Here are some fun facts about this week's cars:

1998 Renault Sport Spider

This car was the result of Renault needing to promote its Renault Sport brand very early on. It ran its own one-make race series called the "UK Spider Cup" from 1996-1999. This channel named Graham Saul was able to find footage of it all the way from 1996.

2006 Vauxhall Astra VXR

The Vauxhall Astra H (2004-2014) is the first-ever Opel Astra/Vauxhall Astra generation to receive a VXR trim (outside of the UK, this similar model was called the Opel Astra OPC GTC, as well as the Holden HSV VXR in Australia).

I think immersive Horizon Stories and narrative experiences are... not something Horizon's core audience wants. What they want is a map that fits their fantasy of that region and its car culture, with quirky experiences to match, something that would stand up against the test of 'I can't get out and walk around' that Horizon is shoehorned into because it's a Forza game. Introducing more advanced world interaction mechanics might compromise the core gameplay loop and harm pacing of the narrative Stories.

I didn't say there needed to be an immersive narrative and I did not say "get out and walk around" was the solution. I said they need to find a way to make a more immersive world, which is pretty much what you said they need to do also:

To me, Horizon should pick up the slack by making maps more enjoyable to look at and lose yourself in, rather than elevating the story to the level of your average open world sandbox game, and Japan does that in spades.

I mean, that's the whole ballgame. I don't understand the last part of your post though. You're saying they should pick up the slack, but then you said the new map is already doing it. From what I've watched (as PS player, I haven't played it), the Japan map is better than some of the others (also evidenced by posters here) but it isn't meaningfully deeper.

People have been modding in various vehicles into the game and uploading liveries with those cars, thumbnail stays as the modded car but downloading the livery just results in a livery applied to the actual model in game (in that case it was just a pure gray Reliant Supervan III).

Also, first post on GTPlanet after being an anonymous reader for 6 1/2 years or so, so... hello
