Farming Simulator 19

The realism of Farming Simulator 19 - both mechanically as described and graphically - adds to everything the game embodies from the realistic operations to the aesthetic farm scenery. Because of the amount of detail in the graphics and the game mechanics, this can be described as an incredibly hardcore simulator, which comes with a high level of freedom of choice.

Farming Simulator 19: Platinum Edition is the latest to come out of the Farming Simulator series; that is until 20 inevitably comes out for PC next year. I’ll be reviewing this game as a whole as we don’t have a standalone review for the base game. The Farming Simulator franchise has been around for over ten years now. That formula hasn’t changed all that much. Which depending on the type of player you are, it is either a good or bad point.

Farming Simulator 19 Platinum Edition is immense, tricky and certainly not a walk in the farm! There is a handy tutorial to set you on your way but be warned, you will lose many days if not months of your life to this game in order to perfect your farm. As a father of 4 boys I would personally struggle to sit down every day for a few hours to carry on what I was doing from the day before. That said this is the perfect form of escapism if you just need to go chill and take time out from your life, which let’s face it, we should all do from time to time. The attention to detail within the game as well as the amazing CLAAS vehicles that have been included in this edition really bring something to the table if you love your farming and engineering. I award Farming Simulator 19 Platinum Edition the Thumb Culture Gold Award!

Overall, Farming Simulator 19 plays well and effectively puts you in the shoes of a farmer. Many use games as sort of escapism, to become something fantastical, powerful, to overcome evil, etc. Farming Simulator serves the same general purpose, only in a more realistic and tangible way by sating our curiosity about a profession that many of us will never know.

Farming Simulator 19 is another solid entry in the series. With the addition of John Deere and more animals brings some more fun to existing players and new. Though I feel it's missing a few things to bring it over the top, Farming Simulator 19 still deserves respect for where it's at today.

Giants Software brought their fans another installment of the Farming Simulator series, this time with number 19, John Deere and slightly better physics. If you're a fan of virtual farming, Farming Simulator 19 should fully satisfy you.

Bigger and better and full of life(stock).

Good old vibes and same problems of the past. The gameplay it's very slow and needs great patience.

This is a game that can turn a gamer in to a simulation game fan. I have never been a fan of Simulation games, yet this game had me hooked. From the graphics to the downright attention to detail. This is a game you will just get lost in playing and look up hours later. Definitely a must have

Farming Simulator 19 has a remarkable improvement since its last edition, with better graphics, more scenarios, colors and animals to take care of, but still sins in the movement of objects in the scenario. It seems to be a game aimed only at the loyal audience, not at the beginners, because the learning curve is very delicate. The new features add more dynamism, but I feel it should've had more customizable options.
