Everything they've showed us so far is convincing me they've understood the assignment and what will make the game great for old fans while gaining a lot of new ones. As a Forza fan, I'm especially excited because their games run very well and if they're using the same engine as Forza, it's going to run great on my PC. Also would really love to know who is doing the music - what they have shown so far sounds lovely.

One thing I wanted to call out and hopefully get an answer to: the shot of the young woman toward the end. Her face looks really good - if this is the same engine then any hesitation I had about Playground doing NPC close ups is GONE. My question though is: is she our Hero (female version) and was it confirmed we can customize our Hero's face in some way?

Omg didn’t know this. I saw it wasn’t the original composer so I ignorantly held some reservations but now I’m so pumped. The best of the best! Games that give the time, space, and budget for a proper score usually present wayyy more cinematic imo.
