It sounds like Polyphony Digital has plans to rebalance the game’s economy as it adds additional events and content, but obviously it can’t outline its entire roadmap right now: “We will in time let you know the update plans for additional content, additional race events, and additional features that will constructively resolve this.

I want to make Gran Turismo 7 a game in which you can enjoy a variety of cars lots of different ways, and if possible would like to try to avoid a situation where a player must mechanically keep replaying certain events over and over again.”Ī patch this week reduced the pay-out of popular “farming” spots by as much as half, potentially pushing players towards controversial microtransactions to top up their currency.

Original Story: The reception to Gran Turismo 7 was overwhelmingly positive up until this week, but a series of unforced errors have prompted the reputation of the simulation racer to plummet.

Update: Gran Turismo 7 has achieved the unfortunate accolade of having the lowest Metacritic user score in Sony exclusive history.
