i played the Lego DCL for Forza Horizon 4 today. I got pretty far in it and have done most of the races, story missions, etc. . .
First of all, I was wrong about Age of Empires Def. Ed. coming to Xbox Game Pass. It's rumored to be coming to Game Pass for PC only. Age of Empires II is firmly announced for PC Game Pass though. Neither is coming to consoles it seems. Rats! One day I'll be able to upgrade my PC and play them, one day.
As for Lego Forza, it's real good, even though I don't get to actually build my own buildings from the pieces I get from doing things. The houses are dropped in by helicopter fully made. Nuts. But the design of the Lego area in FH4 is fantasti, lots to do and lots of interesting terrain to bump and jump over as lego pieces fly everywhere. I'm digging it. I'm not going for achievements. I'm not even going to look at the list. I'm just doing what I like, which is running through every new race to see how they play.
Finally, I've installed Bioshock 2 and Infinite so I can play the DLC I never got to before. When I'm done with Forza, I'm going to do that.
Lego Forza sounds so cool. I hope more games do more Lego crossovers. A lot of potential.
I'd say the environment in this lego DLC for Forza is the most fun in the game. I guess the lego influence made them make some higher jumps and better things to crash into.
That's one way to get me to want to play a Forza game, put LEGOs in it.
I have four lego cars now. You start with one and have to unlock or find the others. Other than that, you can drive any normal car in the lego environment. I only wish I could actually build the stuff you win for your house. I wish I could fly the lego helicopter too.
I'm with Cary here.
