>Japanese gamers are playing gambling simulators with cute anime girls>Meanwhile American gamers are playing thisWhy?
this but actually ets2
>>729136550>gambling simulators with cute anime girlsName one game
Faustian spirit.
>>729136616I thought the same thing then i realized he meant gatcha games.
>>729136550The American is a golem slave who knows only work, even in their "free" time
I was playing shitloads of ETS and my buddy was like "why don't you go be a truck driver?"brother I can play ETS for 5 hours a day and the itch is scratched. Real OTR is like 10 hours a day with no pause button to take a shit and piss
It’s mostly euros who play this shit thoughever. Somebody post that meme of the german dude coming home from work to log into Forklift Simulator or whatever
>>729136802funny considering your prime minister or whatever the fuck you savages call him is america’s bitch
>>729136550Ets2 is simply superior product althrougheverbeit
>>729136614hell yeah brother
>>729136550Japan is a cucked nation. They are literally being worked to death in their dystopian shithole country and they unironically take pride in it.I will never understand weebs. Like what the fuck do you even find appealing about Japan? Sure I'd fuck a few Nip bitches too but that doesnt make me dedicate half of my life to worshiping their culture.
>>729136550Then simply combine the two and have cute anime girls driving big rigs
>>729136550>December 2025>still no real news on Road Trip beyond a few cars shown
>>729136550>two sets of pipes, one with a larger diameter >don't put one in the otherare truckers retarded?
i know a guy who has a job driving trucks, then he comes home to relax by playing american truck simulator on his sim rig.
but the japanese love american trucking games
>>729137290>They are literally being worked to death in their dystopian shithole country and they unironically take pride in itBut enough about America
My favorite simulator of 2025 is Schedule I.>Goofy>Australian>Very good fucking soundtrack>Small sandbox world>Chill to just kick back and work on your grow spots>Trying to see how many sales you can do in a day>Mixing ingredients just to goof offDang shame it's in early access.
>>729137523You're a fucking retard mate
>>729136550>Burgers>Playing job simYou mean euros.
>>729136616Mahjong
>>729137523look closer
>>729136550americans can't separate fiction from realitythat's why they pursue realism in games
>>729136550100% of people I know who play this are either canadian or German, not American.
>>729136550japs love ets2/ats
>>729136802literally a European game
>>729137906It took me by surprise, wrote it off as dudeweedlmao but got around to it a couple of weeks ago. I liked it until I started trying to manage employees and supplying both myself and their property.I also started playing at just the right time to get screwed over by the update with the cartel making Westville more obtuse than it should have been until I looked it up (screwed my rep gain by unlocking mostly ever customer before activating the meeting). Decided to stop but I'm looking forward to it being finished, if he can polish up the management and progression side of things.
>>729137290Best place to live if you got money. Everythings here.
>>729137905nobody is glorifying the US
>>729139705If you have so much money that you don't have to work there, sure.
>>729136550Sim games where you operate vehicles and machinery of various sizes as cute anime girls.
>>729136550>cute anime girlsNot anthro? Not interested
>>729137906>Schedule I.where do i find people to paly this with
I would pay good money for a graphically updated ETS2 but SCS releases shit with the speed of a glacier
>>729136614YES
>>729142686lets wait for the Coaches DLC first
>>729136614fpbp
Simulating the simplicity of pre 21st century blue collar life is one of the only things Americans can enjoy
Can't I just enjoy pretending to be truck driver? I don't judge people that jerk off to 14yo anime gacha girls either
>>729136550>Meanwhile American gamerssomeone post the boomer casino webm
>>729136550Americans never go outside, so trucks and traveling are like sci-fi concepts to them.
>>729143508my state has parks that receive more visitors than your entire country
>>729143508speak for yourself
>>729136550testosterone
Aren't simulators like that more of a German thing? I just can't keep up with the national gamer stereotypes.
>Caring about jpg women
>>729136550Why would I want to simulate an American Truck?
