“The European Truck Simulator 2 wasn’t simply a game to me; it became my whole persona. I fired it up to take a "quick trip," and now I'm calculating turns in real life and judging other drivers' lane etiquette as if I…”

“This game should be renamed to Euro Truck Driving Simulator or marketed as such. This is just a game and not a simulator at all. Simulators mimic real world environments. I dont see my truck break down even after 50,000…”
“If you enjoy simulating the boredom of slowly driving a truck in the most realistic way possible delivering stuff from one place to an another then yeah, sure go ahead chief. Personaly tho? This game bores me to death.”

“Very nice, graphics is a little bad, but everything else is very good! Highly recommend!”

“I started playing this game 7 years ago. Since then, my wife left me, I was fired from my job. I have no money, no girlfriend, I live with my friend's 67-year-old sister. And all because of a 74-hour trip to Nizhny Novgorod with tomatoes. I recommend it to everyone.”
— a player, Steam review · 339 hrs played“It made me get a truck driver's license in real life. Don't play this game unless you want to find peace and unintentional meditation. And after 2,800 hours I'm still going strong; new DLCs, new Maps, it never gets boring, and if you finish don't forget the amazing modding…”
— a player, Steam review · 2,906 hrs played“I am so lonely. All the other Viltrumites are scared of me. Noone talks to me. Noone wants to be my friend-- They think I am unstable. They send me from planet to planet committing atrocities in their name. And as I get better at it, they fear me more and more. I am a victim of…”
