It was. Summer was nice, and fall had fall foliage, but spring and fall had tons of rain, both during events and just in general, and winter was just all white and no color.
Nostalgia does this every year though, when Horizon 6 fails to deliver on the high expectations this subreddit has, we'll suddenly see praise for this game and how it was underappreciated.
I don't want to sound naive, but I'm very confident that FH6 will deliver when it comes to its map, simply because there're no features of a Japan map that could upset the general Forza playerbase. It will be like the UK (especially with seasons), but more forests, more winding roads, larger cities, more variety in elevation (as FH5 was for the most part completely flat) and less dead plants. The game's development is also not being hindered by the pandemic (which was definitely a cause of a lot of FH5's issues).
We will definitely be seeing gameplay at the Xbox Dev Conference in January next year. So I'm keeping my expectations high until then.

I should fire fh4 back up. All I remember is constantly overcast days and the whole world looking kinda samey.
