Project CARS 2 actually is a real improvement in almost every aspect and does nothing worse than the first one. I actually reviewed it and still have to add a multiplayer rating.
Saleswise it has a ton of problems though:
1. Project CARS disappointed on consoles in many ways. Ad in the time Slightly Mad needed to get it patched into a good game.
2. Neither the publicity of crowdfunding the first one had nor the Nintendo hype nor anything else of the PR that Project CARS had.
3. There are other racing games on the market as well as coming within the next weeks. Forza 7 and GT Sport might be the big guns, but there's Dirt and WRC as well as Assetto Corsa or, actually, Project CARS.
4. Most people play racing games with a controller, the first one had a really shitty preset and was far from a Forza or GT with controller even with the best possible settings. Project CARS 2 is way better playable with standard controller though, even if Forza and GT are still ahead here.
5. it's not the friendliest game if playing online. The host can force things like manual transmission, no traction control and way more.
Benefits are do your career as you want, with realistic settings or short and rulefree races, nice weather simulations for all seasons and a great list of racing tracks.
