30 fps cutscenes in EVERY CONSOLE on EVERY MODE is completely unacceptable and literally ruins the game (I stopped playing after the tutorial because of it). FOV is horrible (way too close), no Freedom Cry DLC (+$85 of Ubislop cosmetics at release) and litany of bugs (I got stuck inside a tree in the tutorial area). Not worth $60. $40 at release and $20 on sale.

This game actually deserves to get negative reviews if it were possible based solely on the fact that a different game has been provided to critics and professional reviewers. Not a single reviewer had 99% of the single player portion of the game blocked if no active internet connection was provided and there was no free to play monetization present during the review period. A mostly single player game, from a series that has been mostly single player focused since its inception, cannot and should not ever have an always online requirement, especially it is implemented with the sole purpose of forcing ludicrous monetization on players who have paid full price for the game. There is no way to play off the disc with the console off-line to earn credits properly as the game locks you out of content unless you are online and up to date to its latest patch. Absolutely unacceptable. I returned my disc for a refund and I am hoping there might be an attorney out there who loves GT and decides to do a class action lawsuit for the dishonest, shady and anti consumer garbage Polyphony and Sony have pulled with this game so they’ll have to rethink continuing with this garbage and going down this path with other games going forward.
