Farming Simulator 22: Platinum Edition (Xbox Series) Review - Your farm, your rules
I’m forever amazed at the success of the Farming Simulator IP and I’d hazard a guess the audience is either people doing farming-related desk jobs or those with a romantic view of the profession - as I expect few farmers would have the time to sink into open-ended sandbox sessions. The good news, for both those curious about the IP and existing players looking to return, is that Farming Simulator 22: Platinum Edition provides the forestry-focused excuse you need. It remains a weirdly compelling experience that offers mechanically fiddly, management-heavy, methodical busy-work coupled with immersion-breaking jank, like triggering actions with no animation or watching your harvester backflip over a fallen tree trunk. That said, if you’re willing to work through a steep learning curve and come to grips with the dense interface, it provides an engaging and cathartic time-sink.
