    Really wish the game had more engines during launch. Really weird there's no Henry or Duck. Especially Diesel is in the game

    I would have thought Edward would have made it since he’s the OG that started it all.

    Five brand new locos on one route isn't enough?
    Most TSW routes get maybe 2, often reused.

    Expect more, more are coming. You can bet on it.

    The first DLC will be the brendam branch. The route is already in development

    Do you think that DTG made a whole separate scene of Brendam Docks just for one photo of Diesel? When every other photo is in a similar location?

    Why is diesel the only character who's photo is a location we can't yet visit? And note, a location already detailed.

    That's a stock render, just like Diesel and the other characters. DTG didn't make it.

    Bruh that's different. There's only 8 OG engines that should be in the game in the beginning. Like how do you not have Toby?

    How do you make a Riviera line and have the 220 as a DLC?
    How do you do a WCML and have the Class 86 as a DLC?

    Easily... that's how DLCs work.

    If you don't like it, don't buy it.
    Just be honest and say you are cheap and be like other frugal folks and wait for a sale.
    Don't fake outrage to make you seem less penny pinching.

    Embrace your inner Scrooge. =-)

    I never said there shouldn't be DLC.

    No, you just drew an arbitrary line and demanded they follow your self imposed guideline for what "should" be included.
    It's a compromise between what were done and keeping costs down.
    To include more means to delay the game for longer and charge more.
    5 engines and a ton of other characters is plenty for the base game at that cost point.
    There is nothing stopping you from buying the DLC later as it comes out.

    Save up your pennies for more Sodor coming in the future. I’m already dreading it because the game is very nice and I’m going to want all the DLC for it. It’s a bit of a surprise to me how much I like it.

    There's always sales, stu!
    For those who have the patience anyway....
    I don't really put myself in that group.
