ets2 and ats, if you count deliveries-for-profit as a road trip. no world ending or demons (other than speed traps), just burgerland and truggs (or yoorop and slightly shorter, but more powerful truggs)
ats is getting regular cars soon but no idea how they'll handle
>but OP said lesser known
listen i'm assuming these types of games are lesser known outside of viral toktik videos like the guy running over bikers that was then imitated by multiple other people trying to cash in

>>737058226
Forgot about those. Also Mudrunners and Snowrunners I suppose although it's not really roads.

Dunno why this game sold so much to be honest. Amount of reviews suggest it sold several hundreds of thousand copies.
The car autism is good I suppose, but what is there to do beyond that? Even games like My Summer Car have a ton of shit to do beyond tuning your car.

Guh???

Unironically the one game where I felt like I was road tripping with friend(s) was dayz back when it was an arma 2 mod. What are you looking for in a road trip game? Does it need to be 100% driving or is it important that it has stops along the way where you get out to do shit before returning to the car

>>737060638
Yeah it needs regular stops to do something interesting or help the road trip go more smoothly. Getting better gear, car parts, fighting etc.
I'm not much of a greasemonkey so I don't really care if it's not very detailed on how the car works.

I just want a driving game that is:
>open world
>ton of road signs
>100km x 100km
That is all. Don't say I should drive in real life.

>>737061963
I mean aren't those all of the Test Drive or Forza Horizon games? Unless you mean a game where you get out of the car and do other things besides driving.

>>737063169
Sure, but they do the bare minimum for me. I really like to pay attention to road signs and the dashboard. When going somewhere, I'll look for a sign telling me how far it is, calculate the travel time based on my speed and the reading of my odometer, and occasionally glance at mile markers and my clock to make sure I'm keeping on pace. Love that kind of stuff and there isn't a game that comes to mind that really does it.

Imitated, not intimidated speedreaderbro...

Sounds like My Summer Car, but I don't know how big the map is. There's also another game that was a copy of My Summer Car and I think the goal was to do races, anyone remembers the name? I think it was about tuning races.

Pacific Drive, driving AND crafting

Heading out. Ur wlcm

Wish there were more "driving" games.

Rest of the games itt are fucking trash. Geometric shapes moving on z access.

Everyone who suggested those asset flips, eat shit.

Unironically PS1 Driver might tickle your fancy a little bit, there's no GPS function you have to plan your route through the city and make do when you get sidetracked by cops.

>>737061963
>ton of road signs
Go back to your office and read the MUTCD, civilcuck.

People used to hate NFS The Run but it is what you are describing.

Thanks Nig--

>>737066932
Was it actually a road trip? Thought it was just another Most Wanted-like.

>>737060570
On one hand I don't think that's wise after all these years, on the other hand it's not like the dev added a lot of content in that timeframe so I guess that's less stuff to do?

Road trips themselves are friendslop bro. Barely anyone does it alone.

>Drive Beyond Horizons
It's fucking garbage. Literally The Long Drive with a new coat of paint, less features, less variety, worse performance, just everything about it is shit. I'm actually mad I supported the dev thinking it would get updates. I later found out it's made by like 2 teenaged shitskins who have absolutely no idea what they are doing or how to improve the game.

There's Jalopy but that games pretty jank too

>>737066662
I can't believe I spent over an hour in this book looking for a specific sign that isn't apparently within scope. I at least now know that I was looking for is technically not a sign, but a delineator.

Are there any decent taxi games that are not unrealistic like Crazy Taxi or am I just going to be stuck with the GTA and Mafia minigames?

I watched a couple buddies play it while waiting for shit to download and I enjoyed being able to use autistic car knowledge to identify their cars including a Tucker 48 and I just googled it and apparently it wasn't actually The Long Drive, it was another very similar looking early access open world semi post apocalyptic survival car driving/repairing game. That's a whole genre now I guess.

>>737070913
Thanks for the heads up, I actually had it in my wishlist.
