I've bought the game in the recent Steam sale and played it on launch through PC Game Pass before. My biggest complaint are all the loading times and screens, especially when you want to get into a race. Just constant waiting, for hundreds of races.
Back on launch I just eventually did more and more open world stuff, like the XP boards, Danger Signs, Speed Traps, etc. and then quit. I'm kinda doing the same already now on Steam, but I still do want to do more proper races.
It is maddening how little stock game makers put into things like reset times, load times, and so forth. If you build a hard game that expects me to die a lot, don't make we wait 45 seconds after each death to get back into the game. A big component here is the load times you talk about.
