pirate one of the recent forza horizon games & get really good at setting rivals times or laying down drift lines. get really disappointed in the game's fomo nature and poor customization. play dirt rally for kicks and sweat so bad you can't hold onto your controller. stare at your steam library and wish there was a cooler game that felt this good to drive in. pivot back to night runners. or play any of the Tokyo Xtreme Racer games. the 2025 game has been relatively fun TBH. but its still missing something & its not necessarily worth the $50 price tag i don't think so maybe there's a better way to grab that too lol

i find myself coming back to night runners bc the atmosphere is just right. the customization is just good enough i can make something that fits right in with the other AI cars, that i would also enjoy owning irl. idk u might be shit outta luck. emulate one of the old NFS games? Underground 2 and Most Wanted are right there & they're pretty fire.
