Democracy stands for yet another day, lets see how long this lasts, don't get distracted... tyranny can be lurking around any corner...

The pure list of things that you can do in this game is enough for a positive review, like who doesn't want to throw Gnomes at your enemies?

I've played every Farm Sim since 2013, it can be debated over and over again of "not much different from last". Although changes are mediocre between other FS titles, the changes from 19 to 22 are quiet noteworthy from the new physics and sounds of the tractors to the new gameplay elements that control if you have a good harvest or not. Being able to experience the seasons mod without the actual mod is one way the devs love to incorporate the modding community into their games and for that reason they are one of the best dev teams around.

Atleast it is better than F76.

All serious note, I have about 5-10 hours of unmodded gameplay on this, literally cannot play it without mods, these are not mods for overhauls alone, they just make it more fun and attractive. The base game is missing so much and without them you'd need a good imagination to create and RPG environment as the game forces you to go down certain paths so the RPG element is near enough gone.

TL;DR
Its glory days were scuttled long ago.

Was good when it started, was more authentic and realistic in the manner of the countries that operated in the area in the time period the game is set in BUT, now this is a big BUT. The game has gone severely down hill, the only thing that is realistic now in this game is the ships and locations, the "factions" element to the game is just terrible, too many changes way to fast tbh. If you just want to take part in this type of warfare for the PvP element you may find some entertainment but nothing compared to what went on in the early days, I remember sailing around Jamaica apart of a 100-150 ship armada of complete random people who don't really know one another but did it just to defend their ports, coming across such a sight in this game now would be like winning the lottery.

I am not going to get started on this P2W crap as it is in so many games nowadays that it is just a depressing subject to get into.

This game is really fun and addictive, first 24 hours after buying it I had clocked up 14 hours of gameplay.

The main bug I encountered with the game was when the hearthlings were just finishing a building and then it would say that they needed some furniture or more stone but the building is already 100% complete. One other thing I have encountered is the fact that the storyline is either too short or has bugged out, I have defeted 2 goblin boses and built the township fountain thing and now nothing happens only the odd few goblin raids that keep happening, other than that I havn't encountered anything that would put me off the game.

The base game of F:NV will have you playing it for hundreds of hours, but the modded version of F:NV will have you playing it for thousands. The games story is awesome and the addonds make it that much better. If you really want a challenge while playing make sure to enable hardcore mode.

Got it for free so I am not complaining

It is a brilliant game when it comes to playing it with friends otherwise it can get very boring very fast unless you are into playing this sort of game on your own.

I went and made a massive army base with 2 nuclear plants beside it to make it look cool, I treated them well until they done a failed coup and I became more popular. Tourism started to increase a lot after that which was very profitable.
10/10 would get better tourism from failed army coups again.
