Infuriating game to play. The rival cars constantly cockblock you in turns --unlike in previous games, their behavior will mimick the characteristics of the cars, such as drifting in turns-- which makes it so if you're close to one of them, you have a 50/50 chance of unavoidably bumping into them and having your lap ruined. They also can bump you from behind which destabilizes your car handling. In addition, the difficulty is balanced like shit (I played in normal and hard difficulties), if your first lap is not perfect, you won't have a chance to win the race even if the following laps are great. So you'll have to retry a lot to get a good first lap, which in turn it feels like RNG-dependent because you don't know if you'll get unlucky with the rivals. That shit ruined my enjoyment of the game. A shame because the courses are very stylistic and I liked to customize my cars' liveries (like in Rage Racer). RRT4 remains the last great RR.
