    how long does it take for dev to listen to players opinions and delivers good on ever rising expectation?
    3-4 years or a decade!!!!
    this does not apply to only this game but also to entire gaming industry people love their chosen franchise and expect something new and exciting in next a few years but rarely got what they wanted devs tend to use same stuffs until people (and fans) get

    devs tend to use same stuffs until people (and fans) get tired of their products and leave their fandom
    since 2012, this game has played same and numerous DLC get train simmer hope down
    with no new mechanic to get excited about, the series feels like its moving back and waiting for people to get sick of it and throw up

    I don't think, that you have to buy this game. It's pretty ridiculous, because TS 2015 is even worse than 2014, but with higher price. The game should have an early beta status, because of the tons of bugs and issues. Graphics and gameplay are the same as in TS 2014, but there are no interesting scenarios and campaigns there.

    Although it has occasional highlights, this game is really let down by sloppy execution and a very serious lack of attention to detail. Sure its fun to drive a train around but if you are forking out £25 for a route it should have mountains of content and not be full of bugs and errors.

    I adore trains, but this....? This isn't even a game. This isn't a train game. Whether it is the apalling graphics, or the ridiculously overpriced DLC, this is a bad game no doubt.

    I really wanted to like this game, but cannot recommend it. It is basically just a "starter kit" out of the box. In order to add variety to the very few trains and routes, you have to download content and it is EXPENSIVE. I am not going to spend $20 for an engine and another $25 for a route. Way too expensive. To add real variety costs hundreds, even thousands of dollars! TheI really wanted to like this game, but cannot recommend it. It is basically just a "starter kit" out of the box.

So much potential for those who love trains, but so disappointing and frustrating out of the box. Expand

    A simulator built with an excellent accessibility and all the trappings, ready to offer realism and rewarding challenges to all those fans who will be willing to spend a fortune to buy the infinite plethora of DLCs that represents the only barrier to thousands of miles of fun.

    The new routes provide a wide range of challenges and the new trains, particularly the ICE T, will please many train fans. Load times are long, so if you have a SSD install it on there.

    Train Simulator 2015 was an interesting experience. It reignited a childhood spark for a brief amount of time, as well as brought into context that while the life on the rails is simple in movement it is not simply pushing the throttle forward and waiting.
