≠ Its own twist: open world exploration, exploration and discovery and visual first person, while skipping puzzle design

A GT3-only simulator rather than a broad racing game: tyre temperatures, evolving track conditions and force feedback that real drivers single out as the most communicative available. The narrowness is the trade — the base roster is small enough that most players end up buying DLC, and the public lobbies are policed by a safety rating that punishes you for being crashed into.

Motorsport by its very nature is dangerous. DiRT 4 is all about embracing that danger. It’s about the thrill, exhilaration and adrenaline that is absolutely vital to off-road racing. And more than that, it’s about loving that feeling. It’s about pushing flat out next to a sheer cliff drop.
