I’ve been playing Wheel World. It’s silly hipster fun, but I’d rather get on my real bike and ride. Where are the cycling equivalents of Crazy Taxi or Road Rash?
I mean you could say the same about any current AAA game. A Zwift setup including the bike, trainer and device to run it on can easily be cheaper than a modern gaming rig.
Sure, but a modern gaming rig can play more than one thing. I get that it’s an enthusiast thing, and it’s pretty cool, but you REALLY need to know that’s what you wanna do/play at those prices.
Technically you can “play” other things too (there are competitors that offer the similar experiences), including GTA. But nobody is Zwifting for the gameplay anyway. It’s not really a game and just something to make indoor cycling in the off season a little bit less dull. Personally I don’t think it’s worth the subscription and would rather just watch a movie.
Zwift is very popular. But you have to do the cycling yourself
Just looked at their website. Is this “game” solely populated by rich people?

All competitive cycling is
I’ll give you that.
