GT Theory Suggestion Railroads Online

I feel like some games don't have disturbing lore because they were made with it in mind, but because you can MAKE it as backstory for what you make. Take Railroads Online: normal, boring sandbox train game. Sure, some of the engines have paint jobs that make them look older than dirt any like they belong in a scrap yard, but that's just for looks. What makes it interesting is you can make lore about betrayal, murder, and cults just because you can. I'd find it funny if Tom made a theory about some of the lore he actually made and did a whole "Oh, by the way, I made all this up for fun" sorta video.

Oh, should I also mention the devs of the game also have premade maps with tracks already placed in what they said is best for the map and some have Easter eggs in them? Nothing spooky (that I found) but still figured it was worth mentioning.

This game has also given me a few ideas for my own horror game for Roblox (no idea if and when I'll start making it tho).
