The personal assistant dialogue/character interactions are uninspired and needless, they’re just annoying and get in the way of gameplay. Oh but wait, the gameplay is now ruined because race payouts are incredibly cheap compared to the prices of cars/components, making the game a boring slog in which you can’t even drive the cars you actually want to drive without wasting your life grinding away for credits. By the way, why the hell is the chase camera static? You can’t even move the camera to the sides to get a look at your car/your surroundings.

    Greedy basteerds, their latest update made an already underwhelming game even worse. Not in your life would I buy credits. I think they are going to have a hard time making this up to their loyal fan base. I dont think i would buy another title after this.

    Shame on Sony and PD for letting their greed ruin what could have been a great game. Reducing credit payouts for races and the roulette is rigged to only give the lowest value prize. Forcing microtransaction after already paying $90 CAD for a full game. No chance I'd pay more money for credits.

    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…

    In Poland we have nice name for these jackpot machines - one-hand bandit. And these name for me is a synonym to Polyphony Digital and their Gran Turismo 7.

    I grew up with GT, it helped shape my love for cars. The game has a lot of what i remember and love. The thing that kills me and brings my score, is you have to spend more money to get cars. Its a terrible layout. Not worth your time! you are better off not even looking at the game for what it is now.

    The game is a scam and sony crossed a line. They changed the amount of credits you earn for races to make sure it takes hours upon hours to buy a single car. They cheated costumers by giving reviewers a version of the game with no micro transactions and better earning races, then flipped the switch when it came time to monetise. This game doesn’t deserve your money.

Not only were they not an accurate account of the game, but 2 days later the game was patched, making it even more unplayable.

    I've been a Gran Turismo, and general racing game fan, since PS1. I've played essentially everything. This is by far the worst, most shameless, bastardization of, not only the GT series but all racing games on any platform. Period. Allow me to elaborate.

    Most reviews on this site highlight the ridiculous microtransaction issue and nerfing of "in-game" rewards to make the grind even more idiotic. However, there are several additional glaring faults with the title that I would like to highlight.

    First the "online-only" issue. Yes, the game, like many others, is now online only and all you can do offline is play terrible music rally races with electropop versions of classical music. It's an insult to the very idea of a simulation to even have this nonsense in the game, let alone make it the only offline possible play. This is a problem because of point two.

    Two: Frequent and oddly timed outages. Maybe it's a release thing, but the game feels like it's been offline a lot, and has had at least 1 full day blackout. Also, the regular maintenance, if you live in North America, is in the middle of your prime gaming time after work. That said, even when you do get online there are several issues; keep reading.

    Three: The "campaign mode" is sad compared to previous games. You are locked into playing a linear series of races where you earn cars based on themes, starting from awful little Japanese hybrid compacts, that have no business in a racing game other than a plug for Toyota's next line of gutless, ugly, and boring commuter cars. You eventually evolve to better cars but there is little choice and you don't earn enough money to purchase any cars you would like for these races. You're stuck driving the reward from the last race, or Cafe Book as they call it. You also almost always need to immediately upgrade these cars to make them competitive for the next races wasting your hard-earned cr. upgrading cars you randomly are assigned.
    For instance: In the Mustang Cafe Book you're awarded a mustang from the previous book to compete. It assigned you one of 3 randomly and you need to sink cr. into it to make it competitive. You then can earn the Mustang you actually want but will need to sink cr. into that to use it for the last race. You cannot sell cars so you cannot recoup costs or modify your collection to focus on the cars you want.
    Finally, the Cafe Book campaign doesn't allow for any deviation from the linear progression. It's boring and locks you into a loop where you're forced to proceed and spend cr. on unimportant cars and upgrades just to progress.

    PS. Polyphony, no one buying your game wants to race one of two pickups, 400+ cars in-game, there is no need for 3 mandatory pickup truck races.

