    Small but in my opinion important correction: German farmers are not protesting higher taxes. Taxes are not being raised. What they are protesting is a cut to diesel subsidies. This is part of a bigger initiative of the government to cut subsidies that incentivise the emission of CO2. While this is a cut to the bottom line of farmers I think it’s an important distinction between higher taxation and the cut of subsidies.

    30:00 This little moment here, is easily the most human things I've seen captured in a youtube video. It's interesting how strong emotions could connect you so well to someone.

    This is such a great video. I never really cared much about the FS franchise and I for sure didn't know that there was an actual e-sport league for it. But you got me emotionally invested in New Holland. I hope they'll make it big soon!

    Man I know when you're like on a pro team in anything you feel bad when you lose but just think of the experience you are having overall! Traveling, friends, hanging out, and some good wins along the way.

    It amazes me that people understand someone playing COD or something and going to tournaments but change the pixels around so the guys are cows and the chopper is a tractor and it’s unimaginable.

    A few years back, I happened across the bale esport by chance on the Giants Twitch channel. It was oddly compelling. I play a bunch of different genres, which includes games like Farming Simulator franchise, but these game modes give a nice twist and get players to micromanage everything to reach their objective and this efficiency is the main objective of esports, on top of timing and other factors.

    I went in to this thinking that even as a fan of simulators I didn't see any way farming sim could be interesting as an e-sport. 15 minutes later though and I'm hooked.

    Definitely agree this has a Quinns feel to the unusual(?), let's just say non-typical, nature of the content but I get it and I am quite up for tuning into the world championships off of this.

    So happy to see this mash-up of 2 very different parts of my childhood 😅
    Though FWIW, I still don't think Farming Simulator communicates just how dangerous/exciting 30mph can be when sitting 3 metres high in a 3-tonne tractor while pulling a 20-tonne trailer, and feeling the whole thing amplify every bump in the road 😅
    I know one person who rolled by cornering too hard on a small B-road while hauling a tanker, and carelessness when driving across steep hill fields even at relatively low speeds can go wrong very quickly.
