    I had an experience dealing with a flat tire recently that seems applicable here.
    The tire was going flat, was able to limp the car to a nearby gas station to use their air machine. But the air machine was broken, only there wasn't any sign saying it was broken not did it prevent you from inserting money.
    After calling a friend with a compressor to come air my tire, I went inside to tell the Indian guy inside the gas station that they should put a sign or something on the machine, so people stop putting money in a broken machine. "Okay".
    And then I thought. Why should the gas station bother fixing the air machine. Normally people drive up, but in a few dollars, air up their tire and leave. With a broken machine, they drive up put in a few dollars, get pissed when it doesn't work, and then leave.
    Why fix the machine. It generates the same revenue even when broken.
    And that's the problem here. Why should Turn10 care to "fix" this game at all. Devs are figuring this out. Why bother improving their games. Just put out some slick marketing that gets people to buy a shit game, and then you've got their money despite selling a broken product. Rinse and repeat with the next title. Why spend money to fix and improve games when you can just...not, and make the same revenue.
    This gets back to the use of short term contractors mentioned in the vid. Why bother having a dedicated team who cares about the game, when some rando rotating contractors can do the job cheaper.

    I miss the days Forza tried to compete with Gran Turismo.
    Because it pushed Gran Turismo to be better. While I think GT3 and GT4 are the best sims of the 2000s, Forza 4 is the best sim of the 360/PS3 era overall. Specially because GT lost its way on GT5 and GT6. Only getting better with GT Sport after the stiff competition of Forza 4 and others.
    Forza 4 pushed GT to get more realistic sounds, ditching the synthetic sounds of the PS2 games. AssetoCorsa pushed GT to have more realistic driving.
    Currently Forza lacks on graphics, sound (Although sounding good, it is very unrealistic, specially the cockpit view sound), and the physics… lets say it reminds of Need for Speed Shift 2… in a bad way…
    I’m not a Forza fan, always have been and always will be manly a GT guy.
    Forza 4 is the best Forza in my opinion. I’ll always remember fondly of Forza 4.

      I can agree with that, but Forza Motorsport's lack of rallycross and off-road racing is what drives some of GT fans away. Forza is stuck in 2000s tarmac-only trend and never moved on since, while even the most hardcore of all iRacing has Trophy Trucks and rallycross as some of their features.

    I still listen to the Motorsport 4 menu music quite often and as much as I love it, its quite depressing thinking about how good we had it back then. The decline has been simply incredible, from 5 being little more than a graphics showcase, to 6 being generally liked because it was the closest to heights of 4, and just when I thought it couldn't get much worse than 7, Motorsport was released.
    The stubborn refusal to acknowledge what people loved, let alone reintroduce features has ended up with, as you said, the destruction of the series.
    It's like this game was conceived by people who had heard about GT Sport and never bothered to find out why it was popular (although not with a lot of fans of the old games). They just thought "ok, all eggs in the basket of multiplayer, but we won't go beyond just having a meaningless rating system, and we definitely won't consider what made Forza popular in the first place".

    I'm currently working in a game studio where we also use outsourcing. But, it's important to realize what's actually being outsourced - assets (vehicles, environment objects, characters, ...). Can't image game design elements/mechanics being outsourced, because it would only make things more difficult and generally doesn't make sense (maybe if you have some veteran game designer as consultant).
    You're leaning little bit too much on this and extrapolating why the feel of the game is different. While I agree with you on the "empty/uninspired" feel, I don't think it's because of outsourcing.

    They spend their time fixing what isn't broken while day one issues persist in game.
    Every new update brings a slew of new performance issues and content that was obviously never play tested.
    I have over 1200hrs into the game- not because it's great, but because there isn't another sim (or sim adjacent) title that lets me modify shitboxes and race them where they shouldn't be, and the number of 'regular cars" (non- super rare/ highest spec models) has dwindles with every passing installment.

This is coming from someone who plays both titles with a wheel.
    In its current state, the game is "fine." Some areas have seen improvements, but it still lacks features compared to FH5. The graphics aren’t great but are usable. Lobbies are fairly clean, but it’s rare to have a 20+ player session without at least one person rage-quitting.

    The game definitely feels soulless. One thing that irritates me about Forza is the fact that they haven’t even made an effort to improve the car customization options. We’ve had the same one splitter and one spoiler option for just about every car for over a decade now I get it’s hard to add new visual parts for over 600+ cars but at the same time there’s several cars that could use new spoilers and bumpers and they just don’t add really anything other than maybe an ugly looking body kit. glad I got this game through game pass and didn’t spend any money on it.

