I had a VR Headset (Vive Cosmos), but my eyes just aren’t up scratch, so I could never enjoy it.

It’s actual fascism.
Not the modern made up diatribe about fascism.
The fasces is a bundle with an axe - anyone outside the bundle gets chopped. That’s actual fascism. It’s what both the far left and far right proscribe and (correctly) accuse the other of doing.
Forget sides, forget the bundle. Just be a good person and keep your own ethical code.

Yeah I feel that, I didn’t like Horizon 5 due to that, I don’t want to be a superstar out of the gate, let me buy a clapped out mazda demio first.

Do you want themed racing games in different time periods?
If you’re using realworld(or alikes) cars, there isn’t really much more to go for, you’ve got circuit, street, rally, drift and touring cars - which really the only thing you can start to really differ is locale or time period.
F1 is F1 and F1 fans will slaughter anyone who tries to mess with F1. But also there are yearly games, since the rules change every year and the new game is the new rules.
Do you want more arcade style?
What are the indie games that have piqued your interest?

Nothing to say they won’t - it’s actually pretty uncommon for the studio developing a live service to be the one supporting/maintaining it long term.

It must be nice to be so rich you can afford so many 8 hour games though.
- Comment on 'It Has Plateaued': Should We Be Worried About Console Gaming's Future? 3 weeks ago:
That’s what the publishers keep saying, because it distracts from the real issue. (also- 3D artists, 2D artists and graphics programmers aren’t doing gameplay systems…)
The real reason is the monetization of play, if they make things too fun, you’ll keep playing some osingle player game instead of their expensive live service titles.
They make everything bad to try and prop up those live services.

- Comment on Star Citizen Expose Paints a Fairly Bleak Picture: 'There's No Actual Focus on Getting the Game Done' 3 weeks ago:
Also to be fair (and critical), while Sean lied to both Sony and us about the state of the game-
They also probably did have most of everything they promised at once point, then the Christmas Flood happened. That’s when the lies started and but those lies were likely more for Sony rather than us, as it’s entirely possible Sony would have outright cancelled the game if they’d known how much was actually lost in the flood.
Instead they released what they could in the time they had left then just kept plugging away at it post release.

- Comment on Assassin's Creed Shadows delayed to February 14, 2025, abandoning season pass strategy, Steam launch day 1, and more 1 month ago:
It’s sort of new though, in the past an executive couldn’t really keep a pulse on the market themselves, they needed real world connections, they needed information that wasn’t just available at their fingertips and the only way to readily get it was relying on people under them to feed truthful and useful information and not just be ‘yes men’.
Information is readily available at their fingertips now though, there is no excuse for being so disconnected and out of touch.

- Comment on The mod who bypass' the PSN login for God of War Ragnarök got removed on Nexus Mods 1 month ago:
Things that get removed by staff on nexusmods don’t show a ‘Not Found’ link or have the title renamed ‘DELETED’ - they generally show ‘removed by staff’ or ‘under moderation review since <date>’
This sounds like the typical mod drama, author has removed it for some reason and people are jumping to conclusions and/or the author is gaslighting people into the wrong conclusions.

- Comment on Jedi Survivor could have been great 1 month ago:
I probably missed out on a great game, but at the time I tried playing Fallen Order, I had a lot on my plate so never gave the game the time of day after a single misstep. (that’s unfair on the game)
In the first level, there is a section where you drop into a railcar and a pair of Stormtroopers are just standing there. They never shoot at you.
The only way forward is to kill them. They never shoot at you. I stopped and waited.
Cal murdered those Stormtroopers and that took my right out of the mindset of a Jedi right away.
