It’s true it’s an open world “simcade” racer, but there’s definitely a more traditional part to it, and that’s the line you follow when you take the festival route, so just stick to that and stick with it. you within the regular storyline, and you complete the different objectives in the predetermined order.
Personally, I like that this is not necessary. Just drive around, or do individual races or challenges and unlock new parts. I’m also very curious to see what additional DLC is coming. I’m also still having fun with the Hot Wheels DLC in Forza Horizon 3…
By the way, I think you can also lower the difficulty of challenges, then you will usually be linked earlier to other average or novice players, and it is already a bit better to win them or at least finish higher.
