  • The game had a free-to-play weekend a few months ago, and I must say that it was somewhat disappointing, particularly in terms of gameplay, but not “aweful”. I personally find the monetization model repulsive. The game is just barely half a year old, but it already has 3 season passes for $10 each. It remains on my wishlist for whenever it is available as a complete bundle for a few euros, but I definately don’t see me getting it anytime soon.

    As far as gameplay goes, I much prefered the Lego Expansion for Forza Horizon 4 back then.

    As far as playing it on the steam deck: It played fine I wasn’t able to notice any framedrops, but the fan was spinning up more than I would have expected, given the graphics.

    EDIT: If you’re looking for a fun “toy racer”, you might be interested on Hot Wheels Unleashed: https://store.steampowered.com/sub/730504/ It also suffered from a predatory monetization model when it was released, but the GOTY edition is a complete bundle. I’d recommend not getting its sequel (Hot Wheels Unleashed 2), until it too gets the GOTY treatment as a complete bundle.
