Considering I have 827 games on Steam, the figure of $1620.26 doesn't seem too bad. Now I've probably bought a load more bundles bumping that up, but there's no convenient way to figure out how much that adds (let's round to $2000). I've had the account 18 years, 9 months.
I’ve played both games for years. There were mod, but half of them are shitty or don’t work. One I tried just gave me black textures. Unless there’s some paid marketplace I don’t know about, the mod options for drivable cars are shitty.
yeah other countries arent xenophobic at all they love minorities, as a minority im glad I live in california, I dont hear great things about elsewhere, family from europe are always suprised by the diversity
Watch Lemmy turn one of the few apolitical posts about something American into something political in 3… 2… 1…
Politics is important but sometimes I just want to play a video game without someone turning the conversation to politics when that wasn’t the topic at hand at all. I’m super angry about all the things my country is doing now too, but I also sometimes want to enjoy what I have left instead of being constantly stressed about it and bringing up the horrors happening at every opportunity—especially with just a comment about if a truck driving sim that seems to be mostly just about driving will suddenly implement something political and unpleasant (when we know they probably will not, that’s not the vibe they are going for) and no links to taking action. (Here are a few, albeit aimed at Americans.

On the other hand, people have to vent sometimes and I guess I need to build up tolerance and a thicker skin to that, even when it shows up in a place marked Games and not US Politics.
Eh, to each their own, to me it wasn’t funny at all. Not in a this is offensive way, I can appreciate dark humor, but the impression I personally came away with was “annoying snarky comment” and less “incisive, witty, funny and topical joke”. Of course, my impression is probably extremely colored by my feeling it was just barely on-topic and a conversation hijack away from American Truck Simulator to American Politics, but I also have seen American politics comments that I found funny and this wasn’t one of them. Glad you enjoyed at least, as well as the other people who upvoted, nice to see people getting value out of it where I couldn’t.
Definitely not. Test Drive Unlimited 2 leaps to mind, which while it certainly had racing events and racing related content in it, you could also just drive around doing nothing in particular as much as you wanted.
There are several other racing oriented games that nevertheless had open worlds and you’re never actually forced to race anybody in any of them, albeit usually at the expense of sacrificing any game progression and thus having a rather limited vehicle selection. Need For Speed Underground 2 and Forza Horizon, for instance.
The same is true for almost any open world game with vehicles. Casually driving a car in GTA while obeying the traffic rules has been a thing from the very beginning.
Several of the teasers showed off a WIP Crown Vic. As a truck driver IRL that owns a Mercury Grand Marquis, it feels like this update is made just for me!
We’d get a pretty good game format OS—if the players could agree to come together—and then licence that out. Just like we do with Blu-ray, just like we do with the compact disk—and let people compete on content.
I know this is the most Lemmy comment it’s possible to make, but oh, if only there were an OS that already exists that you could run games on and that didn’t even need licencing out!
