This is by far the best Farming Simulator yet. I’m playing it on medium settings with an i7-8700k and a GTX 1080ti, and it runs really smoothly with no FPS drops or stutters. The graphics are great, the landscapes look amazing, and the weather effects really add to the realism. The gameplay feels more refined overall, with smoother controls and even small details like the mud ruts from your equipment looking better. The new AI worker system and the more detailed financial system make managing your experince more engaging and rewarding, like dopamine on speed dial.



My first day playing was a really solid experience. Here’s what I liked and didn’t like.

Pros:

Improved AI Workers: The AI has been significantly upgraded, making it easier to manage.


New Features: There’s a lot of new content like new crops, new machinery, and more ways to customize your farm and equipment.


Better Financial System: The updated economy adds another layer to the game. Things like market prices and financial planning make running your farm feel more strategic.

Cons:

AI Limitations: The AI is improved, but it’s not perfect. Sometimes you’ll have to step in to fix what they missed or finish a job. It’s not a big deal but I hope they refine it even more so you can set and forget it


Bugs and Glitches: There are some bugs. For example, I’ve had tires not fully loading or objects with strange hitboxes block me. It’s not game breaking, but it’s noticeable.


Cost: The base game is $64.99 and the Year 1 Season Pass is another $57.99. It’s a bit pricey, but you do get a lot of content for the money.



Overall, the game is a big improvement from FS22 and I'm really enjoying it, even if there are a few small issues I think it's worth it.
