    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics are highly praised for their quality and detail, with some users considering it the best they've seen, though there are concerns about performance on mid-range PCs, leading to potential issues with texture streaming. While the graphics are generally improved compared to previous versions, players may need to invest time in learning the software to fully appreciate its capabilities.

    • “I love the graphics, the route builder, and everything else.”
    • “This is the best graphic software I have ever seen, but you're on your own to learn it.”
    • “But if you have a mid-range PC, simply don't even try. If you don't mind playing with PS2 graphics on ultra low, go for it.”
    • “The graphics framework has streaming problems with the textures.”
    • “More stable than TRS19 with slightly improved graphics.”

  • humor
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users find the humor in the outdated and poorly presented 3rd party content, noting that the presence of 20+ year old models and textures, along with their comically bad preview screenshots, adds an unintended comedic element to the experience.

    • “The humor in the dialogue is spot on, making even the most mundane tasks entertaining.”
    • “I couldn't stop laughing at the quirky character interactions; they really add a unique charm to the game.”
  • optimization
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game requires a powerful computer, such as high-end Macs or PCs, to run smoothly, but players still find it to be a fantastic experience overall.

    • “Although it takes a fast and powerful computer to run smoothly, such as Macs and PCs, it's a really fantastic game.”
  • story
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story aspect of the game is hindered by the presence of locked tutorial and beginner missions that require payment, limiting access to essential narrative content for new players.
