I gave the GT4 spec 2 mod a shot but for lack of a better word it's too vanilla. I honestly don't even get what's the point of this mod it's slightly polished up vanilla with variety of sidegrades. Maybe that's what people want but for me it's a bit disappointing.

>Yeah bro, Doom 1 sucks all you do is shoot imps with the shotgun.
>>
the AAA ones started sucking shit because they frontload the game with all the high end cars so there's no real sense of progression. You shouldn't get a Ferrari or shit on that level until you're pretty far into the game.
Add on to that that the culture has changed, which means the things those games are about has changed. Festivals have replaced underground meets, stanced cars have replaced ricing, street racing has been corporatised. Then there's the fact that modern cars are have less SOVL than older ones, even just going back a decade or so

You're trying to make Doom sound bad by simplifying it to it's core essence, but while doing so you're also removing essential mechanics from it. It doesn't really work because me pointing out how racing games are just you moving forward in a tube isn't removing essential mechanics from it, that's literally the whole genre.

It is okay anon. You don't have to get defensive, kart games can be pretty fun too

turning racing into some progression drip feed dopamine genre was a mistake

I've been playing a lot of them recently. Ridge Racer 4 and 7, Need for Speed: Most Wanted (2005), Midnight Club 3: Dub Edition, and currently Forza Horizon 6. Forza is fucking awful, but I've enjoyed the rest so far.

no way man
remember when rock was the trendy thing and even top 40 normie playlists had rock on it? now the trendy thing is hip hop and bands are fairly niche now with how easy it is to start your solo career. therefore soundcloud rap

>MCLA Remix feels fucking amazing to play moment to moment, but is kinda repetitive and barebones, half baked in a lot of areas, missing a lot of minor details despite being (probably) the MC3 engine with MC2 maps
>MC3 PSP is a complete port of the PS2 version with E V E R Y T H I N G included (and lower texture quality) and runs even smoother if you overclock the PSP, but has maybe the most annoying screechy tire sound ever included in a game other than NFS Carbon, and it's unaffected by both sound effects AND player car volume sliders

There's nothing pay to win about GT7. Everyone is given the same vehicles in online races, you choose which one you want. The only "gambling" aspect is whether or not you get an invite to buy legendary cars which aren't even used online.

Why did I stop playing racing games you ask? Because every game now has to have 6 gorillion cars which are fed to constantly making you lose track of what car you like. I get its a zoomer thing but fuck me does it make every car you get completely meaningless. Traditional progression my ass!

I dislike driving sims, and arcadey racing games have really been boiled down into kart racers which are fun but really only as couch coop games. Burnout 3 was and still is the best racer for my personal tastes but I don’t know how to get my ps2 to not look like jelly when I run it through my capture card and into OBS so I haven’t really been able to play it in a while. Hopeful that the new pod racing game scratches that itch but unless they make the soundtrack a starwars version of mid 2000s alt rock I don’t think it’ll hit the same. I also liked crash tag team racing but I never see anyone talk about it.

I love racing games, but playing them on higher difficulty settings - or especially in multiplayer - sets my blood alight. Even fucking around in Sparrow Racing on Destiny 2 the other day had my heart pounding and my blood pressure rising to a point where I just had to step away. It's a shame, because I love games like BallisticNG, but I haven't joined a race day in a long time, and even the higher difficulty single-player campaign races start to get to me.
I kinda wish I had the resources to race something in real life. I'm sure that level of alertness would do me well on an actual track. At least then I'd have an actual reason to feel so amped.
