I love this game.

This might be a useless post for many but I'll go ahead with it regardless. I bought this game around a month back and have clocked around 100 hours already. I suffer from anxiety disorder and paranoia and was constantly stressed for years before this, owing to the rigours of work life, health, family and what not. I have since quit a freelancing gig to reduce the load on my body and mind and I use that time to play my PS5. Even that wasn't a great solution as online multiplayers on EA FC or COD only added to the stress.

But since GT7, I have found a really good outlet to cool down. The single player is really beautifully designed and is well balanced - challenging enough to make every win or gold trophy extra satisfying. I know there are a lot of things we don't like about the game such as rolling starts etc. but I wanted to take this time to appreciate how well thought out the single player experience is. I can own every car in the game without paying a single penny and I can compete with some top drivers using only my joystick. It is really the only game I play now and this is my far the best $55 I've ever spent. It has genuinely helped so much with my mental health.
