@mrtun3r actually both 2015 and Payback were criticized for their lack of customization. 2015 had cars that constantly had "parts not available" messages in many parts of the cars. Payback has more customization but bit nearly enough to say that was one of the reasons it failed. The reasons why it failed in your eyes is, it was marketed as an action driving game and that didn't land very well. It was also marketed for cop chases, that didn't land either. What also was heavily criticized was the performance customization. There are many ways the game failed and it wasn't because of customization. Both games have a lackluster police presence and emply worlds. Both did not have nearly the amount of customization that people wanted. Both has stories that didn't land very well. To say they failed because of customization is a very very big over statement. The speed part was is UG2 considering you could build cars to go close to 220 MPH, just the feel wasn't there. Its old technology. Again, proof that games can succeed with massive amounts of customization have been proven. You just want a game like the old ones and thats not what the majority wants. Also, you claim customization ruins racing games yet the majority of racing games with customization have succeeded and sold very well. Stop tagging 3DTUNING its a horrible game and its not even the same thing as what we are talking about.
Midnight is far from a bland UG2 clone by the way.

Both Payback and the reboot, '15, had things that were done good/great. They didn't combine and improve on a lot of things, which then made Payback feel a step ahead and 2 steps back because of some anti player satisfaction features. Also the EA loot box, micro-transactions issues and 2015 didn't get that part because it was well before all this.
Now im not feeling hopeful about NFS, before NFS ('15) i had good feelings about it but it still disappointed me in several ways. Then with Payback i wasn't excited much at all and bought it when the Deluxe dropped to $50. Currently i have almost 0 high hopes for NFS and street racing now, but maybe the grind/loot box * will go away in the next one.
Midnight Club is my first street racing game, MC3: Dub Edition. It definitely exceeds many Need for Speed games with some fantastic customization, music, difficulty, and unique features.
Then Midnight Club: Los Angeles with interior customization! Tell me which street racing game had that! MC had things ahead of its time, and details that even someone today would be impressed by. My favorite racing series, period. But MW and NFS: Carbon come up in my list, just not past MC.
