Been thinking about buying this while it's on sale. With Forza still likely not until autumn at the earliest, may as well.
I don’t think you will be disappointed. Lots of added content since release too.
Am I correct in assuming the below is not worth an additional $20 for the digital deluxe version?
- 1,500,000 CR (in-game credit)
- Special Toyota GR Yaris
Apparently the sale for this game ended last night, so it was full price when logged on today. Oh well, my backlog is already much too long.
I've honestly been really annoyed that I missed the sale price by a matter of hours. Almost bought it at full price, but figure I can wait for another sale or find a used physical copy (haven't done that in years!). I should probably hold out for Microsoft's rumored January event, maybe we'll be getting the normal bigger "island" type DLC for Horizon soon!
Jesus Christ just buy it. It’s just money. Quit pussyfooting around. It’s a good game and you don’t need the deluxe.
It Takes Almost 300 Days for Gran Turismo 7 Developers to Make One of the Game's Cars
Polyphony Digital CEO and Gran Turismo 7 producer Kazunori Yamauchi shares that it takes almost 300 days to create a car from scratch.

Kazunori Yamauchi, CEO of Polyphony Digital and Producer of Gran Turismo 7, has stated in an interview that it takes nearly 300 days to create one of the game's cars when starting from scratch. Gran Turismo is a series known in part for the attention to detail it pays to each of the cars in its roster, so it would make sense that the timeline to create one in Gran Turismo 7 would be extensive, even if not many would expect it to be almost a year.
Speaking to Impress, Kazunori Yamauchi has stated that it takes roughly 270 days to create one of Gran Turismo 7's cars from scratch, and the current output should be around 60 cars per year. He also stated that while he acknowledges getting requests for the return of vehicles like the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution 4, because of the lengthy process it takes to create a car and limited resources at Polyphony, he asks for fans to understand if they have not. Something else he admitted to is the gap between what fans want versus what he imagines, meaning that even if he is aware of fan expectations, there is no guarantee that fan favorites will arrive in future content updates for Gran Turismo 7.
Although Gran Turismo recently broke a sales milestone, having sold about 90 million copies since the series debuted, Yamauchi could potentially be referring to what the staff of Polyphony Digital can reasonably do since the studio has roughly 200 employees working there. If the goal is to create 60 cars a year while one takes 270 days, assumptions can be made that the developers have to balance creating cars that fit Polyphony Digital's vision with the ones fans have requested.
Sounds like they need to hire more people. I think the last time they mentioned dev length for a car was three to four months.It Takes Almost 300 Days for Gran Turismo 7 Developers to Make One of the Game's Cars

Do they have only one person working on each car?
Do they outsource their work to other PlayStation support teams? There’s like two in California and at least one more in Europe.
Side question, what’s it like for their environmental devs? I doubt it takes them almost a year to make a tree.
Last time they said it was 3 months and they outsource to India. That was just a couple years ago.
I guess. From 2020:
Gran Turismo Car Models Now Made in Three Months, Outsourced to India
Back in August 2018, we brought you some rather interesting information on the inner workings of the Gran Turismo series: after two decades of almost exclusive in-house development, Polyphony Digital had decided to bring in some external talent by outsourcing some of its vehicle modeling tasks. W

Game is on sale again via the PS Store, 43% off
Me too. A couple weeks ago I was ready to buy it, now I'm feeling kinda overwhelmed with games I'm actively playing and enjoying. Then again, with Forza likely being several months away, maybe it's worth it. Sale lasts until mid-February, so no immediate rush to buy it now.
