This IS a farming game...but not related to HM/SoS, so I guess it belongs here.
I haven't played any of these games yet, because when I look it up, I find the Farming Simulator series confusing because it claims to be very deep and immersive, and yet, all I can get out of what I see from screenshots on websites is that you drive tractors a lot. It almost seems to be a game more about farm equipment than the farming itself, but none of the info I've found is very in depth.
Also, HM/SoS has long been a series that has more female fans than male, but as far as I can tell, Farming Simulator seems to appeal more to men. If so, I probably won't like it, as I tend to fit comfortably within the gender average on this one topic (not so much on some others, but this one, for sure.) and if it really is more about driving large tractors around, I'm going to hate it. And I can just walk over to my parents' place and drive an ACTUAL huge tractor, if I want to, so...meh. I'm very much not into machinery.
Does anyone play this series? With it claiming to be 'open world' and 'deep and immersive', it SOUNDS worth playing, but it isn't cheap so I don't want to just take my chances, and though it SOUNDS good, it LOOKS pretty bad (bad as in not to my tastes.) I don't know why I can't get enough information to form an opinion on my own, but somehow...I just can't.