1. i don't enjoy living my own life2. i have no energy for true escapism3. a mindless "game" and a podcast are essentially soma, occupying just enough of my brain to quiet the shame and despair without demanding more than the most base level of interactionthese games are a fast forward button for those of us awaiting death. i also recommend snowrunner.
>>729146014americans and canadians typically like driving sims
>>729136614based
>Big Rig FM is oncomfy
>>729147609Americans practically invented them. the first real racing sim was Indy 500 in 1989, full 3D graphics and everything. developed by Papyrus who would later evolve into the iRacing studio. they also developed Grand Prix Legends and the NASCAR Racing series which are generally regarded as the best simulators of the 90s. the only one even remotely comparable was Geoff Crammond's F1 series.
Aren't these sim games mostly played by Germans?
>>729136550>japanese men are low test sissies wasting money on anime girl jpegs>americans and euros dream of living the trucker lifestyle and listening to radio while driving across the country while getting paid for it
>>729136550Post testosterone levels
>>729148390ATS is made by a Czech studio. the reason ATS exists is because so many Americans were playing and modding Euro Truck Sim (which was primarily designed for a Euro audience) to have American content that the studio decided to make an official product focused on it.
>>729136550>American Truck SimulatorSo, you play as an Indian?
>>729148557Japs: 0Truck sim players: over 9000
>>729148618nice
bump
>>729136550I play both. Am I the perfect male specimen, yes.
The Japanese also make truck games, but they are ignored in the West, like most Japanese things. But when an American indie transvestite makes a game inspired by the same mechanics, but adds transgender propaganda and depression themes, then suddenly Americans will buy it by the millions, as they usually do with indie games that are totally derivative of Japanese things.https://youtu.be/_cRJR335wAA?si=n0Sbz3CkYCyS7AW5&t=83
>>729137290I like how unhinged their fiction is. For some weebs this gives the impression that the people themselves are based for allowing wild shit to exist. And damn near every type of woman is better than American women. I wish it didn't take me until my 30s to broaden my horizons in that aspect.
>>729137906Mine was Cash Cleaner Simulator. There's just something satisfying about moving around piles of cash, feeding them through machines and slowly filling pallets with neat blocks of clean sorted notes.
Imagine a venn diagram with liking trucks, men, autism and games, any combination wants to play truck simulator and it gets stronger as more intersect
>>729137163Falsenvke
us americans are hillbillies and niggers.
>>729137989>>729139023buttblasted american truckers spotted
>>729136550i really want to play american truck simulator, can you play it entirely with controller, i really want to play a relaxing game after work, and take in american sights, but i watched one gameplay long time ago there were so many menus and shit, would i need to constantly calculate stuff on keyboard and click through menus?
>>729136614I want WTS, map of entire world.
>>729153293Get Snowrunner instead. That game fucks hard.
>>729153509I've been tempted by that game, but it has so much DLC that I worry the base game will be too bare-bones unless you buy a bunch to go along with it.
>>729136614Yesterday I booted TruckersMP and stood in Calais-Duisburg jam with 5-15 fps. It was great.
>>729136709>gatchawhat a faggot
>>729153509thanks i will look into it, which ever has lower download size i will get that.generally you don't really need wheel for them right, to properly enjoy them
>>729153293>can you play it entirely with controllerI can play 90% of ETS2 on a controller, I think I only pick new missions with mouse+kb.
>>729137163I'm a frog and driving through france in ETS2 is miserable with tollbooth every 5 seconds.
>>729154453At least French tollbooths have the fast lanes where you don't have to stop
>>729153293ETS2 and ATS are very good on controller. Only tried on a PS4 one but I assume it would be similar on xbox ones as well.
>>729136550i-i am-m ja-jj-japanese guys!!
>>729136550Trucks are cool.I play snowrunner instead though because I like offroading.
>>729153713The only DLC you really need is the season ones since they have maps and gameplay.Play the maps in release order since newer trucks tend to power creep the old ones and the three base maps will keep you going for a long ass time.JAT tire pack is if you're a shitter who needs mud tires on scouts DLC trucks are either useless or overpowered win machines, get them if you want but the game has a huge mod catalogue that are both better and free.
