This isn't how you start a 'racing games are bad' thread

Forza horizon 3 is looking nice

Well, I don't think racing games are all that bad. The driving mechanics are still fun and stuff but aren't race sims supposed to be "real"? Doesn't that also include the atmosphere? Shit like Gran Turismo 6 not having cockpit view for all cars is just unreasonable.

You're right, that does look nice.

How much detail does an object you see for 3 blurry seconds need? That's why racing games have low quality scene complexity

What is that from, CMR 2005?

Assetto Corsa

can't spell Assetto Corsa with ass, amirite

>playing racing games for the scenery

>playing racing games for anything other than scenery

That's like playing a sports game for the menus.

Its actually more like playing a sports game to see the fans cheering in the stands.

Football manager does pretty well

oh shit, can't fucking wait

looks pretty comfy to me to be honest

>bad graphics are comfy

20 years later and some people think FFVII is 'comfy'. I don't agree, but you're not the ultimate judge of graphics and taste.
