    Say hello to another game that ruined its economy just after the launch/review window for the sake of microtransactions.

    I used to love the series. It did some questionable choices for the sake of money as far back as GT5 (selling single use paints as DLC, for instance), but it was never egregious, certainly nothing like today's games can get. GT7, however, already started out as mean with its rewards (chiefly the roulette spins that just happen to give you the lowest reward 90% of the time), and with the latest patch, they turned the game into a total grindfest that also tries to tug on your FOMO strings (e.g. the system of invitations: brief windows to buy expensive cars you most likely can't afford)... unless you'd like to buy some in-game currency *nudge* *nudge*

    I badly regret buying this game. I'd love a refund, but after two weeks of playing daily, I doubt I'd get it (PSN is notorious for being stingy with those at the best of times)    … Expand

    first of all: this game should be F2P with this push towards microtrsactions. it was also nice from PD to add the microtrsactions after the review of the media. not a real GT. little things to do after you finish the cafe missions. licences and everything else take a couple of hours and thats it. no endurance races no b-spec mode.

    the ecomony in the game is trimmed to spend as much money as possible in micro transactions. really bad payouts and after the 1.07 patch they reduced the payout even further. honestly it could be a free to play title but I paid €70 for this nonsense. 25 years ago I played my very first GT. this is the last one. cheery on top, if you have no internet connection or they are doing updates the game is useless. you can drive arcade with a handful of cars for no money at all. everything else is turned off. this game is fundamentally broken! don‘t buy it but rather wait for a sale when it costs around €10.    … Expand

In the new update that brought the servers down they cut the race prizes in half which now makes it so that in order to buy one of the 12 million credits cars you'll have to do 350 races without spending a dime on anything Unless of course you buy credits for real money. Make it right Polyphony Digital, we know you can. Just look at GT1 to GT6.

    This is a predatory practice, trying to extract money from people who are not as good at controlling their spending.    … Expand

    The game is fantastic, but not being able to carry on my single player campaign because they are doing server maintenance is not good at all. Been unplayable for a full 24 hours.

    OK... it is now playable again, but gets boring fast as you don't win enough money in each race. I have therefore moved on to other better games.

    Only one raffle ticket is given each day, and the rewards are pathetically low. After the update, the earnings of the game have been reduced again, and it has become a micro-transaction insider game, right?

El juego está roto, desde el último update han bajado el valor de las recompensas de una forma brutal para que haya que pasar por caja si o si.

    Online obligatorio aunque quieras jugar offline, no podrás si no tienes internet o si los servidores no funcionan o simplemente si no quieres conectarte mientras juegas.Todo ello para proteger su modelo de juego avaricioso y que se hubiese podido hacer de otra forma, dejando modos disponibles para jugar offline pero ni puedes acceder a los coches que legítimamente hubieras comprado incluso con dinero real.

    80 euros por un juego que podría haber sido de 10 pero que gracias a la avaricia se ha convertido en una basura al romperse la economía del juego y no ser suficiente que se compre a precio de 80 euros si no que haya que gastar más de 40 euros para uno de sus coches al ser imposible conseguirlo sin grindeo y que si ya era difícil conseguirlo sin pagar antes del último update, ahora es imposible.

    Ahora mismo hay coches de casi 20 millones de Cr. lo que significa que habría que gastar unos 200 euros en comprar un solo coche, y hay bastantes coches de unos cuantos millones lo que desde la bajada de recompensas hace que un coche que en la realidad sería inaccesible para la mayoria, también sea inaccesible económicamente en la realidad. Antes la principal primicia es conduce juegos que de otra forma no podrías, ahora es paga por coches un dineral por coches que te gustaría conducir y que mucha gente seguirá soñando conducirlos incluso en el juego.

    Tenemos que quieren callar al mundo dando una recompensa de 1000000.

    No nos deberíamos de conformar con eso debería ser posible jugar con todos los coches comprados en los circuitos. Es una estafa el online obligatorio y dependiente de los servidores, una vez no puedes conectar, solo tienes humo.    … Expand

    In patch 1.07 Polyphony just made it harder to earn in-game credits by reducing race rewards in hope to force people to pay real money for it…

    I mean come on… with most of the money grab decisions from Sony this generation, this is still a new low. I am just gonna stop playing GT7 and go back to Horizon 5…..

    Game was patched to exclusively become a platform to get you to pay micro-transactions to have a good experience. Base gameplay was already barely affordable with in-game economy and that has been removed. Do not buy unless you want to spend hundreds-thousands of dollars for a decent experience, or lose the rest of your life to grinding single player races against a crappy AI.

    - The hard PUSH for microstransactions in this game is also absolutely infuriating. I payed 70 stupid euros for a game and they made it extremely hard to earn enough coins to buy some of the cars in the game if playing is not your full time occupation. And hear me well I'm a fan of the series and I used to love grinding in this game to earn cars, but this is now at a ridiculous level. They are also playing hard with FOMO by selling "rare" cars as "limited" to push the weakest people to use their real cash in their game. And WORST OF ALL, it was already bad enough but two weeks after the game released, they just pushed an update that divided by two almost all rewards for races, this is absolutely disgusting.
    - The campaign mode is the shortest (by far) and most linear of all games of the license. Where previous games used to feel like an RPG where you have to plan and make choices on your own, this game is so guided and you feel like everything is spoon fed to you chapter after chapter... Also there is not a single long race like Le Mans 24h or stuff like that

    So now I just learned about this horrible update reinforcing the pay-to-win aspect of the game and I can't even play the OFFLINE aspects of the game because they have been maintaining their server for at least 10 hours apparently. And I paid 70€ for this piece of ****, this is insane, absolutely ridiculous.

    I won't even comment of the few positive aspects of this game because they are largely outbalanced and I'm just very sad and disgusted.    … Expand

    Ive played and loved every GT since they came out.. this is an embarrassing show by PD

    No new cars, heavily directed gameplay, obvious money grabs, failure to fix their polished turd with rapid action on grinders trying to farm credits, rolling starts for days, laughable roulettes, worst dirt races ever, clunky interface, busy hud, pathetic AI, odd water physics, poor explanation of settings for noobs, and awful online only **** with random errors dicking over players... there's more, but that's enough for a 0.

    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.
