60 of 402 · most liked firstMany years ago this game in a weird way helped me escape homelessness. Because it was a crucial tool for me to get my cdl. I was really struggling to understand how the truck moved in an alley dock maneuver and on a long shot I bought this and practiced the alley dock over and over on my laptop in the dorms of the truck driving school I went to (the dorms were ♥♥♥♥ but felt like luxury after living in a run down car for awhile). I suddenly was able to do it perfectly in a real truck and…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Euro Truck Simulator 2 is the most dangerous game ever made — not because it’s intense, but because it slowly convinces you that this is your calling. You start off laughing. “Haha, I’m driving a truck.” Cute. Innocent. Then suddenly you’re researching torque, axle configurations, and why this specific gearbox just feels right. The next thing you know, you’ve dropped $1000 on steering wheels, pedals, shifters, and other extremely serious truck-driving equipment — not to race, not to drift, but…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Bro this game is literally **German logistics simulator turned existential lifestyle** 🚛💨 Euro Truck Simulator is what happens when you think “yeah I’ll just drive a truck for 10 minutes” and suddenly it’s 3AM and you’re emotionally attached to delivering IKEA shelves to Poland. You’re not playing a game. You’re **becoming a truck driver.** Gameplay? * Drive ✔️ * Blinkers ✔️ * Existential thoughts on the Autobahn at night ✔️ No shooting. No chaos. Just you, your truck, and 1200 km of…

Everyone breaks the speed limit. Someone somehow rolled their truck. Friends starts thinking its bumper cars. 2 Hours later. Job not finished and everyone in 100k debt. Fun

unlabelledView post →I started playing this game 7 years ago. Since then, my wife left me, I was fired from my job. I have no money, no girlfriend, I live with my friend's 67-year-old sister. And all because of a 74-hour trip to Nizhny Novgorod with tomatoes. I recommend it to everyone.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Honestly, this is my favorite way to chill out. It’s surprisingly therapeutic to just throw on a podcast or some music and drive. I can sit here for hours and completely lose track of time.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →On a warm and sunny day in 2008, my uncle bought a CD for the game called Euro Truck Simulator. I was 8 years old and I spent many weeks sitting beside him while he drove trucks like Valiant(Volvo), Swift(Scania), Majestic(Mercedes-Benz) and Runner(Renault). I had no idea trucking was huge in European countries and I learnt a lot. Whenever I used to visit my grandmother's house, I used to run upstairs and spend hours buying and trying out different trucks throughout 2009 and 2010. My uncle soon…

unlabelledView post →Spent $60 on fast-paced action games during the sale. Ignored all of them. Instead, I sat in a digital Scania truck for three straight hours, delivering 22 tons of frozen peas to Frankfurt in the middle of a heavy thunderstorm while listening to late-night radio. No shooting, no rush, no sweat. Just high beams and open highway. Genuinely the best anti-stress purchase in my library.

unlabelledView post →I fired up Euro Truck Simulator 2 through Steam Family Sharing with my friend, mostly because he wouldn’t shut up about "bro just try it for a while" I expected some slow, boring truck driving chore. Instead? The game grabbed me by the throat and after 100+ hours I haven't been able to stop playing it. When I booted the game up, I realised this game isn't about driving the trucks. It's about the vibe of it all. The engine rumble, the stupidly satisfying click of turning the indicators on, the…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →As a long-haul trucker who’s racked up more miles than my logbook can handle, Euro Truck Simulator 2 feels like slipping back into the cab of my old life. The game captures the rhythm of the road perfectly, from navigating Lisbon’s cramped streets to cruising Norway’s endless highways. Running a virtual trucking company, upgrading rigs, and meeting tight delivery deadlines mirror the real-world grind I’ve lived, where every load keeps the bank from calling. It’s an odd kind of comfort, letting…

unlabelledView post →Euro Truck Simulator 2 is somewhat outside my usual milieu. A truck driving simulator rather than a cRPG or grand strategy game. At a glance, this isn't quite for me. Yet, by a twist of fate, trucking happens to be part of my heritage. I grew up spending much of my childhood travelling from one location to the next, seeing the world from inside one of those cabins. Scania, Volvo and of course MAN aplenty. They fill many of my childhood memories. If this game isn't made for me, I don't know who…

That brings me on to my next point, this game is now just over 13 years old and SCS still continue to keep this game updated with new gameplay mechanics, features, DLC and free of bugs; something…

unlabelledView post →Beside the calm/chaotic driving simulator, this experience has taught me a lot about life in general. Generally, to deal with my finances. It teaches you the direct co-relation between money and apathy. When you are a low level, you care about staying within the rules, following the order. When you have money, it's much easy to get away with serious offences, too far to the point of apathy. So, in hindsight, I will say this game has humbled me. Kudos to SCS for the constant updates and feedback…
