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.

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 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.

A yearly release would be fine if they actually upgraded the simulation, proper interactable interiors, more realistic crop simulation, better weather, realistic animal simulation (its literally just a menu), etc, etc, etc.

The collectors edition even includes modding tutorials, because they want modders to do their work for them.

All they do every year is upgrade some graphics to bring it in line with games from 2009. It is, as you say, a cash grab.

It’s not the price that is the problem, it’s how iCloud is integrated into the device, in a way Apple don’t allow other cloud services to do. iCloud has access other apps simply do not, so they cannot compete fairly.

Thats fine, but if that is their focus, they should rename it to Competitive Farming or something instead of Farming Simulator.

Its the same game as the last few. They have made no actual gameplay additions, its becoming a lazy scam every year. Adding a reskinned crop isnt new gameplay.

The downside is some shitty far-right service is now getting free publicity.

You are also underestimating how sites like SO really helped a new generation of programmers learn. Anyone could search and learn things, whether to take a serious approach or just for a bit of fun.

It’s an election though, for the person to run your country. You have to put some research into the candidates, not just copy what sign someone else put out in their lawn. This unfortunately wasnt an election where you can just look at policies (one party just had ideas of a policy, and thats a major red flag), there’s a bigger picture of who you are putting in power.

I agree with your points, they all make sense, but even if the democrats had a more aggressive anti-trump campaign, thet still wouldnt have seen it (maybe a tiny bit more likely to tho) or they would have already been indoctrinated into the cult and just ignore it.

Education systems should be teaching simple things like this to kids, everyone should know the importance of an election.

Another issue is people collectively thinking their 1 vote doesnt matter.

I hope you guys can take back your country in 2028.

Yeah, because apparently Americans don’t look at the actual candidate, or listen to what they say. Trump told nothing but lies the whole campaign, just attacking democrats at rallies. He is a narcissistic bigot, a convicted felon. He’s racist, sexist, homophobic, transphobic. He’s a fraudster, a misogynist, he hates democracy, literally said he would be a dictator, among many other extremely undesirable traits you would want in a leader. That’s the entire point people are making while the media are ignoring all that and blaming the democrats for not being as radical.

It’s absolutely insane that he got elected. Anyone with any sort of critical thinking would not even dream of voting for him.

As with most games now, the players are the playtesters.

Gearbox is just going to keep milking RoR, it’s a real shame Hopoo sold it.

They haven’t really addressed the main concerns of the community though, it appears like not much has changed since the initial beta launch.

Mentions lack of mods on consoles in both posts, maybe a console player a bit angry their platform is locked down? Either way, yep, they clearly don’t participate in the mod space much, so should probably spare their opinion on the matter.

Yikes.

Creation Club goes against modding values, which is why people hate it. It’s Bethesda’s attempt at profiting from ‘mods’, they don’t actually give a shit about modders being paid. But honestly, CC shouldn’t even be compared to mods, it’s content Bethesda contracted people for and then they sell it on CC and keep the money.

Nobody is asking for free content from modders, most create mods out of passion and the players enjoy that, they can always open donation links that people can use (I have donated to many mod creators in the past, have you?). The best mods are created this way and without the player freedom, the quality of content would be a lot worse overall or simply not exist.

Yeah, in the far future I can see some uses when it’s really matured, but I still think more specialised robots will be designed instead.

Yeah, but like, you can have robots on rails. Factories are often designed with automation in mind, rather than slapping it on afterwards.

I mean in the far distant future… yeah I agree.

But back to preset times, when robots like these are cheap enough for a small company to buy over hiring someone, then it will be cheap enough to buy custom robots too.
