PLEASE IGNORE THE HOURS SPENT AND READ THE REVIEW. I BEG YOU, IT IS IMPORTANT!
I would first like to say that I enjoyed both FH4 and FH5. FH5 felt a bit grindy, but hey, it was still worth it. But FH6? THE DEVS ACTUALLY WANT TO MAKE YOU GRIND ENDLESSLY. THIS GAME EXISTS ONLY TO SELL YOU CAR VOUCHERS. THE DEVELOPERS DO NOT CARE ABOUT US. They basically took FH5, slapped a new map and a couple new cars and called it a day. It's the same game, they actually made the AI worse somehow. And while the map is beautiful, and it might trick you into playing for a few hours, you'll soon find how broken the economy is. How cars are locked behind Wheelspins. How little credits you get vs the amount you would need to buy cars and/or tune them. And how when you finally get credits (in-game currency) to buy a car you'll always get an option to buy car vouchers just below the buy button (cause, ya know, they're helping us save time by not having to grind *wink* *wink*). They've nerfed every single way to make credits in the game, be it by playing normally or cheesing the game. The economy is so broken interwar German economy looks better and healthier than whatever is going on in this game.
They've ruined the economy, and they are actually ruining the game one update at a time, and the community seems to get more and more fed up as time passes (there's still a group of bootlickers but they seem to decrease in size as time goes on). I hope the a-hole in charge of all those decisions sleeps well, 'cause if he doesn't then it was all for nothing.
My biggest takeaway from this game is that Playground HATE fun. There is no fun allowed in this game. They would rather burden you with microtransactions than fix multiplayer, ban cheaters, fix the economy or do anything actually useful.
Congratulation, Playground, I hope for your sake it was worth it. I was really looking forward to Fable but now I'm actively discouraging everybody I can from purchasing ANY of your games, you guys don't care about making games fun to play, you just want to pump up the numbers on Game Pass and shove microtransactions down people's throats.
Shameful behaviour, Playground. Shameful!
