I don't even understand why a game like this needs a yearly release. Farming doesn't evolve that quickly. I mean, the devs of the Trucking Sim games don't need to release a new game every year, because trucking doesn't evolve they quickly, either. So what's their excuse, other than pure greed?

It's not a yearly release. The last one was Farming Simulator 22, so it's been three years. Before that it was 19, another 3 years.

I know it's easy to hate on Farm Sim but yearly cash-grab releases is not one of them.

I pirated it a few years back, played for an hour, got bored and uninstalled.

If it's not a yearly release, then why label it as such? Just call it Farming Sim 9.

It's just the year of release or thereabouts. Lots of software does this, even without yearly release. Microsoft Office did it, for example. But it's actually pretty common with simulation games. Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024. Car Mechanic Simulator 2021. Trainz Railroad Simulator 2022.

It's strange that EA has poisoned our minds about putting the year in the title from their obvious yearly slop.

Also, I don't blame you for not liking the game. It's not for everyone. Not like I'm going to be upset by that XD
