“Graphics are awesome, it really feels like I'm driving a real train.”
“The graphical fidelity in Train Sim World 5 is stunning.”
“Whether you're riding through bustling urban landscapes or tranquil countryside routes, the visuals capture the essence of real-world rail travel beautifully.”
“The game is a joke; Dovetail developers are making fun of us playing this crap. The graphics look old, and gameplay is still the same as TSW2. Stop scamming us, please! I just opened the game to refund it, and people are still saying, 'Wow, the game is amazing.' You guys need to check how games in 2024 look now.”
“But the graphics are stuck in the past, and many train functionalities are not simulated.”
“There are tons of graphical issues. I have a 7800X3D, 64GB RAM, 4070 Ti Super, and on ultra, this game still has pop-in graphics and other immersion-breaking issues.”
