Most of the issues have been fixed
Railway Empire seems to get a bad wrap, and I'm not sure why.I really enjoy sim/tycoon games, so when I saw the variety of railroad tycoon games available (Railroad Tycoon 3, Railway Empire, Railroad Corporation, etc.), I spent quite a bit of time researching to try to make sure I picked the one I would enjoy most. I'm a casual gamer, so I like a mild but not frustrating challenge. I read a lot of negative reviews about Railway Empire, but most of them were pretty dated, and it looked closest to the type of game I would enjoy--so I gave it a shot. I'm glad I did. Most of the issues players reported in their negative reviews have since been fixed (broken/cheating AI, bugged tutorial, inability to turn off opponent audio, no full america map, no X crossings, no nighttime, etc.). So far, this game has been a lot of fun. It's beautiful and laying tracks (a major part of the game) is very intuitive. I also appreciate the ride-along view. This game does a good job of handling the micromanagement tasks for you by default (e.g., choosing the type and quantity of cargo) while still giving you the option of handling those details if you want. It's true that the opponents can be annoying and the staff management tedious, but most modes give you the flexibility of setting up the game with only the things you want. I've seen a lot of complaints about the signals in the game, but after watching some online tutorials, I find them to be manageable. A couple of things to note about this game: - The Complete Collection came out before the Japan DLC, and therefore doesn't include the Japan DLC. - The GOG version doesn't include the Scenario Editor (as that feature is integrated with Steam Workshop), so if that's important to you, get the game on Steam instead. Personally, I thought the editor looked pretty limited and found the DRM-free GOG option more appealing.
