Ok, this is getting me excited. Completely forgot about the speed cameras and jumps in Paradise and recall liking that aspect.

I’ll admit Japan is what got me looking, but it’s sounding like something I might actually really enjoy.

I played 3-6 hours when I had FH5 on GamePass, and it was a LOT of fun. I personally did not find it very engaging, though, so I didn’t stick with it

I think this is probably my main concern. I’ll get it, enjoy it for a few hours and get bored. Hopefully the story or progression is engaging enough to keep my interest. Because just driving around I know would get boring fairly quickly.

I thought so too for a long time. Had to figure it out for actual budget though. Tailscale makes that aspect pretty simple. Still probably too complex for your average user, but if you’re setting up self hosted apps you should be able to figure it out.
