In my opinion, anyone who doesn't know the Farming Simulator is missing out on a lot.
I would like to introduce you to the two different perspectives here:
1. Variant: Player
As a player, you have the opportunity to immerse yourself in the world of virtual farming with the base game and try out the complex processes of real farming. Who has the opportunity to do that in real life?
You can either play the game just for fun to relax after a hard day at work, or as an ultra-realistic player you can seek the challenge of building your own empire. There are also many different mods available to players. And here we come to variant 2.
2. Variant: Modder / Mapper
As a modder or mapper, you can let off steam creatively and create new maps, vehicles or functions that expand the base game and enhance the gaming experience.
Whether you are a player, mapper or modder, there is one thing you should definitely keep in mind. Once you have immersed yourself in the world of gaming, you won't be able to let it go so quickly. You will accumulate several hours of playing time. I don't regret a second of it so far.
