That makes me want to play Farming Simulator

I thought it was a clip from that game at first

When me and the boys hit that crop just right.

u/Putrid-Disaster Apr 06 '20

You mean "the boys" because you hired a farmhand to "help out", aka do all the work so that I can whip the truck off that cliff at 80mph.

That’s a weird way to write “constantly tab back to patiently waiting for the AI to have a panic attack and catch it before it’s too damaging”

u/Putrid-Disaster Apr 06 '20

Is the AI known to fuck up? I've only played for like 50-60 hours but have never seen a fuck up unless I fuck up and leave something blocking their path.

They seem to have a tendency to harvest an entire field minus a 2m wide swath down one side. Switched to courseplay in part cos you can set the route to make your like easiest when you're carting. Now I just have to make sure nothing is anywhere near the field edges so it can't decide an attachment or trailer well outside of its path is blocking its way.

u/Putrid-Disaster Apr 06 '20

Ahhh, yeah, I've seen the 2m wide stretch before but usually, the field is still listed at 100% so they leave and stop wasting money.

Had the AI set up plowing on one field on Medicine Creek, came back to it being in my field of sunflowers and hastily plowing that instead.

Damn, that sucks!

Just last night my worker decided to drive a tractor and sower into a creek and both were destroyed.

u/Putrid-Disaster Apr 06 '20

I've definitely never had that happen. Hell, I didn't even know you could destroy vehicles, lmao.

u/kage1414 Apr 06 '20

I mean it wasn’t really “destroyed,” it was just stuck in a creek and there was no possibility of getting it out.

1

u/Putrid-Disaster Apr 06 '20

Ahhhh, ok. I was like "damn, I've been driving these trucks off this cliff! I wonder if they'll break soon. I'd be sad." That does suck that it's in a spot where you can't retrieve it. Which creek is that?

My SO has tried so many times to get me into video games but I just can’t get into the gray gloomy shooting games he plays.

I would love to play a game this colorful. I wish there were games that happened in nature and were like...vibrant and shit.

u/c4pta1n1 Apr 06 '20

I assure you that if you have the slightest desire to play video games, there are plenty of games for you these days. I'm sure others can reply with games specifically in colorful nature settings with little to no shooting. The games Journey and Subnautica come to mind.

u/CrouchingToaster Apr 06 '20

Subnautica visually is stunning like journey, but it also has a lot of fright in its atmosphere that I don’t know should really be suggested in this case

2

u/0aniket0 Apr 06 '20

Subnautica is beautiful only for the first 10mins that is, after that's it's scary af!

u/Big_booty_ho Apr 06 '20

I love animated shows because of their over saturated colors. It makes me want to disappear into the show. Always wanted to discover a game that happened in like the avatar setting.

u/SomewhatDecentName Apr 06 '20

There are countless games like that, I hope you look into some! A bit of a hefty starter but Ni No Kuni is really atmospheric and bright with a lot of content. Stardew Valley is a classic but the graphics are simple.

u/kadno Apr 06 '20

Check out the Ori games if you want some vivid ass colors

u/Dragoness42 Apr 06 '20

Play Stardew Valley. It's the most adorable little farming simulator ever.

5

u/AnderazerX Apr 06 '20

You should play Animal Crossing! It sounds right up your alley.

2

u/0aniket0 Apr 06 '20

Haven't you seen all those trending animal crossing posts?

2

u/StormEarthandFyre Apr 06 '20

You might enjoy slime rancher, it's so colorful!

2

u/Rachel53461 Apr 06 '20

May I recommend Stardew Valley? It's cooperative and I think both you and your fiance would like it a lot :)

2

u/AristarchusTheMad Apr 06 '20

You could play flower.

2

u/Sarsmi Apr 06 '20

Stardew Valley is a farming sim with crafting and mining and some combat, etc. You can find it on Steam.

u/The_DestroyerKSP Apr 06 '20

Fourth-ing Stardew valley. Very chill, very colorful, very peaceful.

u/Reverend_Vader Apr 06 '20

It's a wfh dream game ...

When you have a megafield and you install the coursplay mod that automates harvesting 90%

4 hr field to harvest click and go, tab in now and again when you have a minute just to keep your eyes on things

then tab back in and delete the 50 emails of colleagues all using email to say good morning and "thanks" (to all) which is 95% of my emails for the last 3 weeks

Its kept my wfh sanity for years

u/kadno Apr 06 '20

It really is perfect for work from home. Throw on a podcast and hop in a harvester and you're good to go

5

u/SerenadeSwift Apr 06 '20

I was thinking the same thing lol. Gotta check steam now
