Save Euro Truck Simulator 2
Sacha Weakland
With an overwhelmingly positive review score on Steam, and over five million copies sold on the platform, Euro Truck Simulator 2 makes the case as the best simulation game period. For the unaware, no this is not a meme, but instead a surprise masterpiece from developers SCS Software that any gamer can find enjoyment in.
It's one of those things that you never knew you wanted until it just came around one day and there it was. While other simulators are goofy or uninteresting, Euro Truck Simulator 2 takes the genre to heights never imagined. It's not for everyone though, so here are ten reasons to buy it or save your money.
That said, just as driving for long distances on highways in real life can prove to be a bit of a drone at times, the same can happen here. You either hit that zen-like state where you're watching out for dangerous drivers and staying on your p's and q's. Or you're falling asleep at the wheel and dying.
The funny thing about Euro Truck Simulator 2 is that you can achieve this state of flow quite easy. It's almost like meditation in the sense that it's a very simple activity once you get the hang on things.
Problem is, that most PC gamers despise controllers, unless they're big into racing games or are console gaming normies. Still, a Xbox or PS4 controller won't break the bank in 2020, but if you're looking for the most optimal way to play the game then look into a steering wheel.
Essentially you want something very light in terms of narrative, that also doesn't have it's own soundtrack of phenomenal music (This is why Animal Crossing would be a terrible choice to listen to a podcast through). Euro Truck Simulator 2 is the perfect game for this kind of experience as you'll be chugging through hours of Joe Rogan and Pink Floyd albums in no time.
Entering the new decade, building a really good computer is more inexpensive than it's ever been. That said, it's still not a cheap hobby by any stretch of the means, especially if you want to take your rig to the next level and run games at their maximum capacity (which is very much worth it when you look at games like Red Dead Redemption 2 or Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice). Running Euro Truck Simulator 2 will not be a problem for anyone with an average rig, but getting the full potential is going to cost you. And you might be thinking is it even worth it for a game like this, well, if immersion is your thing than yes, very much yes.
