    I read on steam that TSW 3 will no longer support the Italian language like the previous editions; is the news confirmed?

    Interesting, but not surprising as we have no Spanish, Russian or Simplified Chinese routes.

    Since the lack of interest in the Italian community has also led to the exclusion of the localization in our language ......... bye bye TSW.

    Good Fun

    You seem to be using English quite fine, so I don't see the problem.

    You are right, I could normally use the simulator but it is the decision to exclude the Italian language (so far always present), while others continue to be present, to make me angry.
    Several times I and others have asked to also consider the Italian railways, trains such as the Frecciarossa 1000 for example, are also used in Spain, they travel to France but are not considered; perhaps it is a commercial decision. Now completely excluding the Italian language also disappoints me a lot also because all the railway simulators but also the Flight Simulator versions have always implemented our language; I don't want to be argumentative but I'm definitely disappointed

    Unfortunately, those who would like material other than GER / UK / US cannot even try to make it with their own community because an editor and relative guides are still missing; now that the localization in Italian is also missing, the enthusiasm drops further

    Right, I'm Dutch, my language was never included in the first place. So Italians already had more than the Dutch. Anyways, bye, have fun playing other games, while I enjoy TSW3 in English.

    While I understand the frustration on your part I think your tone is a bit out of place. I'm Italian but was raised bilingual, so the omission of Italian doesn't bother me at all, but since generally the level of English that Italians are able to speak is quite low, that creates more problems for the Italian community, that the omission of dutch does to the Dutch community, as the vast majority of residents of the Netherlands are very close to being bilingual, as I witnessed when trying to learn Dutch in Rotterdam. The lack of rolling stock from the Netherlands or Italy is bothersome, I love both countries and feel that there's a lot of interesting gameplay and stock that we're missing out on. Dutch trains however, were at least somewhat represented in TSC by the wonderful ChrisTrains, but we got nil even back then, so while you might get some third party addons down the line, if DTG doesn't take a shot at an Italian route I doubt we'll ever see one.

    Complaining about the lack of foreign content, yes, I agree.

    Complaining about the omission of your local language, while you're perfeclty able to write and understand English, sounds like a silly thing to do.

    It is not silly to complain that a sim which claims to be international does not have localization for European languages. Spanish is spoken by over 300 million people, Italian by 60 million plus, Dutch by 17 million plus. It may not be realistic to expect full audio, but localization? - give me a break. Regrettably, my language - Welsh - will never receive any attention - because we are mostly bilingual?
