As a big Forza fan since the series launched, I feel like every time they make a new announcement it does something to kill my enthusiasm for the upcoming reboot even more.
First there was the live services announcement that totally killed my anticipation, then they talked about plans to make the game a lot more grindy and time consuming to get to where I can do the type of things I traditionally enjoyed from the series, now they're talking about how it won't even have split screen anymore, with some plan to maybe add it at some later unannounced date, and who knows if that will ever happen.
It's like Turn 10 has not only lost it's way, but they are apparently doing everything they can to make the game more like Gran Turismo 7, and embracing all the flaws that I have against that game while adding new ones of their own, and I really have to question why I would even bother with this when I can just continue playing GT7, which probably has better physics and everything anyways.
It's just sad for me how this series that I enjoyed so much is going down this path, and it's crazy how some people keep trying to defend these decisions. The whole thing is just turning me off.
It's also made me realize how live services has created a situation where these games are so demanding and time consuming that I really only have time for just one of them when it comes to genres and niches.
