I just bought Assetto Corsa Competizione yesterday on Steam along with the 24H Nürburgring Pack. I just started playing on Nürburgring, and it took me like a good 5 to 10 minutes just to leave the garage (which is my fault; I accidentally mapped my controller's keys to the "Wheels" option). Then I left the garage and took a lap, which was like 18ish minutes, and I spun on almost every single corner (wasn't a fun experience). Then I took another lap, which was decent; I almost lost the car on two separate occasions but saved it and took the lap time—09:58.937.
Now I can't decide if I should refund the game or not since I think with a controller this game will not be pleasant (I do not own a sim rig or just wheels or anything). I have not really done any sort of "proper" sim racing before (other than playing on simulation settings in F1 25, if that counts) and am new to GT / endurance categories of motorsport in general (I only watch Formula 1).
