I criticised your favourite game, so it must not be for me.

I have played 4 of the Farming Sim games, and the last 3 have had hardly any improvements to the sim, other than some graphics and gameplay taken from mods. There's so much they could add to the simulation, but they don't and 3 years is quite a long time to iterate.

It's not my favorite game but your post was so egregiously wrong I thought you must have known nothing about the game itself and just made bad assumptions.

3 years is quite a long time to iterate.

I cannot even shape my head around your comment here. In your head one year isn't enough time to make any significant changes to a game but three years is quite a long time?

Anyway, you admitted you were wrong and/or lied and that's enough for me.

Other than the yearly part (time flies, my bad), it was all subjective. If you consider fog a meaningful update, then sure, go have fun buddy.

I'll probably wait for a sale.

And yeah, I'm not going to be upset that people don't like the game. It's not even my favorite game. Even I think it's stupid sometimes. But for a relaxing turn my brain off and chill experience, it does that pretty well.

We could argue whether the updates and improvements are worth it, and that's a valid argument, but you admittedly have never purchased it nor will you purchase it. And that's fine. Enjoy something else, buddy :)

Correct, I have not purchased Farming Simulator 25 and probably won't. I might play it on game pass like I did for FS22 in a couple years. I have nothing against the game at its core, I sunk countless hours in to FS17, I just expected there to be actual meaningful (to me) upgrades by now, so it feels like Giants is taking the piss.

Yeah. And if we're being honest, I don't like the Season Pass nonsense. Oh yay, 2 extra tractors and a harvester that probably should've been in the base game.

I think FS19 was my "countless hours" version. I did like the FS22 improvements, but since all my mods didn't work initially it felt like a step backwards.
