This side of the audience complains things are too complicated and hard, the other side complains things are too shallow, simplistic, and immature. It sort of feels more like a children's game, except has many elements that children wouldn't even know how to USE, let alone be appealing to them. It's basically like the game tried to be just OKAY at everything, instead of being the BEST at some things. It's seems like the game has suffered from trying to make it appeal to EVERYONE, and trying to do to many things, instead of focusing more on specific elements that the core audience enjoys. In their attempt at also making it a more casual and accessible sandbox/playground, in an attempt to get more engagement from a broader range of player types, it has lost a lot of the appeal to the actual racing audience, and those interested in competitive racing. It seems to have lost it's sould, and pushed more towards a run of the mill, low effort/high profitability live service grind. A big focus on trying to artificially inflate the longevity, a big push for more of a live service style, and casual accessability, have really been a detriment to the core experience of Forza. However, it's actually feels like it has been the opposite. Towards the end of FH4, it felt like the series had reached its pinnacle, and I figured that FH5 would be an even FURTHER step up in quality. This is the EXACT same thought I had with FH5. However, it's feeling like we're at the end of an era, and GTA is nothing more than a money milking cash grab, with no improvement or innovation.

GTA has always at the top of the class when it came to great games, and felt like it would always be something to look forward to the next release. The original founder of the GTA series even left the company. Since then, the been milking that game for years, adding more grinding, releasing GARBAGE ports, and just running things into the ground.

When the next last gen version of GTAV launched, it seemed like the best thing since sliced bread.

I saw you actually mentioned Rockstar in your post, but before I even read it, GTA is the first thing that came to mind.
