Not big into racing games, but FH6 is making me interested. Last racing game I really got into was burnout paradise on the PS3 I think. I don’t care about online at all, this would pretty much be solo story play, and exploring Tokyo.
I just don’t know much about forza, the different editions, if I’d like the controls. Is horizon more like burnout or NFS, or more sim racing?

The only racing games I have ever liked are
The games listed above were not my choice, but the only things I had, so I enjoyed them. The only racing game that I actually enjoyed and was my choice was NFS Payback, because of well designed heist-like missions. It’s not perfect and left me wanting more. I haven’t played the Driver series, but have heard that it has similar concept.
I don’t like games that are just races, it because it starts feeling very monotonous. I’m not much into cars and modding either, so that’s also a thing. I did try launching a pirated copy of Forza Horizon 5 on my linux, didn’t work, so never really tried that either.
