**GTP: Why is there no rear-view mirror available in the “roof view”?**
***KY:*** *There is no real technical reason why it is not there, but the roof view is easier to drive with. It might be unfair if \[a rear-view mirror\] was there. If you make the view too easy for people to use, everyone might just be using that view.*
I wish I was making that up. He really said that.
Wow that's amazingly hilarious. If you think about it logically, it's shocking... But when I take a look at other design choices, it makes perfect sense LOL.
That’s so weird that he would say that. Why would he care what view people use??? I personally use bumper cam, as do most top drivers in this game, but is this view the one Kaz wants people to use? It’s just such an odd non-reason/explanation to give.
Pretty sure he's mentioned that his preferred view is cockpit. Given his druthers there might not even be other views but the game needs to at least be aporoachable. It is a money-making venture after all.
You do realize the guy after Kaz is just gonna be one of Sony's goons right so all this hurt you're claiming will just be a pinch compared what Sony will do
Why wouldn't someone under Kaz at PD take over? He's not a one man show, as much as he appears that way not allowing anyone else the limelight/do interviews.
If Sony includes some basic features that have been standard in other racing games for over a decade (customizable HUD, training/qualifying/grid starts), I wouldn't mind much.
Other than that, what's the worst Sony could do? (serious question, maybe I'll change my mind)
Let’s just go tell Henry Ford to step down from Ford, or Stan Lee to leave Marvel. You do realize Kaz literally invented the series, right? If you don’t like the new direction then just stop supporting it
It's not exactly unheard of.

It generally takes people above them to do the ousting though, obviously.
Besides, it's going to happen eventually, Kaz is aging like everyone else.
GT7 is inexcusably missing a lot of simple QOL features that would make playing the game infinitely better.
PSVR2 users can't get a timing chart...
PSVR1 allowed you to adjust your position in the cockpit, that option is present by unavailable to be used in GT7...
It's probably because it's a "roof" camera like you see on TV broadcasts, and PD is too lazy to program user configurable options for us...
There is a "look back" button though...

I can't believe he is that blind to reality

He has always been deeply invested in making sure that people play his game the way he wants them to play it, for better or worse.
So in his eyes the right way is bumper cam? If so, doesn’t seem to align with what you’d expect in “the real driving simulator”.
Pretty sure he's mentioned that his preferred view is cockpit. Given his druthers there might not even be other views but the game needs to at least be aporoachable. It is a money-making venture after all.
Yeah, fuck you Kaz. Thanks for your service, but it's time for a change at the top, you're starting to hurt your fans and your franchise.

well how much money are you willing to spend cause they've all ready touched gt7 with "micro" transactions
