    Farming Simulator 23 doesn’t build at all on last year’s predecessor. On the contrary, it lost many features and fans of the series should steer well clear of this. Yes, you can farm while you’re travelling, but why would you do that when the downsides are so many? It could perhaps work as a good entry point, but in that case it probably shouldn’t be so ugly.

    It's just not a very good game...You should just stick to the last year's version.

    Farming Simulator 23 is not a game for newcomers. My time playing was largely filled with confusion, and the in-game tutorials and guides do very little to point a new player in the right direction. It may appeal to core fans of the franchise since it is at least a portable version of the game, but the scaled-back features are likely to be what those players care about the most, and anyway the price tag of $45 is frankly a joke compared to the $8 this same version of the game costs on Android and iOS. Perhaps I’m wrong and there’s some X factor a hardcore Farming Simulator fan can tell I’m missing, but Farming Simulator 23 is a clear non-starter for newcomers that clearly lacks plenty of content that longtime fans have come to enjoy on more powerful hardware.

    Thus, those responsible managed rather an average performance in "Farming Simulator 23" on the Nintendo Switch. Although there are enoughThus, those responsible managed rather an average performance in "Farming Simulator 23" on the Nintendo Switch. Although there are enough vehicles and possibilities, the content of the Switch version is already a bit little. Thus, only two maps are available to you and some elements of the other versions are not available at all. Clearly, the Switch is not as powerful as the others, but there should be a bit more. Still, it's a decent simulation for the Switch. Full Review »
