Profile location is not always real life location or nationality.
My Display name changes often. To avoid confusion, please set my nickname to UmbrellaDong or my name or something so you don't forget.

Hello, my name is Maarten (previously David). I commonly refer to myself as UmbrellaDong.
Chances are, if I play a game, I will have the following aliases:
UmbrellaDong
UmbrellaZhuRong
UmbrellaPing
UmbrellaSiam

There are loads of other different display names I go by, but I cannot be bothered to put them here.


This isn't a definitive list, there's probably more, but you get the idea.

I usually set myself to appear offline on steam to avoid bombarding you with [x] is playing [y]. If I am playing IW 4X (MW2 MP Client), I cannot stop this from happening. it will force me to go online. Sorry.

I have twitter (@Tectonic_Beacon) and Discord (Junta Protocol#2401). (UPDATE 27/12/2020: Apparently I forgot to change these. They have now been changed to what they are now.)


I don't write reviews or edit reviews very often, but writing creatively or writing reviews are things I'd definitely like to do often.

The Rundown
Euro Truck Simulator 2 is a game where you play as a truck driver who has to build their company from the ground up while doing deliveries for various companies across Europe. You can purchase the trucks for your company, and later on you can purchase trailers and garages too. As you drive, you will have to manage your fuel and your fatigue meter to make sure you get from A to B without problems. This game features licensed trucks from MAN, DAF, Renault, Scania, Mercedes, Iveco and Volvo.

This game is single-player only. However, there is a mod that allows you to play multiplayer if you want to.

What I like

  • This game still gets a lot of updates, despite being about 7 years old. These usually range from content additions to gameplay function additions, as well as bug fixes.
  • There is a LOT of road to cover in this game. While it's not exactly a 1:1 scale (that would take a LONG time), it will still take you quite a while to get from one city to another, especially on a long journey. There are also DLCs that add even more road for you to drive on.
  • This game has steering wheel support, and while I don't use steering wheels myself (I use the keyboard and mouse, and it works really well too), that is a great addition for people who would want a more immersive trucking experience.
  • The game has sliders for options such as brake intensity and trailer stability. This can help you get a more realistic experience (or a more arcade-y experience if that's how you want it).
  • This game doesn't look too bad for its time, in my opinion.

Neutral
  • The game's optimisation is decent, though framerate can drop every now and then. A recent update added basic DirectX 11 implementation, which helped with this quite a bit.
  • Every profile has a truck speed limiter on by default (trucks can't go over 90km/h while speed limiter is on). While this is good for simulation, some might not like that. However, the option to disable it is in the gameplay section. If doing a World of Trucks contract, you will be limited to 90km/h regardless.
  • This game does have a bit of DLC. You don't need all of the DLC for the game to be enjoyable, but the map DLCs should help you get more enjoyment out of the game if you want to go somewhere new, and the cargo DLCs can give you more things to deliver. Paint jobs and design packs don't really mean much unless you like the design and want to buy them.

What I dislike
  • The AI can act strangely sometimes. It's not too common, but sometimes I've had a car randomly stop in front of me, and I've had to foot the bill or take unneeded damage to my truck (or cargo) because of it. (traffic offenses can be turned off in gameplay settings, but damage cannot be disabled without mods.)
  • Unless you take out a loan, it might take you a while to get your first truck. This can be fixed with mods that increase the amount of EXP or cash you get from a job, but it's still worth a mention.

All in all, I think this game is great. It's affordable (especially on sale), it's a somewhat realistic truck driving experience, and there's quite a few places to go. Some other players also consider it quite therapeutic and relaxing.

From my experience with the game, I would definitely Recommend this game.

Thank you.
