I'm thinking of buying Raceroom on Steam because as in AC it has online competions but...
Before i invest in Raceroom and all of it's DLC's (+140 euros it was i think) is it worth it? I do like AC a lot, is Raceroom comparable like how the cars behave? I read lots of reviews o steam and a lot aren't really positve

You can try it for free, as far as I remember.
For me, it felt a little sterile and kind of artificial.

My main problem with iRacing is that it's not about fun anymore. To stay competitive you have to race every single goddamn day. And when you’re not racing, you better be practicing.
When you're able and willing to do that it's amazing, but definitely not healthy.

Yeah the content thing and lack of mods is a real setback.
Raceroom just feels right doesn't it? The tyres feel like tyres and cars just behave more realistically.
R3E sort of ruined AC physics for me. A good example is even driving at normal road speeds in AC you are sliding about on slicks. Slicks should stick and stick until they violently snap loose then aggressively grab again. Not just constantly be in a state of 0-100% slide depending on level of steering input. Plus the FFB feels sort of weird in comparison. But AC still feels like home and has a good community here. I also like the better known tracks and mod tracks.

The feeling depends on what you drive, system specs, wheel type etc. For me Project Cars 2 is the best simulation of driving. When I get back to AC it`s alot easier to drive and get fast lap times. FFB is about the same for me, very informative and intuitive.
Now R3E has the best audio IMO yet FFB is the least...erm...feedback like, just doesn`t do it for me. But it does have cars and classes that make it worthwhile.
Whether any of them is the most realistic I don`t know. One thing I can say, the same cars drive and feel quite different.