>>729136550I play ATS and Snowrunner, and have determined that the human race was created to build heavy trucks and drive them all over the cosmos.
>>729154453this and left drive britain
>>729155525isn't there already a trucking sim but in space?
>>729136802>implying the japanese aren't even worseThe term salaryman was coined by them and for them.
>>729156395Yeah it's called Elite:Dangerous and it's boring as fuck. Imagine ETS2 but you don't have any terrain, no roads, nothing to look at, you just hold W until you reach your destination
>>729136550Pic unrelated thougheverbeit
>>729153981here's the installation size with (most) dlc
>>729156395If you're talking about this game it's unfortunately kinda midhttps://store.steampowered.com/app/2380050/Star_Trucker/
what do you listen to while driving?
>>729157454Mostly youtube; Asmon, internet dramas, random 2-hour-essay about a video game I never played, international politics and so on. Sometimes just twitch.
>>729154453what version are you playing ? Its automatic toll everywhere just like irl, you dont need to stop
>>729158028I'll admit last time I played was last year and that was my biggest frustration with it.I'm mostly on ATS now because a burger friend of mine hates europe too much so I haven't time to play ETS that much.
>>729158192why does he hate us. this is problematic (we dont do that in FRANCE)
>>729158231he don't hate us, he hate eu
>>729158381je comprends
No matter how much I play ATS/ETS I can never "get it".It's so repetitive and monotonous.I guess you're meant to play with an USB wheel because with a controller this thing is a snorefest.
>>729158601I put on my VR headset, get my wheel set-up. Take a few 1000km routes and drive halfway comatose. Next thing I know it's 3 in the morning.
>>729158601I just drive..
>>729136550It's actually Germans playing trucking games.
>>729158679Oh I have a Quest 3, never thought about playing in it. I'll try that.
>>729158601Well, its just like any other simulator, a niche you either like or not. I like driving and I find it cool to drive around parts I ll never get to myself. I just listen to music and immerse myself like its the real thing.
>>729158601>It's so repetitive and monotonous.i view these games like a zen garden of sorts, you relax by completing repetitive, monotonous tasks at your own pace while also enjoying the scenery
>>729136550Different folks for different strokes. I don't judge.
>>729137290>>729151686These posts are written either by jews or sandniggersFunny how both sides hate Japan solely because Japan hates them
>>729160638Ask any white American or European about their experiences in Japan and how they get treated over there. Japs even treat hapas like trash just because they are not pure Japs.Go to Japan and find a job in a JP company (not western ran company in Japan but a real Japanese one) and then tell me what do you think of Japs when they treat you like a subhuman.
>>729136550anime girls are a distraction, they interfere with my autism
It's time for a truck sim gacha game.>you are Navigator. You can't do shit on your own but your navigating skills are incredible, so you just sit on passenger seat and tell trucker what to do>you roll for Truckers, each comes with her own truck. Naturally both Trucker and her truck are overdesigned because more details is always good>gameplay has you control 3 trucks in a row, also there are evil fantasy zombie robot ayys who want to destroy human logistics>each trip is split into 3-5 stages each having 3 rows of ayys + a particularly fat one in the end>if game lives long enough, there will be alt versions of your Truckers from parallel dimensions where they were defeated by ayys or got disappointed in trucking, but your charisma makes them get behind the wheel once again
ets is better
>>729136550>trucking: japan
>>729148672this doesn't work because they'll think they can't hurt anyone IRL>you know, like pedofiles>and then you get into THAT part of the conversation
>>729137785I can see it.>Get to drive in a no-pressure environment where he can fuck up all he likes with no consequences
