@theoldgods Oh man, thanks for opening my eyes. I should just put down my controller and stop playing this game I've been enjoying all morning. Thank you so much for your kind wisdom.
While this game is definitely mediocre, I'm enjoying it. Also if I owned an Xbox One I would be playing Forza Horizon 2 as well. I don't really see the big deal here.
People are tearing this game apart, but it really doesn't deserve the hate. Sure, it's not groundbreaking. But what I've played so far I've enjoyed. I've played racing games that were worse and better. I'll probably just trade this in eventually for credit towards Project Cars. But not until I've had a chance to play the rain/snow patch coming later.
So if anybody actually wants to know about the game from a person who has actually PLAYED IT. I'm right here playing it now. I will say though, Kevin made some very valid points based on what I've experienced so far.
The AI is not the best I've ever seen. It kinda reminds me of how stubborn cars acted in Gran Turismo 3. However, I have been able to effectively block other cars or drive them off the road if they try to pass me. It's just they have no problem running into your back bumper when you block. People calling this game a "fail" or "terrible" are far from correct. It's not terrible, it's just uninspired and mediocre. It's not the best racing game I've ever played, but it's not the worst either.
