Forza 7 is a RIPOFF?

Thanks Jon and Mica! Huge Forza fan since the original and I'm glad to see you are covering this story.

Great, another game to the list which I won’t be buying because of this BS.  Thanks, microtransactions, for saving me lots of money this year. 

this will be the 1st forza i dont buy.  Horizons 3 was bad enough £80 for the ultimate version and then there was £20 of dlc that diddnt include.  I expect forza 7 to have those same levels of buy ins, so a £100 game that wants you to cough up to basically advance at a speed consistent with the older titles in the series sod it.

I get that this is greed... sorry business... but seriously? This is why regulations needed to be brought in in when it comes to trade descriptions - software companies should be held just as accountable to in terms of properly describing their products and I think the Chinese law requiring loot box contents and frequency tables is a good start but it would also be good to see an expected progression and completion speed for games too; RPGs are meant to take a long time, that's what people buy them for a slow and steady game but high-speed sports car racing games are not about the slow and steady... never have been, never will be unless they become bal and chained with microtransactions - well done M$ you live up to your name again...

Oh look, another game took something that used to be expected and permanent, and turned it into a perishable feature that can be bought to get your fix.
