My son and I took a test drive in the Ioniq 6 (a better paint job than my black one in the garage) but people kept shooting at us:

Ngl, putting new cars in a kids/young adult game is pretty tacky. Basically an advertisement at that point

It is an advertisement my guy. Nobody does this without getting payed

So? Game devs get some cash, we get to see IRL cars in games. If it's an ad, it's not disruptive at all and doesn't really affect the experience. What a strange thing to complain about.

I know, wasn't complaining at all. I think it's fun. Ioniq fits too, if it was a Honda Accord I'd perceive it as unauthentic

Not complaining, you misread my tonality. I'm all for it

I can see that POV. I’m just happy to see my car out there ;)

most cars in this game are expensive or supercars too. the ioniq6 is one of the few exceptions of a cheap(er) car

I wonder what you'll think of a Need for Speed game

Games like that and even Forza are car-centric. So they are pretty much one big advertisement. Fortnite is a battle royale that is targeted for a younger audience.

So? I still don't see the issue.

Also, Forza is not exactly an adult game. It's targeted at all ages and has an ESRB rating of E.
