I've never played a train simulator so free is a good price to go in at.

Yeah, I’m wondering how much there can be to something that goes forward or backward on two tracks, but imagine there is still somehow an instrument panel that puts a car dashboard to shame.

I used to know a guy who applied to work as a train driver (and got the job). Ran into him a couple years later. Told me it's actually a pretty demanding job. Physically tough, as shift work tends to be. Mentally tough, cuz there are tons of regulations and procedures to follow, huge amounts of training (6 months worth before they even let him drive one). There's also little margin for error. You also need to be the kind of person able to perform monotonous tasks for hours on end without zoning out, cuz if not, disaster can strike and people will die.

Oh, and emotionally tough, since you never get used to seeing your train hit a body, and the chance of that happening is pretty much 100% if you work the job long enough.

Oh. Well then, it should be interesting to see how well the game conveys those elements…!

Mothergunship, it turns out, is brilliant. Putting together a ridiculous multi barrel rapid fire weapon with stacked pushback penalties that hurls you around the games arenas is great fun.
