Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Forza Horizon 6 expectations and the price of sim racing - Traxion Control Podcast
Q: What is your stance on the pricing models for sim racing titles?
There is no single right answer; most experts favor a hybrid approach combining a base purchase with DLCs or season passes, while trying to balance licensing costs, online infrastructure, and accessibility for players.
Assetto Corsa EVO interview - Career, Free-Roam and Mods Explained
Q: Is the free roam in EVO still in development?
Yes, free roam is being improved and is not in danger due to the recent game economy changes.
Assetto Corsa EVO interview - Career, Free-Roam and Mods Explained
Q: Could you explain what the original vision was for the EVO career mode and the main reasons why you decided to change that and remove that from the plan?
Massaruto discusses that the original vision was ambitious but felt it was taking resources away from the core pillars of Assetto Corsa.
Nacon's Troubles and Community Q&A
Q: Are they games or a sim? What makes one a game and another a sim? Are they the same thing?
Games are fun, while sims are commercial products, and while all simulations are video games, they aren't necessarily the same.
Nacon's Troubles and Community Q&A
Q: Do you think the new Amazon-led Maverick Games game could make a good Forza Horizon substitute, or do they just make their own style entirely?
The game might be very different due to the experienced team from Forza, suggesting it could create its unique style rather than replicate Forza Horizon.
