But Forza has its place and after you tune the cars and set the proper gear ratios to match real life some cars feel pretty close. AWD cars seem a bit off to me.
It's the absolute lack of any steering feedback that kills it for me. When you're playing iracing, the steering wheel is constantly dancing in your hands over all the imperfections in the track surface. When I take a curb aggressively during a turn, it bucks and shakes the chair, which is amazing. It's that sweaty palmed realism, the insane noises and very very good multi-class racing. Forza has no steering feel (I play with a controller anyway but I did have a wheel once) and it's not the only one. I played project cars and it had the same curious lack of feel. Only Assetto and iracing had it out of all the sims and games I tried.
