. Its stupid. Just bring back the "drive to the next event" feature of online adventure. Don't make an actual event out of it

Woah, is that true? I have yet to try it, but that is ironic, since GT got sh*t for that before.
