    Sorry, didn't realise the opinion police was out and about. Just trying to nudge the game in the right direction, which I see now is frowned upon as the law dictactes must love and praise whatever DTG gives us, even if it's a huge step in the wrong direction for the overall TSW experience.

    There people here who redesign every announced DLC in their mind and then complain that the one actually being released doesn’t match it. It’s mainly about where routes should have gone to but the unrestricted designs can go much deeper than that. For this one, some people are even redesigning how the game works to accommodate their wishes.

    If this has the same price point, it should be worth it.

    I'm amazed by the fact that the original IOW is more expensive than the (better looking, better train) 2022 version.

    This of course is also just an opinion :)

    Everyone is entitled to an opinion, but you are like a broken record. You’re simply wasting your time and energy repeating yourself.
    And again you think it’s the wrong direction of the game but others feel differently. So stop making your opinion appear as facts.

    And it’s not even DTG that’s making this route, it’s a one man team so you are even wrong on the insistence that DTG are the ones taking the game in a direction you perceive to be wrong.

    Thinking about it now, and reflecting on the messages from those who say this should have been made an extension to GWER, I do think at a minimum the section between Slough and Twyford should've been included, given (except Burnham) they're all consecutive stations. Worth pointing out a similar thing was done with MVL, whereby a substantial portion of SEHS was included with the route, albeit with much improved scenery. Incorporating this idea into this DLC, with the length proposed, wouldn't have even required any scenery improvements since that was done in GWER and the two DLC's are set in the same era as one another. However, I'm happy for those who are looking forward to this, and all the best for Johannes, but this isn't for me
