There's something here for everyone, The community is mostly long time players who are sweaty and toxic so i avoid the pvp but that's fine, there's plenty more. I don't mind buying DLC's (think of it similar to an MMO) but there are some pretty wild things they do to try and get money from you which is a bit unfortunate. having played in year one i don't even mind that they removed that stuff because i understand the reasoning, but i understand why people might have a problem with it. the aforementioned community will tell you never to play it and that they hate it so much but if you just play normally and don't force yourself to play and devote your life to it you'll have fun i'm sure.
Not much to like here, atmosphere was ok. There's no actual fun/relaxation in the driving (it's actually slghtly infuriating) it just involves going a few metres slowly, avoiding obstacles, until you reach the next building/abandoned car to loot and then fast travelling to the next area of procedurally generated buildings that are copy pasted again. In theory if you wanted to avoid this tedium there are a good range of difficulty settings to remove damage, fuel etc (This removes your ability to unlock achievements if you care about that) but i believe you still have to loot for parts. Otherwise, the controls are strange but i think you can get used to it, can't comment on the story as i didn't stick with it for long but the voice acting seemed ok and finally, there are tons of bugs but i don't usually let it effect my ratings in the hopes they will be fixed over time as it is a new game.
Just add a difficulty slider... I tried playing solo with some cheats after everyone else had given up and it really just gets more and more stale, aside from smashing your head against the wall 59 times to complete one mission because you lose all your hours at death, the mission just get longer and more repetitive. Maybe they thought the "great atmosphere" (It wore off after the tutorial) wouldn't be the same without the threat of losing all your hours because of one mistake, but i believe that can be left up to the player(s)
