Apparently playground games is so busy developing their newest game in the franchise that microsoft had to actually outsource the steam port of FH4 to someone completely not capable of doing such things: Sumo Nottingham

You'd think it's just a simple client swap, yet these people menaged to screw up the whole performance of the game.

While the windows store version has ZERO issues with performance or stability, the steam version is a crashing and stuttering mess. I've followed this version for a while, seen many patches deployed throughout the months since release yet clearly no progress has been made into improving that. Even buying this on sale feels like a scam.

If somehow this studio is involved in porting Forza Horizon 5 to steam, please respect your money and do not support disgusting work like this.
