      To give some context, New Holland is quite a big company, and we're only talking with peoples from the Global Team (and a few from the german team) And at this event it was the English team, and they don't communicate with each others or just a bit. And since it took place in a agricultural expo, they had a lot to do already :D

  • @AluinKali
    @AluinKali 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +434

    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.

    I think its popular mainly because its so watchable and "anyone" can do it. You watch something like on league and its difficult to get someone who doesn't play to understand but when you watch big machines throw bales of hay in a barn it just clicks. Also, after playing it a bit, its really just a chill game.

    Weird that I see this the morning Farming Simulator 22 is free on the Epic Games Store. I'm not that guy - I'd be an affront to the farming vocation but it's interesting.

    I've randomly watched a Farming Simulator competition when I was at a games convention in Switzerland, where I did some Speedruns. There were almost no people watching - butit was really intriguing because I had no clue how one would even compete in a Farming Game on an E-Sport level. I still didn't understand anything after watching like 2 matches, but I was just grinning and happy, that this kind of corner of E-Sports exists, because the players seemed to enjoy it ^^

    I knew Farming Sim esports existed, but I didn't know the inner workings of it and this video feels made to order for me. Thank you People Make Games crew for being amazing!

    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!

    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.

    Just as you introduced the New Holland team, I happened to be driving by a great big New Holland sign on a building. That was uncanny.
