GT was one of my fave game franchises ever, but ever since the jump to the HD era the 3 releases have disappointed in one way or another. GT5 took way too long to develop, the ill timed release of GT6 a week after the launch of PS4, to the half assed GT Sport.
Things take way too much time, and when released it just isn't cutting edge anymore. I think all of GT's problems can be solved, if PD was a way bigger studio, last I heard Turn10 was twice as big as PD. For a franchise that has been selling on average 10M a game, they need the appropriate studio size.
They can call GTS whatever they want, but an important online compenent shouldn't be a reason to make the game devoid of content and axe the traditional career mode, after 4 years in development they had enough time to give us the complete package.
Suggestions:
-make a real GT7
-make an online focused, GaaS minded, open world GT a la Fohza Horizon and call it GT Sport. More arcadey, 30fps, gfx a la Driveclub, service game: every year new seasons
