I am hoping that Forza is more like Horizon 5 in performance vs Forza 7. That game is locked at 72 FPS max.

No problem, since You won't even reach those values... WCCFTech couldn't get 60fps with 4090 in 4K.

Total War I can hold off on for now, but will definitely check it out at some point. Forza I want to check out soon if it supports triple monitors. Lords of the Fallen is one I want to try first.

I've been testing the headstart version and it's terrible from a technology perspective. Very confusing settings menu, some sort of hidden upscaling that makes everything blurry that can't be turned off. Multiplayer is supposedly locked at 60 FPS, but it isn't.

Curious if we will get a deep dive? :)

I've been hearing a lot of this, but so far there haven't been many reviews which actually address the performance issues going on.
Can't say I'm shocked though, FH7 had serious demons when it came out for PC...

With the lack of Content and pay for cars system I think I will only be getting Forza on Gamepass. It sucks that MS expects you to pay over $129 CAD to get more cars but the base price of $89 CAD is also a slap in the face for a Game that promotes itself as a Simulation with 20 tracks and how could they leave out the track that defines Forza in Sebring. I will and have been playing 7 for the past month and enjoy it as a Racing game but 60 FPS limit on my 144hz monitor does create some issues. The thing is the controls for Forza are butter smooth on a Gamepad but you are not getting that high speed feeling like Grid or Project Cars. So I guess FPS makes a difference after all. The videos I have seen so far only have 60-70 FPS as the limits I have seen but it does look good. It's a holiday and I am into some Craft beer that delivers on a holiday so I will go on. they need to make sure that they add Mosport Park for the Canadian users. We are in a new generation of racing in the Endurance space. Games like Forza are the foundation of the change so how in the hell do they do not the BMW, Porsche, Toyota (Latest), Ferrari, Acura or Puegeot Hypercars in their latest iteration? Thanks for the Cadillac and 787B among others but only 1 new Hypercar is a travesty in a Game released in exactly this time. There is so much excitement (among Racing fans) about 2024 and beyond in the Endurance space this Game should give me instant gratifiaction in that quest but I will not give you money for less content than 7.

Right now it doesn't look like it, maybe if they fix those blur and settings issues. I already wasted too much time on it
