I only played a bit of rune factory (I think 4) and it seemed like it was a ton of story and very controlled with the farming aspect. It could be I didnt play enough though

Yeah kinda, or the incentive to have a car you keep amping up with new gear and parts rather than it being cheaper and easier to just buy a new car.
Like forza horizon 1, the upgrades felt expensive and meaningful and new cars were so expensive. Could be nostalgia goggles though

Hmmm I’ll habe to look into it. I seriously doubt it, though.

Sign of the times.
I used to buy a ton of games. Its now hard to justify with the price of everything going up so dramatically. I still buy more than average, but probably more along the lines of one every few months and never full price releases.

I would be far more open to mo they subscriptions if I didnt have to pay for the game upfront.
I would probably play wow and pay monthly if i didnt have to pay for the game and all the expansions as well as the subscription.
Just too much money imo for what I would get out of the experience
