Comment on Forza Horizon 6 Leaks And Is Being Pirated On PC More Than A Week Before Release
Stern@lemmy.world 1 day agoI 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?
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.
I had heard anecdotes about how railworkers try to weed out train guys because the train guy aspect tends to override the railworker aspect which ends out being a problem.
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.
Probably not no
Oh we definitely do!
Ever wonder why us automechanics seem to drive cars that are so junky looking (or, conversely, are absokutely immaculate)?

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.