The career allowed you to drive all types of cars and work up to the highest class. This one is sterile and boring. Its only for hardcore sim fans where forza 7 was fun for everyone. They need a real campaign without warm up laps, collection levels with rewards, and driver levels with rewards to feel like forza. As it stands id rather play gt7, project cars 3, or forza 7.

Also the light intensity of the head and back lights of the car, though not on the level of GT7, shine better (they need to fix the intensity in day time.

But the final dissapointed me, more than GT7 (Only bad things was micro but other was OK not good, not bad) it make me have Turn 10 like the worst of the worst.
    It's unbeliable that Forza Motorsports maked promises and alot of things and features that step up like a Simulator and not even a Simcade game.
    But no, they stayed in the same thing without fight against the kings (Assetto Corsa Competizione, Rfactor2, Iracing, Automobilista 2 and others) but preffered stayed fighting against GT7 i mean...

    So FM8 has better multiplayer racing than FM7. The inclusion of a penalty system, even a broken one, is better than the ram sessions that occured on FM7. The addition of endurance racing and the new addition of multiclass racing is very good, and I'm glad it's there. The problem with FM8 is it's not a great motorsport game. It's a car game more than a motorsport game. It focuses too much on driving as many difference cars as possible, similar to Horizon, which is a problem. I think if they had gotten rid of the majority of standard road cars and focused on a good career mode where you start in an FIAT Abarth series, then move to a Touring Car series, then a GT4, GT3, GT2, Le Mans, and maybe even open wheelers, it could've been a lot better. They recently added NASCAR to the game, and it's great fun, and the next thing they're adding is a V8 Supercar tour with Mount Panorama being added to the game.
    I think they needed their version of GT Sport. Focus on the racing, focus on the stuff around racing, and people will have fun. Want to Drive the latest hypercars? You got Horizon. Want to drive a GT3 car around Spa? Motorsport. Too many ideas, too much material, not enough focus.

    It just feels too unnatural and electronic. I dont even have to play it, I can tell based on gameplay videos, and my experience in past Forza games. It has slowly gone down hill after Horizon 3 in my opinion. Probably the biggest selling point for me is sound, and after that the driving experience. The car sounds are nothing like they used to be. I especially started to notice this in FM6, and then FM7 was the nail in the coffin for me. I recently played Horizon 1 and I was so excited to play it again. It just sounds so good, and the racing doesn't feel so electronic and precise. If you compare the sound of the Lexus LFA or Pagani Zonda R from FM4 and Horizon 1 to the newest Forza games, it's just crazy. It sounds so fake and electronic and really takes away from the game play.

    This game (along with Nascar and Local track racing) got me into cars. I still remember finding the Scion xB and the Ford Mustang SCCA Tiger car and wanting those cars in real life in my own 4-6 year old mind.
    when 5-7 was released, I still played them and was upset by the bugs and glitches in the games but still had friends online that we could screw around with the game and make the most of it.
    I bought a Series S being my first console I bought with my own money and was excited to see and play the new Forza Horizon game and yet was disappointed in it after not even an hour playing, Same thing with Forza 8/Motorsport.
    Calling this the same as the first game is an embarrassment. I feel bad for the younger generations who get feed slop and lies unlike the generations before them, not experiencing the title the same way we had as kids or teens.
    Obviously I think this is just a common issue with modern gaming, not just the racing genre.

      yeah fm8 has whatever controller "assists" hard coded into the game. so even when youre playing with everything pro and unassisted settings, youre still getting speed sensitive steering , which leads to the chronic understeer from controllers, and if you somehow oversteer, they actually give you full steering lock, but only in the countersteer direction. so in every turn, while on controller, you'll have maybe 20% of your full steering lock going into the turn, and then trying to save a slide requires you to recalibrate your brain for 100% steering lock in the opposite direction, which youll probably over correct for, meaning youre now going out of the turn, again with 20% of your steering lock. its such a dumb system, made for such a specific style of driving. and when people tell me "you gotta tune the cars to make them drive well" i tune it out, because i shouldnt have to tune a car to get it to behave somewhere in the realm of actual reality.

Forcing me to do these races in the beginning and only giving me the choice between 3 cars they don't even show me the statistics of, then push you into the cup. As someone who has played through GT4 and GT5 recently, the lack of freedom to how to progress, lack of style, hand-holding, car opponents that crash into you and heavy steering with controller has already made me doubt if I'll continue to play the game, even if I have "free access" to it on game pass.

    Tone, consistency, passion, immersiveness, these intangible aspects are way more important than anything. AAA titles, in this case a "sim" type circut racing game is not for tablet playing kids or teens exactly. If you wanna cut cost or half ass your project you bet people can sniff it out.
    GT7 on the other hand is either grind it out or buy the in game money via microtransaction but you can just tell a group of people pour their heart and soul into it just by looking at the car model.
