    I love the Gran Turismo series but these nerfs pushing for microtransactions after the reviews period and I bought the game full price are unacceptable.

    Love the series but this one is currently hot garbage. I got the game shortly after launch and found several of the license tests had bugs making gold impossible.

O jogo deve prender o jogador pelo que é e pela sua qualidade, não por uma visão desconectada do estúdio. A sony deveria ficar mais atenta com essas práticas e não emitir cartas-brancas para coisas absolutamente estúpidas e anti-consumidor. As práticas da POlyphony são arbitrárias contra um consumidor que apoia a franquia e paga 70 dolares pelo jogo - o mínimo que podem fazer é permitir que o usuário jogue como quiser. Conseguiram destruir a ótima recepção que o jogo teve e fico aliviado em ter aguardado para avaliar o jogo no metacritic. saiu de um 10 de 10 para um 0 gigante e sonoro. Expand

    Graphics and gameplay are good, but the creators of the game want you to have no life and spend hours and hours to gain minimal credits.

    Micro transactions have ruined what should have been a brilliant game! It should have served as the go to driving game for both new fans as well as those who want the game for nostalgia.

Players who have already purchased please initiate a joint refund. I like this game very much, although the graphics quality is limited compared to GTS, but the physics engine and control feel have improved significantly. However, there will be very undesired slippage during the game, and slippage occurs more frequently than in the previous game. There is no difference between the photo mode and GTS, basically copy and paste. But after nearly ten hours of playing, I felt more disgusting and couldn't make ends meet. The prize money is much lower than the GTS, and the prize money for completing two or three races is not enough to modify a car. And expensive car maintenance. Not to mention that a large number of cars have significantly increased their prices compared to their predecessors. The price of microtransactions is five times higher than that of the previous game. If you want to buy the car you like in the brand center, it is still a long way off. I've been playing for so long that I can only drive some slow cars that I don't like. And the lottery system is also very ridiculous. I can only draw the worst reward a dozen times in the lottery, which makes me very much doubt that my luck is really so bad? The whole game is simply a poverty simulator. For the GT series, each player has their own favorite way to play. I'm a casual gamer who likes to collect cars and occasionally challenge driving schools and missions. But my gaming experience was completely destroyed by the GT7's design. The 1.08 patch released by Kazuno Yamauchi reduced the prize money of a large number of popular events by more than 50%, making it more difficult for players to buy their favorite cars through the competition prize money, forcing players to buy cars with MTX. The reputation is that players do not want players to GRIND money through individual tracks. But Kazunori Yamauchi, you have to recognize this, I paid $70 to buy the game to support you, and how I want to play the game I bought back is my right and my choice. What qualifications do you have to teach me to do things? What qualifications do you have to halve the already low pitiful race reward to force me to buy your MTX? The GT7 is an absolute semi-finished product, a test water that Sony and Polyphony Digital are greedy for. It destroyed my years of love for the GT series. It doesn't deserve $70, and $20 is too expensive. My request: 1. Revise the economic system. 2. The lottery system is restored to the GTS version. 3. The price of MTX been reduced by 90% and returned to the price of GTS. Expand

    Con unos gráficos desfasados de hace 2 generaciones atrás, las físicas y colisiones son un desastre para un juego que se hace llamar simulador. Otra de las cosas negativas es que te obligan a tener conexión permanente incluso para jugar al modo singler player y un completo desastre que el juego haya estado más de 24 horas con los servidores caídos haciendo imposible que se pueda jugar a cualquiera de los modos.
    Otro aspecto muy reprochable es el tema de los micro pagos, con prácticas totalmente arbitrarias contra el consumidor, incluso sacaron una actualización dificultando aún más el poder obtener crédito para el juego, obligando en alguna manera a pasar por caja. Un completo desastre. Si estos supuestamente dicen los Sonyers que es calidad? Encima llegan a tal punto de fanatismo que osan defender esta porquería!

    What an absolute insult to GT fans everywhere this game has become. This could have been a generation defining revisit to GT but what's become of it is a moneygrubbing microtransaction filled cesspool of an economy with a big upfront price tag to match.
    Was so hyped going in with all the discussion about weather effects and the love given to the driving experience - and to take all that

    The game was really good at release. After the latest patch, Polyphony Digital have shown they don't care about the gamers and are all about microtransactions.
    Do not buy this game, do not buy in game credits and do not buy future dlc for the game. I certainly won't be, unless they reverse their policy.

    The game feels identical to GT Sport from a driving perspective, which IMO is good. I don't notice a graphical difference as we're getting to the point where it can only look so real.

It's designed for a mouse and keyboard not a controller. The biggest issue is that I paid $150 dollars for a game that at some point during development shifted to a F2P game. The "RNG" is a lie. You will always get the lowest credit option when opening a loot crate as they want you to buy credits with money. You will not make enough money from races to be able to afford any of the legendary cars, as they want you to buy credits with real money. They increased the costs of many in game cars, as they want you to buy credits with real money. All of these changes were made AFTER the "critic" reviews. That's deceptive and honestly I expected better from Polyphony. This WAS a flagship franchise that greed has severely tainted. Expand

    Predatory micro transactions. They want over 200 Euro for some cars. For a full price title this is a absolutly no go.

    The game itself is fun, but the backgrounds are very lacking and often doesn't look that good.

    Gran Turismo 7 has a lot of good and plenty of great. The use of DualSense and the particularly well-tuned loading is exemplary, and there's a huge amount of work behind the game, with a lot of detail that's almost hard to believe at times. [Issue#318]

    Gran Turismo 7 brings to the tracks every single thing fans always wanted: the GT Mode everyone loves, plenty of customization options, car loads, classic scenarios and one of the best DualSense and 3D Audio experiences the PS5 has to offer. This is the best Gran Turismo experience we have ever seen in a long time.

    Gran Turismo 7 is a love letter to motorsport history and an impeccable technical showcase. The franchise's traditional formula gets good improvements, but it's still extremely true to its roots. One of the best racing series ever shines spectacularly on the PS5.
