    Dtg aren't the developers; they are only publishers so they aren't going to create any content. Viewapp is responsible for all content.

    It's not a Dovetail game so that's probably why.

    Still a bit odd to see that they publish a new tram simulator, while their own old tram simulator never really did unfold.

    It's not dovetail who make it or decide what is made for it, so not really.
    Practically, it isn't.

    Certainly an odd arrangement, one would have thought DTG could have a bit more oversight and input to the future direction, as publisher.

    What he's saying is that dtg are not responsible for creating any content. Publishers don't make the content; they publish it hence the name. Developers develop the content

    Dovetail only did the console release. Game was abandoned on PC by the time it released on consoles.

    TramSim probably needed a publisher who has experience with publishing on console. That's probably why the devs now cooperate with DTG.
    And i don't see why/how this has anything to do with TSW as suggested in the first post.

    Just bought the deluxe version for £11.99 in the Xbox simulator sale (the standard version is £9.99). It’s not a true simulator by any means but it is fun to play.
