    I'm a dad and I'm not trying to spend my hard earned real money to buy additional virtual vehicles. Nor do I have time to grind hours of races daily. I get with the car scene it's pay to play but I'm already a car enthusiast and pay to play in real life.

Unnamed arcade racers just can't offer that experience and unnamed sim racers are lacking the 'game' aspect that this offers.

    GT 7 is weird, challenging, eccentric and unnecessary at times but that in NO way steals from it's experience. It's the ultimate car ownership game. And if Credits bother you just get good and do all circuit experiences to Gold level. Then you'll be good enough to compete online and have enough credits to buy whatever cars you want. 10/10.    … Expand

    EDIT: with the fixes to in-game economy that rolled out in 1.12, I'm revising my score from 3 to 7. This feels too generous in some ways (since most of the other issues below still exist), but in other ways the game has a lot more going for it and generally feels pretty fun despite all of the below.

    =====

    I tried to like it, but there's just so much wrong with this game. You need to be online to play single-player (so with the maintenance update debacle today, I couldn't play the game at all). Practically all of the single-player races are rolling start, with the lead car sometimes given a 45-second lead. The roulette mechanic is lame. Earning credits was already too slow, and with the 1.07 patch, is now about twice as slow as 1.06. Microtransactions in a game I just spent $90 CAD. Bugs with licence tests. Dumb AI. A generally unintuitive UI that requires too many button presses. A tuning shop that isn't organized by part type. The single-player "menu book" experience is too short. I guess I could go on, but why bother...    … Expand

    Of course, how many bad things are written about the game here, horror! I've been playing for 50-70 hours and I like everything, of course there are a couple of quibbles about buying paint for a car and for work games without the Internet, but it's not worth it that the rating of this game was 2.0

    This game is proof that you can never take the user review score serious. I understand the frustration but 1s and 0s? Grow up. The credit earn rate was fixed anyway so it’s not even an issue anymore lmao. It’s a fun racer and a return to form for gt. Don’t let the children reviewing on here discourage you from trying it out.

    Pros.
    Single player GT functions are back.
    Cons.
    Single player functions are dependent upon connection to operational GT7 servers.

    The game economy is brutal, pushing HUGE micro transactions. To be fair, they’re working on this.

    The roulettes are rigged.

    This game has so much potential. I am glad PD has listened to the community about payouts, however they have been completely silent on the always online aspect. It should never be a requirement to be online in a single player game. Twice after the 30 hour shutdown, I have been unable to play due to maintenance.

    Oringinal review March 2022, Score 0:
    Gran Turismo 7 is a fantastic game, but what Sony and Polyphony Digital with monetisation and reducing race payouts is just greedy. It puts them almost equal with EA, Take Two and Ubisoft in being greedy publishers, that only care for money and not gamers.

    We all know that reducing race payouts and increasing car costs is a way to make us spend real money on buying credits. Before the 1.07 patch, I was thinking that buying credits was not a bad option, if I didn’t have enough at the time, now that Sony and Polyphony Digital are trying to force us to buy credits by reducing payouts, I will never
    spend any money on credits.

    Also, why do we need online connection to servers to play solo? This make no sense and just makes it impossible to play when the servers are down.

    I’ve played Gran Turismo since it first came out in 1997, 25 years ago, for the first week of Gran Turismo 7, I was feeling very nostalgic, seeing the old track in there upgraded form. Now after patch 1.07 I’m feeling frustrated and disappointed, the reduced payouts make the game too much of a grid to earn enough to buy and upgrade the top cars.
    We know Sony and Polyphony Digital did this because not enough people were spending money on buying credits, and we were playing the high payout races repeatedly to earn credits, but this is a key part of the game, we race because it is fun and to earn credits to buy more cars. We don’t play games to spend money on microtransactions.

    Another problem with the game is the roulette mechanic, it is too much like gambling in its visual presentation, and it is rigged to give the lowest reward 95% of the time. I tested this buy saving up tickets and then opening them in one go, and I pretty much got the lowest reward every time.    … Expand

    This should be a free game. You don’t own iy, only play online and they can change the rules at any time. Disgusting behavior. Some cars cost $250 to cash to buy and impossible to earn from credits. It would take 30 years playing every day to buy all the cars.

The graphics are amazing and the ray tracing is a sight to see. However you have to play for hours just to unlock basic things. Just make the game open world already

    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.
