First, I’m wealthy and retired, my parents RIP would have just laughed at my silly game addiction. It it’s my addiction because I love the game engine and the fact it’s more “real” and no pew pew lasers.

The point is, the game I love is becoming sooooo kind numnbingly boring that I’d rather pay hard cash than suffer to finish another lt series so I can get a car at a discount. I’m shooting for the 100% club is the answer to why.

Fm/ea are no different from anyone else that they want their money. But these guys in this game are inappropriately greedy, it’s as if they are in a room laughing during every update saying, you won’t believe what these idiots will suffer to play. Omg let’s make it worse every time, watch they’ll still play! This latest community challenge is an utter joke. Wrong car (shouldna been the Chiron) and the rewards are, as per usual, insultingly Low!

Cars to farm: do you hear yourself? Hi, I’m sooo broke,that I gotta okay endless mind numbing laps of the same track same car zero challenge for hours in order to save a few $ lol broke much? The current gold cost in the game, assuming 100% ownership, 100% upgrade, and no spending of gold on skips or Customization (if you FU the cars, you get the Customizations, so, let's not factor that in), is 153,628.

In the US, the "Cheapest" gold pack is $99.99 for a 1,019 pack. That means, if you don't factor in that you will actually be earning as you play the game, it would cost $15,074.84... for a mobile game.

I have no issue with people earning a living, especially if they are putting out a good product, but $15,074.84?

Gran Turismo Sport comes out this week. That set up, pretty much top of the line in every way, would cost you $4,660, before sales tax. That is less than a third the cost of the cost of Real Racing 3, and the online leagues are actually monitored, so you can actually compete fairly in them.
 * The Limited Edition of the game is about $60 US.
 * A 1TB Playstation 4 Pro goes for $400.
 * A Thrustmaster T-GT - PlayStation Wheel is about $800
 * A Thrustmaster TH8A Add-On Gearbox Shifter for PC, PS3, PS4 and Xbox One is about $150
 * A PlayStation VR Launch Bundle is about $450
 * A Next Level Racing GTultimate v2 Simulator Cockpit is about $800
 * Let's budget in $2,000 for 3 4K-Monitors, so you get side views as well as head on.

Not enough?
 * ProjectCARS 2 Deluxe for PS4 is another $90, but you would have no additional costs as everything above would work with it.
 * Dirt 4 for PS4 is about $60
 * WRC 7 for PS4 is $50
 * Forza Motorsports 7 Ultimate is $100; however now you need an XBoxOne or a PC
 * Xbox One S 1TB Console - Forza Horizon 3 Bundle is about $300
 * Thrustmaster VG TMX PRO Racing Wheel - Xbox One is $250
 * Oculus Rift is around $400

So for $5910 you could have all of that, and still have about $9,565 left over... or you could pay for 100% on Real Racing 3.
