🎮 Forza Horizon 4 – Quiet Roads, Still Golden
I came back to Forza Horizon 4 recently, and it still feels like a quiet kind of magic.
The roads through the UK countryside—especially at golden hour—hit differently.
There’s something calming about drifting through autumn leaves or cruising past stone walls in a Porsche 911 GT3 Touring,
knowing the game isn’t asking anything of me except to enjoy the drive.
The seasonal system still impresses me. It’s not just a visual gimmick—it changes how the world feels.
Winter makes the roads slick and reflective, spring brings out the mud and bloom, and summer is just… open.
I love how the game doesn’t rush me. I can spend an hour tuning a car, taking photos, or just driving with no destination.
It’s not perfect. The menus are a bit bloated, and the online elements sometimes feel like noise.
But when I’m alone on a quiet road, with the radio off and the sun setting behind the hills,
it becomes more than a game. It becomes a space.