    Four: Yes there are more issues! The 3 types of car dealerships. The used car dealer is back, which should be a great thing but there is a limit to what it carries and it doesn't change stock very often. The bigger issue is that many, about 1/3 of the used cars, you earn in later Cafe Book races anyway. So if you do get jazzed up to see that R34, for about 300,000+ CR, it doesn't matter, you'll earn one later, plus if you do buy it, there is no alternate reward, you just don't get a car for winning the race. The brand dealership sells new cars, however very few offerings are actually new, all are usually 5 years old, and there is a lot of recycled GT concept garbage from older games for stupid high prices. The last dealership is the legendary car dealership, which has the cool old and unique cars you probably bought GT for. These are your AE86 Treuno, Lambo Countach, McLaren F1, etc. etc. Guess what? The prices of these things are through the roof, The GT500 Supra Race Car is 92 000 000 cr. At the price of 19.99 USD for 2 million cr. this is $920 USD, actual money! Now the cars you can afford in real life, you ALSO can't afford in games! The joke here is for $920 I can go pick up and Xbox, Forza Horizon 5, and a racing wheel, which I literally did do, and yes it's better, but I owe it to you, the reader to inform you of a potential mistaken purchase of GT7. But I digress...

    Five: In-game I bought a Focus ST - not super flashy but I actually drive a Focus ST in real life. Well let me tell you, the simulation stops there. Being an FF car in GT7 means that you can't make a 90 degree turn at ANY speed. According to GT7 I shouldn't be able to pull into my own driveway or drive in the rain. I'm honestly miffed.

    There is more wrong with the game than I have here, however, I'm at the Metacritic character limit. My advice to the consumer is to go get Forza, Asetto Corsa, or NFS Heat and avoid this disappointment altogether.    … Expand

The sport mode (online races) has regularly not given me credit for poll positions and winning races. You now have to tune cars yourself to get them in regulation for races for sport mode. This is kind of fun at first but you may waste hours on a car that just isn’t capable of being competitive in the class it’s in regardless of how you tune it. GT sport at least did the tuning for you so you didn’t waste hours and credits attempting to get a car to be competitive, only to find out it’s just not possible with the current car you have. Main complaint for me though, is the always online addition. I get that for multiplayer game modes, but why when the servers go down on the games end, is it not designed to still work and let you play single player content? Just a dumb design. The game will essentially be dead when servers turn off. There will be no way to play this game in the future like there is for the old GT games of the past. It’s pretty sad.… Expand

    I play the game only as a single player but you always need to be online (DRM) and the other day for 30hours the game was unplayable due to a badly tested patch and the lack of a rollback scenario, only because the game is a "game as a service".

    Vow. you pay 70-€ and then you pull an EA out of your hat? MTX in a full-price game is the way you loose me as a customer, when it is p2w. If that is the future of triple A, keep it.

    The whole debate about next-gen game pricing getting ridiculous at this point. Horizon Forbidden west and Eldenring...yes please take my money.

    Pay to drive, endless grind, always online scam. Worst of both worlds as it's both paid and microtransacted. This is inferior to the previous installment, and comes at no compelling reason to own. In addition to that, there are no next-gen advantages such as raytracing, and the sense of speed is even worse than other GTs in the past, which is to say, it feels like you're driving a lawnmower.

The game presents a short-lived “cafe” mode that locks the rest of the game behind it, and when the credits roll you are reminded how little progress you have made. But look over there - an invitation to buy a $2.5million car that expires in a week.. you won’t earn that, not now especially that they have reduced the pay outs for honest races. But you can spend $40 on top of the $80 you paid for the game for that one car. The game is just going to push the next on you anyways. For a game that tries to put forward a philosophy of “pure racing” and the joy of motor sports and automotive admiration, it sure does love to hide it behind paywalls and gacha lottery tactics. It’s a shame, because the gameplay is enjoyable, but all the trappings around it are soul-sucking. Hopefully Polyphony Digital realizes their issues and balances the game in a fair and fun way that rewards players for racing, not pulling out their credit card. I would give it a 4, but -1 for being basically always online required.… Expand

I'll wait for the update and adjust my score accordingly.

    The core racing feels excellent. The graphics are good, but I wouldn't say great. The cafe menu campaign is actually really well done and a great way to help non-hardcore players into the game(like myself). Overall I had a lot of fun with the game and there is a lot to like.

    However, two major issues bring the score way down. Always online, I actually wasn't worried about this as I always have internet. However, a basic patch ended up bringing the game offline for over a day. This is not an mmo, the always online is mainly to save your progress. And the bigger issue, the cost of vehicles vs the amount you earn. It was already at a point where you would probably only experience 15% of the vehicles without grinding. Then with the latest patch they greatly reduced the earnings of many races that we could previously grind. Now it is nigh on impossible to unlock anymore high end vehicles unless you pay for DLC.

    If you go in knowing you only will have access to about 15% of the car lineup after completing most of the SP content, then go for it, still a good game. However, if this is not okay(and you don't like always online), vote with your wallet.    … Expand
