Forza Horizon 6 has officially launched from Playground Games and Xbox Game Studios, with Valve getting Proton updated ready for it on Linux / SteamOS.
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
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.

Or you could pirate it
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
Or just pay version 4 or 5 because it’s exactly the same game.
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.

This. I can still play most of the fh3 campaign without an internet connection. Can’t say the same for fh5.
