Im exactly the same as donnie... While yes there are other games available in germany (and in england). There are no other games like THIS available ANYWHERE.. There is no other game out that lets you drive on such a large scale map (yes truck simulator covers all of europe, but it doesnt have every road that is in the real world, in the game) This is probably the most complex/ accurate map of anywhere ive seen in any game.
This is as close as someone can get to cruising in a car for 150 miles, who doesnt own a car/ doesnt have a license.. And you can do it with friends too.
I know plenty of car guys who will go out several nights a week with their car pals and cruise around for hours, just enjoying driving, i also know waaay too many people that put in way more hours into face book than Donnie or i put into playing tdu2. Now facebook... thats an obsession for thousands of people.. All donnie and i are doing is spending a few hours a night playing a game where we are cruising with friends because that isnt possible in the real world for us.
There is nothing i like better than on a sunday, after my big roast dinner, to sit back and cruise for about 3-4 hours. I dont even pick fast cars, i will usually go for one of the muscle cars, or one of the other lower end cars (max speed 150 mph-ish ) and just enjoy driving, listening to my tunes... i have no idea how many miles ive clocked up but i know its a lot.. Also bare in mind donnies display is Km so it will look a LOT higher than yours or mine which is probably in miles.
To be honest i couldn't even imagine playing tdu for anything less than 1h :30 in a single session... It would feel like i'd just loaded the game. Even just an hour and a half 4 times a week, driving (not just sitting about in the cars) you can very quickly rack up the miles, but if you do like donnie and i do and create/take part in Very long races at the CrC, you will clock up the miles even faster. The "big island tour" we race quite often is 160 miles approx, that is why donnie has such a high milage..... erm..... kilometer-age..
For us the fun factor of TDU2 hasnt really worn off , we still enjoy it as much as we did when it first came out.. probably more so now, as we have all the extra content for it..
