    Hah, I hadn’t even remembered the self-created obstacle I have, that I’m trying to stop buying anything from the US-based Steam and buy all new games from (Polish?) GOG instead.

    And Forza Horizon is not available there.

    But, I’ll mention here under this post that my brother gave me a good recommendation: The Flatout series. Flatout 2 is available on GOG, and looks like something I’ll surely be playing a salary day or two! I already tried Flatout 4, (or: “Fl4tout” 🤣), which ran as a very beatiful slideshow on my computer. Flatout 2 might be what I’m looking for.

    Oh, and I do need to give props to Screamer 2, another game I used to play as a child! It has very similar track scenery design to NFS II, although I do like that of NFS II better. It has secret passages, after all! What is a realistic racing game with 100% real cars if it has not shortcuts, enabling you to comfortably use your McLaren F1 car to caress sand roads going through woods?

    I think the game style I am after should probably be called kitsch racing game.
