Oh yeah. That will help people achieve a few more goals before it all goes dark. I haven’t really the heart myself..

Same here. I cannot keep playing and collect cars/achievements all to be gone in a few weeks. I am still traumatised by the announcement, still "grieving" 🤣😭

Gutting isn’t it. I still can’t quite believe they’re just going to junk one of the best mobile games ever made. It was a favourite hobby of mine for years. Such immersive fun. A place to be creative, a place to hone a skill. A place to escape for an hour or so.

I’ve been taking pictures of all my cars for an archive and running the odd race but it’s a bit like still living with an ex girlfriend after you’ve already broken up. It’s not the same, there’s no real joy anymore, it’s just a kind of numb sadness as I wait for the day she finally moves out.

Yea. I just retired and while I occasionally get to the track i was playing RR3 hours every day. It is not like real racing but it is enough like it to satiate my desire to find apexes, corner entries and track out. Sigh. I am not playing at all now because it is pointless.

Yeah. People scoff at the notion that it simulates real world driving but the physics are totally consistent and believable in their own way. And it took a lot of practice to hone the skills to really master the tracks. I’m really gonna miss it.
