Are there a lot of cinematics and cutscenes? I tried forza horizon as i think ot was the most popular game at the time and i just wanted to get up and walk away from the computer every time theres like a 30 second cutscene explaining the story and i just wanna drive the damn car in a race!

    I'm playing FH4 atm and I feel that! The combination of NPCs always talking, the UI being locked while they do and the fact you can't lower the speech volume below 1/10 is pretty fucking annoying.

    I think FH5 was a bit better in that regard but it's been a while so I may be mis-remembering.

    There isn't any real story beyond "you're starting a race team, good luck" - it's completely focused on gameplay. The only "cutscenes" in the game are short videos explaining certain event types but they only show up once or can be skipped (24H Le Mans).
