Any other Farming Simulator players here?

Curious if you're playing on console or PC? I almost bought this over the weekend through Steam and, ironically, forgot about it after going out and mowing my own yard. But this just seems like the kinda mindless game that I could sink hours into as well. Just need a couple people to sell me on it since the concept just seems so basic.

I freakin love mowing yards though so I probably should just go for it.

Love it but be careful with modded maps. I got deep into one and now part of the production chain is glitched out. It's wanting pallets as a part of just about all production chain recipes but they won't accept pallets when I drop them off and also won't let me buy them straight from the production.

So that kinda pissed me off.

Explain this to me like I’m vinegarstokes is this basically FarmVille from Facebook without being laden with abusive micro transaction psychological abuse?

Sounds like something id love to just chill out with? Is it on ps5?

Yeah it's on PS5-- that's where I play. It really is an amazing chill out game. I can accidentally lose hours in a session.

It's weirdly addictive, maybe because it's just so simply peaceful and the progression pulls you forward. You start off with a few fields and a small amount of equipment, do the tasks in front of you, then realize you need to buy one more piece of equipment for the next step. Then you have a little bit of money and want to buy a new piece of land, so do that then knock out some contracts for other farmers and you find yourself with a few more parcels of land. Your operation grows to the point where you need larger equipment, so you wait until you save enough or take out a loan and up your game. Then you decide you want to get into supply chains and production, and that's a whole new piece.

I've done all this and still haven't even gotten into raising animals yet.

I think marital relations is still rumored DLC

I'm more of a Power Washing Simulator guy myself. It's much more polished than Lawnmower Simulator. I have a little over 1000 hours in it now and they just released new content last week.

Where do you put your animal pens at? I've been slowly expanding my empire and wondering what makes the most sense. Do you just pick a field and let that be your spot? I'm on Elmcreek.

When you say crappy soil, is there a soil quality component I still haven't even looked at?
