Oh no, you went an used the word 'simcade', I hate everything about that word, especially the derogotory way it is used, you even do it. I don't think anyone at CM said it was going to be more realistc than DR, certainly no one has said it is more realist than RBR, as you say it's a dirt sequel, it should be looked that way.

I have no wheel issues, I play mostly Rally X on Dirt 4 and other than being a bit easy it is pretty good.

Now I am no Dirt 4 nuthugger, I actually prefer Dirt rally and I play iRacing over all other racing games, Rallying is not my thing.

For me simcade is not something bad at all. For sure there is some gamers that really don´t like the idea that they play games at an adult age and that gaming is non serious so they will jump down hard on anything that can´t be called simulating real life.

But there need to be something to distinguish them from pure arcade titles like outrun and Ridge racer. And Arcade also don´t mean anything bad to me at all either.

I knew what I was getting but some is having the idea it´s a follow up to Dirt Rally. I went a bit far calling Dirt 4 pure arcade though it´s simcade for sure. I am fine with the controls that bit feels better then Dirt rally however there is a steering aid or rather a physics aid that have magnetic rails on the road keeping the car in so it feels like I am not in control of the car in Dirt 4 which is a bit frustrating. I don´t mind doing big crashes if it´s my own fault :)

Dirt 4 is different in many ways to Dirt rally. over all Dirt rally is the better game but there is some things which Dirt 4 for eg is better at like feeling the weight of the cars.in Dirt rally they are like aeroplanes.very light.Dirt 4 needs some tweaking but im sure the devs will fix this in new patches to come.
