I'm just not interested in LFS anymore even if it is cheaper and rFactor's crap. So regarding the sims, and ignoring the money side of it, iRacing just has a more complete package imho.
It doesnt have the same independently organized league atmosphere that LFS has but that's not very important to me.
Sure, there's plenty of flaws. But the flaws within LFS and rFactor are much more glaring than iRacing atm and iRacing is currently the only sim that is moving forward. Maybe not necessarily in the direction that some may want...but it's atleast moving. Which is more than I can say for LFS and rF.
rFactor 2 with it's dynamic weather feature might actually turn out to be pretty good and I'd gladly drop my iRacing subscription if rFactor 2 turns out to have a more complete package or if LFS ever gets out of this deadlock it's in right now. But atm.
Out of LFS, rFactor, and iRacing. I would much prefer to stay in iRacing if I have the money to pay for it and i do atm
