User blog:HV2308/The point of no return

One of the most fascinating aspects of RR3 is that somewhere in there, it has a defining moment. A switch is turned. Pass that and things change ...

Let me explain:

In the beginning you have 0 cars. You are thrilled to bits when you get your first one, your second one ... The Silvia. The Focus ... whooppeeeee! Sure there are 200 other cars, but you are satisfied with what you have.

Fast forward a few years, and you have (in my case) 189 out of 204 cars. You HAVE to do each special event to keep up. You HAVE to play each day. No holiday if there is no wifi. Playing when you really don't have the time or really should be getting some sleep or enjoying the lovely weather outside. Doing stuff with your loved ones or friends ...

'''So ... somewhere, something's changed.'''

You've gone from being happy with what you had to being frustrated by what you don't have. Or at least feeling the unresistable urge of not wanting to miss a chance to get a "free" car. Not daring to miss out on a special event.

There must be a point in between when this change took place. But where?

Does playing longer make you greedy? Is it the amount of cars you have? from just adding one after the other to your garage to wanting to have more, more, more ... all of them, all of them, all of them?

Where is the point of no return?

Because I would advise players to hit the brakes JUST before you pass that point ... ;-)

Or can you go in the other direction? Is there a return after all? Can you go from wanting it all back to passing up on a lot of cars, regardless if you can win them or not. Only go for the ones you like and ignoring the others.

Fill me in on that secret - PLEASE!
