    Here is my preliminary conclusion after about 16 hours on the XBox One X:

    Pros:
    - pretty nice and varied map
    - good driving experience of the trucks
    - well populated with pedestrians and cars
    - sufficient update possibilities in the garage
    - support of various steering wheels
    - the only truck simulator available on consoles
    - nice day night cycle

    Cons:
    - map to small, maximum travel time under 10 minutes
    - to linear jobs, no own tour planning
    - truck sounds hardly noticeable in the cockpit
    - no NPC trucks
    - no traffics jams or other disruptions of traffic
    - no Multiplayer
    - not enough content for long time motivation
    - sometimes flickering textures
    - no rain, snow or frozen streets
    - elastic band traffic KI, which often disregards the traffic rules
    - fast boring soundtrack, no support of other music sources like web radios

    My final conclusion:
    Makes fun for around 15 hours, but then becomes very monotonous and is therefore not worth the current purchase price of almost 40 €. Wait with the purchase until a multiplayer mode is implemented and the game on sale for less than 20 €.    … Expand

    The good: The scenery is quite impressive, especially around sunset or at night. In that respect, it's a beautiful game. It's also quite simple and has a relatively short learning curve. The diversity and realism of other cars on the road is pretty good.

It's also quite simple and has a relatively short learning curve. The diversity and realism of other cars on the road is pretty good.

    The bad: I find the frequency of rest needed to be annoying and somewhat tedious. Also, the text convo experience is slow and fairly cheesy. The physics aren't great. For example, a fully loaded truck doesn't seem to carry momentum when coasting and speeds change too rapidly (both accelerating and decelerating). I've never driven a truck but I've seen 'em enough to know they take all afternoon to get up to speed. Also, I never see other trucks? Maybe that's later in the game but for now, I'm always the only truck on the road.

    Overall: If you're REALLY into trucking, there aren't many (any?) other options for xbox so give it a try. But it's not a complete game, more of a cheap sim.    … Expand

    Loading up Truck Driver for the first time gives a real sense of interest and intrigue, this being the first ‘trucking’ game on consoles. But then afterwards, every little thing that the game presents will dampen your spirits, leaving you to drive with no passion through a bare-bones game that needs to visit the nearest petrol station for a refill and tune-up.
