@LukeAlmighty Come join #fvc, it's all about avoiding modern shit. Mostly FOSS, though I do want to get Din's Curse going. You can just buy it direct from dev's website!

@Zerglingman @alyx
I just decided that I want to buy Forza 4.
There are 3 editions. What do they offer? I don't know. Will buying the most expansive one contain additional content, or are these a "skip the game" DLCs? I don't know. I don't want to spend next 4 hours looking up forums to lean, what downloadable content is in each version. New maps and events sound good, but do the car packs contain cars I could have earned IN THE GAME? Or even worse, will owning these cars ruin the game? It did happen to me before many times, that DLC that I bought had completelly ruined the early game balance.

@LukeAlmighty @alyx Din's Curse has one expansion, Demon War. It's an expansion, so it depends on the base game. It's installed as a patch, basically.
And it's like $25 for the two of them.

Just pirate it tbh.
@alyx @LukeAlmighty Oh yeah AND Din's Curse has a demo. You get capped at level 6 in it (takes like 20min to get there). Once you buy the game you just pick up where you left off.

@Zerglingman @LukeAlmighty
>guy has issue with game A
>offer him a different game from a completely different genre
Sounds reasonable.

@alyx @LukeAlmighty My point is that if you want games to be great again, focus on great games. Stop giving money to the (((machine))).

@Zerglingman @LukeAlmighty
Then recommend he buys the old Assetto Corsa, and get more modded cars and tracks than he can count. + he gets to play a decent racing sim.
The Ultimate Edition is on sale now for 8€.

@Zerglingman @LukeAlmighty
Unfortunately no. Unless you go the seafaring route. There is a slight downside that the community launcher used for modding was build around assuming Steam, and you need to change a setting for it to work.

@alyx @LukeAlmighty As in, change a setting for it to work without Steam? That's pretty fine. I'm guessing the game is too old for the original devs to still be around, which is why there is no direct purchase?

@Zerglingman @LukeAlmighty
The devs are still around, working on the successor: Assetto Corsa Competizione. But this one has less mod support, and the focus is less on car & track diversity, and more at being an ultimate racing sim for GT3 category.
