Let me know if big sale posts do not belong here. I figured I’d post this because Transport Fever 2 had one post about an update 7 months ago and that’s it, game could be rementioned again.

    I can also strongly recommend it. Great gameplay and beautiful graphics.

    Setting up vehicle level view for an airplane that goes through route via your whole map is great fun.

      So I opened up the game for the very first time today before being called away to work before I could finish the tutorial or really get any impression of the game, besides: I was not expecting Transport Fever 2 to have voice acting.

        I don’t even remember it having voice acting, as it’s been years since I played what I am assuming is the tutorial. 😀

          You probably switched it off in Settings or don’t play Campaigns.

          Ended up bouncing off for some reason I can’t even describe. I can say it was less of an “absolutely not!” thing and more of a “hm this isn’t really as fun as I thought it would be and the games I already have provide more fun” thing. And I was so excited to really like the game, too.

          I will say being able to follow the vehicles, both from the driver’s view (you can honk the horn! With a horse-drawn carriage the button to honk produces a neigh!) and from a third person view, was cool though. And mousing over people and finding they had NAMES was very unexpected and a pleasant surprise.

          I remember Hades crediting the devs’ dogs for making the dog sounds that are in the game. I wonder if anyone ever credited the horse that made the sound effect for this game.

            That’s really too bad. At least it was on heavy discount.

            I do admit, it does take some time to get rolling, the initial game tends to be very planning and min-max heavy before you can start building out your network and influencing city growth.
