demo concept is fun, obviously ends fairly quickly in terms of achievable goals but proves the core concept is good.

The greatest survival game of all time. The most in-depth sandbox editor i've ever seen lets you create a game that's just as hard or easy as you like, and a vibrant modding community lets you tweak just about any aspect of the game. Incredibly free-form, infinitely repayable. You can lose everything you've built in one bite, so the underlying tension of a shambling zombie never quite disappears.

And the name generator called me ♥♥♥♥ Gamez, so that's an instant bonus star.

all my friends are idiots

Fun DLC, usual complaints about CDLC implementation apply. VIP rescue scenario is fun, but suffers from the usual issues of basegame AI. Western Sahara map is fun, and a nice change of scenery from Altis. Worth buying, especially on sale, if you want more basegame+ content provided at a high quality

the driving is good, the multiplayer is fun. the barebones is great, the trimmings suck balls.
runs badly, looks terrible.

3 major updates in:
runs slightly better (hurray). new content that does nothing to make the game interesting, still looks terrible even at maximum settings 99.9% of the time. it's rare that I like a game less after months of 'improvements', but FM23 still feels like a rushed slapjob of a game.

5 major updates in:
wow, finally the nurburg ring. shame the game still runs and looks like ass. nothing like struggling to reach 60 fps around the 'ring in test-drive mode. goty

1 year anniversary:
still not worth your money or time. dull, ugly and lacking in up-to-date content.

1 and half years. Reinstalled to see Fujimi. Still not a good game. Fell for it again award.

better than it has any right to be

still better than it has any right to be. My GOTY, and in my top 5 games of all time.

Patch 5 fixed my wife. The people at larian are incredible, and the epilogue party has fixed myu two issues with the game. Please play this damn game!

Fun cars, wish there were maybe some cars in place of the 2 additional Huracans but this game is just Huracan collecting sim now i guess.
