      Then you probably shouldn’t look into the genocide China is currently doing. You’d buy almost nothing.

        Who told you that? Oh, that’s right! It was the same people supporting the genocide in Palestine and the war with Iran!

        China is not involved in a genocide. Capitalists always project their own crimes onto their critics to turn the public against their critics. China has made rapid and beneficial development for its people that has made the west increasingly desperate to prevent it being an example for the global south to follow suit, as it would undermine the west’s imperialism. Their solution is to accuse China of that which America is guilty.

          Yeah it’s doing those things, while also eradicating Uyghur culture. And that is a form of genocide. Two things can be true.

      This one is going to be a difficult one for me to avoid, being a huge fan of arcadey racers and the Horizon series in general :/ 4 and 5 were pretty much the only live service games I’ve ever bought (except a few MMOs I’ve subbed to back in the day).

      Upside is, I haven’t really had much time to play games lately, and won’t for at least a few more months, so even if I do end up caving in, it probably won’t be for a few more months. Maybe they’ll manage to enshittify it by then and I won’t be interested lol

          I might if the multiplayer stays working in the cracked version tbh

          Right now it’s somehow functional, but I wouldn’t be surprised if they used it for more HWID bans

            This. I’ve played fh3, 4, and 5. Only changes are visual and a couple new cars. It’s not an awful game, but I’d rather play modded BeamNG.drive.

              Yes. It’s an open world racing game, what the hell else would they change? It’s like expecting Madden to charge every year besides new rosters, it’s football what else are they going to change?

              I get your point, I’m just not sure what your expectations are.

                The shitty gameplay! The shiity physics! The franchise mode. Shitty AI. Awful monetization. All of the other singleplayer modes. All of the features they’ve stripped out over the years. So much.

      It’s up to each of us to support murder by buying Forza.

      I mean, I’m generally against murder, but if you say so…
