Why A New Game Instead Of A Core Update?

you could just update the game, you dont need a rebrand or a new game
usually the games i play receive updates which improve the game and keep people playing

 

Thanks for the heads up. I'll keep my eye on Simrail to see if it ends up as a viable alternative. Since this hobby can easily get expensive, I'll be careful this time around so that I won't get burned twice.

 

The only possible way in which that could be argued is that we incessantly complained about the fact so many golds are literally impossible due to there not being enough total attainable AP on the run.

 

I did complain a lot about the scoring system. I was flabbergasted it being addressed in the stream as I thought it was something they would never look at. It's a console game for god sake. You can't just be rewarded for driving. The gold medals feel worthless....

I almost started to rant again about it but it's addressed. I can calm down now

 

Then explain Rush Hour

 

Or EVERY rebrand of a "Live Service" on the platform where a new release comes out and regardless of if you buy the new expansion, it gets a fresh icon, fresh store art, updated name, etc.

 

do i need to say anything more?

 

I'll give DTG some free marketing:

Train Sim World 4: Same game, new name
