In a world of twitch shooters and instant gratification, that change of pace is welcome. Results do not come right away, but that’s what makes it rewarding.
#Farming simulator 2017 pc guide simulator
Farming Simulator 17is a title in which you have to play the long game. This isn’t a high-octane fast paced game. There’s a weird sense of calming that comes with it.
Yes, attachments change meaning depending on the task, but it’s the same thing, over and over again. You drive your tractor with its attachment around a circle in your plot of land. Everything you do around your farm is the same. Unfortunately, that doesn’t change any of the gameplay. It leads to a lot of frustrating moments and caused me to go through every menu screen in the game to see what the tutorial decided to skim over. Even with the tutorial, I found myself trying to learn different aspects of the game I never knew existed. There isn’t a lot of communication in that department, and there’s even less handholding. I’m not sure if the game automatically took out loans on my behalf or people were paying me late, but I’d check my bank account every now and then and it would be larger despite being in-between crops.
I made quite a few bad decisions, but somehow I kept making money. Yes, you can accomplish more tasks with the help of a field hand, but there is a balance with how much you should spend to yield any results.
You always have to ask yourself “is it worth it? Can I make enough money with this tool to justify it?” That goes all the way to hiring help as well. There are pros and cons to buying things you didn’t start off with, like a fertilizer attachment or a chainsaw. You have to keep an eye on how much money you’re bringing in, how your livestock is holding up, if you can afford new vehicles, if you can afford help, how quickly your bank account is dropping, if you should lease or buy a vehicle, if you should take out a loan or work your way out of the financial hole you’ll inevitably fall into all that kind of stuff. There is a lot of micromanaging at play here. It’s kind of strange how inept they are compared to the complexity found in the rest of Farming Simulator 2017.
