If DLC and player garage stay server dependent long-term user access is an uphill battle. I would be okay with the game having larger file size just to access I buy Premiums and all DLC I want access at end of life for the game.
Do you really think you’ll be playing this in 20 years???
Its been getting better with updates. I just think making content onllne only contradicts the idea of DownLoadable Content and long term access cars in FM3, FM4, FH1&2 I know are inaccessible because DLC outside of expansions needs online drm.
I still play my disc copies of gran Turismo 1&2 on PlayStation with wheel and pedals.
