  How?

    Nothing astonishing, just driving long hauls every day for several years, almost every day stuck behind traffic, snow, landslides, landslide remediation crews, trains, etc. I feel tired and stressed out just looking at cars sometimes. I still have to drive a decent amount and I still want a small and cheap minimalist everyman’s EV as long as I expect to need a car, but I really wish I could just stop one day and maybe not dread them so much.

      Living in Chicago, that’s the reason why I like these driving games. I can finally just fucking go without some cockgoblin straddling two lanes, using the shoulder to pass, and sitting at a green light.

      Wouldn’t arcade games like Need for Speed be unrealistic and different enough to not feel stressed out, or same problem?

      You’d assume fun car games (especially beamng) would let you blow off some steam

      Interesting take. The first thing I thought you meant was that you can’t get the feel of a real car in a game.

      I always find myself wondering if folks in more professions feel that way about sims of their job. Like does the guy who works at the train depot get home and play Train Sim, or the chef playing Overcooked?

        The best part of sim games of your real job. Is you get to do the fun part of it. With out fucking drama and workplace politics.

        Absolutely! I saw a talk at Develop last year from some of the Farming Simulator team, and they said a huge chunk of their audience are farmers.

        Tons of pilots play flight simulators. I believe the same also applies to Euro/American Truck Simulator, based on the community discussions I’ve seen. I’d be surprised if the same went true for train sims too.

        A lot of my colleagues love playing games simulating our job.

        I don’t because I eork enough already and don’t want to get bad reflexes from something badly represented in a sim.

        Ever wonder why us automechanics seem to drive cars that are so junky looking (or, conversely, are absokutely immaculate)?
