RELAX
You know the feeling when you get in a car for a long road trip? Just you, the car, the road and the nice music that fits perfectly in your traveling mood.
That is what this game/simulator is all about. Just you, the truck, the cargo, the (incredibly stupid) AI and the ingame radio.
The amount of relaxation you get from this game is beyond me.
After a hard day at work or school you just go to you pc boot up ets2 and it's practically the same is getting a massage from your crush or drinking a moghitto on the beach with bellydancers all around.

STEERING WHEELS
The greatest thing about this game is the immersion. When you have a steering wheel (the G27 for example), you will see that this driving sim has one of the best configurated Force Feedback systems. You can basically feel the road in the palm of your hand. When you take a turn you can feel the wheels turning in the right direction and the road resisting it.
The FFB goes crazy when you hit a wall, drive on dirt or cobblestone and even when your revs are rising. It is that amazing.

ENVIRONMENT
Have you ever been to the mountains in Austria? Ever seen the clifsides in the east of europe? Been on a citytrip in Brussels? Well if you have don't go away just yet, you can do it again, in a bloody truck!
This sim has an amazing environment. Especially when you are in the mountains where a cliff of doom and death is waiting right next to you and where little peace of heaven and beauty is welcomming you in the distance.
In the countryside, cows and horses will be greeting you as you pass by, on the highway you can have a look at nicely rendered trees and other vegetations.

AI
You might have seen how I praise this game to be declared holy by the pope of videogames. Well, hold on because ♥♥♥♥ is about to go down.
Nobody has experienced a vast majority of stupidity in AI.
As you blink they never get out of the way.
Beacons to show them to stay clear of this truck don't seem to help.
Right of way... no right of way.
When they stop to let me pass by, they start accellarating as I move past.
Sigh... sorry... moving on.

GRAPHICS
In the last couple of updates there has been major changes on the graphical side of things. And oh boy were they amazing. As you sit within you cabin you can see the dawn come to greet you as the sunbeams flow all the way through the windows and reflect on your sidemirrors. When you are parked you can see every little detail on the road. Thi sim has beautifully rendered textures and an amazing light engine.

MODS
Euro Truck Simulator 2 is very mod friendly. They even made an interface were you can enable your mods and prioritize them in the last update. And there are many mods out there. From cabininteriors, truck skins, cargo types to even complete map extentions.

Overall this game/sim is completely breathtaking while receiving 97/100.
