Probably not the right answer, but buy VR2.
I hadn't played GT7 for a couple of months and was more into ACC when VR2 landed last Feb.
Pretty much played GT7 every day for months after, and still my go to game now (although have less time to play games at present, but the will likely change imminently as keep arguing with my g/f I've been with for 4 or 5 months
).
Not cheap option of course. But it elevates immersion, experience and overall enjoyment... love, for it by several notches IMO.
Particularly with decent wheel (yes, more money
) Fanatec in my case and headphones.
Just happy to do random (non custom in my case as too lazy
) races over and over in different cars, different tunes, particularly on Nordschleiffe. Used to HATE that circuit, but now I probably spend 75% of time on it. So much easier to judge bends and turns in vr2.
Dont particularly care about 'chase the rabbit' as its so good just being in vr and enjoying driving, atmosphere, feeling...
I'm basically busy doing nothing. Lack of new events dont overly bother me. As I say happy just using different cars, tunes, on small set of races over and over.
Simply phenomenal imo.