>>729153293I play with a controller. You can mostly do everything with a controller just fine, and the default settings work quite well. The only recommendation I have for you is that you map a button to that key that toggles the minimap and side mirrors since it doesn’t seem to be mapped to anything by default. But, overall, yes, I strongly feel that these games are almost meant to be played on a controller, at least if you don’t have a wheel. Playing on KBM sounds kinda tedious honestly. >>729153509I advise against this. There’s no comfy cruising in Snowrunner, you just winch yourself from one tree to the next as your truck waddles through mud. Shame because I love games that let you build infrastructure, but Snowrunner is just a chore to play. It’s good if you have an infrastructure autism I guess since the whole game is basically about rebuilding towns
>>729137290You could say this about literally any country. I feel like only Scandinavia and Brazil are NEET friendly, every other nation works you like a dog. Japan is just more romantic about it, they jump off buildings and hang themselves from trees, instead of just overdosing on prescription drugs or shooting themselves in the head like a normal person. That said, I agree that Japanophiles are pathetic. Anyone who values another nation over his own should be fucking beheaded
>>729136923>it's like this IRL because there's a meme picture showing it/v/ has rotted your brain retardo
>>729156914>spend whole week working 11 hours a day>come home on sunday, spend 11 hours downloading my job simulatorfug
>>729143508If anything, Americans go outside TOO much. If I have to listen to another coffee addicted cunt going on about how she went rock climbing over the weekend, I’m moving to whatever shithole you live in
>>729164646>11 hours for 60 GBs?
>>729164761i live in pakistan
ew
>>729156395Star Trucker, yes. It tries too hard to be like E/ATS while at the same time going too hard into the simulation stuff like repairing your truck and replacing batteries and shit like that. It’s alright, but there’s no comfy cruising. You just slowly fly from one teleporter to the next while avoiding space debris. It’s one of those “wide as a lake, shallow as a pond” kind of simulators
>>729158601Many games are repetitive and monotonous. Gacha games, sportsball games, shooters, MMOs. A lot of games wind down to you just doing the same shit over and over again. For some, their poison is just driving a big rig across the country/continent. There’s just something so soothing about it
>>729148118Hey I live in this city
>>729165115*honk honk*
>>729136550They should give you a cute anime girl passenger who talks to you and reads directions. A lot of people already listen to a podcast or whatever while they play.At truck stops, you can feed her, shower with her, and sleep with her. Getting a hotel and nice food raises her morale, but cuts into your profits.
>>729165115>engages jake brakes at 3 in the morningnow what city boy?
>>729165528>BRAAAAAAPPPPPPPPP
>>729161591Giving a (You) because I desperately need a logistics gacha. Something sort of like Death Stranding meets GTA Online meets ETS. You roll for drivers and mechanics and, of course, various kinds of vehicles. Somebody, please, for the love of God. Enough with the “you play as a private company that is totally not a glorified PMC and all you do is send glorified mercenaries to kill people”. Nikke, GFL, AK, AL, BA, Limbus, all these gachas are the exact same shit
>>729156395Trucking is space is spacedad meme desu. You can try ED and you will be disappointed. Best case scenario you just autopilot like in X games because it's all about flying straight, jumping and flying straight again. Worse you're forced to do most mundane shit manually like in ED No roads, no traffic, no cool views, no feeling of the ship. And it's not going to change with realistic physics either.
>>729164584Except it’s literally true, you fucking retard. Maybe try talking to people for once in your life
>>729165223Finally a man who actually thinks
i need to take new screenshots, i get so engrossed in the game that i simply forget about it
>>729169609just let it die, threads aren't fun if all you see are necrobumps
>>729137290Japan is actually really cool. I'm not really a weeb, I dislike anime shit, and most non-western culture but going to Japan is like going back to 1950s Western culture. People care about their appearance, they take care of their homes and their neighborhood, and the place is generally a nice place to be. I can't say the same for any spot in America other than rural areas with very small communities
>>729151562Retarded take. Americans don't go to arcades nearly as much as japs do, with American arcade popularity falling off massively as soon as home consoles were released. Post a SNES trucker game made by Japs.
>>729136550Japs do play truck sims, and made their own map mod.
