What Features In Tsw4 Warrants A New Game?

So Dovetail to me seems like they are starting to follow the pattern they use to do with TS Classic. 3 New routes, and no new major changes. Why? Just why? There’s no need for a new game when most of this stuff could be implemented and put into the current game. Rain effects could’ve been put into TSW3. The 3 new routes have nothing new and couldve been made a bundle like rush hour. The new locomotive DLCs could’ve been released in TSW3. The OHLE could’ve been made new into TSW3 (correct me if I’m wrong) the fog in TSW4 probably could’ve been made in TSW3. Now the PC editor I could see that as a somewhat need for a new game. Scenario and Livery Designer 2.0 Probably could’ve been updated in TSW3. Dresden-Riesa could’ve been a remastered route and given to owners as a free upgrade. (Like they did with Sherman Hill) Only reason I buy the new games is because you get 3 routes (in the standard edition) and it’s basically paying for one route.. Now the question is, how long will Dovetail support and release routes for TSW4 before they get tired and want to create a new game with very minimal gameplay changes? But whatever happens I will probably 9 times out of 10 purchase the next couple iterations of the TSW franchise (I hope we get no new games)

Now I actually have a theory for why Dovetail is doing this. Notice how Dovetail did yearly releases with TS Classic, but once TSW2020 came out, they slowly stopped doing that. they even dropped the yearly titles and introduced monthly new routes. So to me it sounds like when the major part of the community moved toward TSW2020, Dovetail saw a loss of profit so they dropped yearly releases and decided to move that scheme into the TSW franchise to see more profit.

 

Seriously? Another one? My god this forum has been complete drivel this week.

 

Yeah, they just need to merge them all into one thread.

 

Like I said... DTG selling TSW is like: you buy a car to travel to city A and B, after a year dealer informs you have to buy the same car with new carpets to be able to travel to other places and to have any service. So you buy the same car with new carpets...

 

All of them. Next question.

EDIT - I answered the thread question as I couldn’t be bothered reading the accompanying post.
