You can actually implement trains by making the landscape around them move and have the train itself stay still. Much easier than having to deal with the headache of moving trains. Edit: *some trains

So, what decides if a train is a worthwhile addition? Let me know some of the good and bad of trains in games!
-
good video but i am thoroughly disappointed that Sunless Skies didnt get mentioned
-
I have the feeling that your next video MIGHT be about AC: Syndicate. :P And that's a surprisingly deep analysis. When I saw the title I thought it was something about how usually cars are the main mode of transportation in games set in a somewhat modern setting with trains being reserved for fast travel and set pieces, but bringing the historical significance of trains into the mix was an interesting twist.

Airconditioning the NYC subway was deemed too expensive with even modern tech. They'd have to either cool the entire network, tunnels included, or build huge airtight doors at each station
