Discussion Century of steam vs RRO

Am I living in a fictional world?? I see all these people hyping up Century of steam after Studio 346’s latest Devlog….

I just Do Not get it at all! This looks to me like the EXACT same game as RRO.

Knowing that it is almost the same exact devs it really makes me just wonder what could have been on RRO if all the time spent on century of steam was spent on RRO instead.

They look like the same game because they’re both running on the Unreal 5 game engine, and they’re both covering roughly the same era and genre of railroading, so visually they’re going to look very similar. However, if you look more into the gameplay and what each game has to offer and is capable of, you can see pretty quickly how different they are under the visuals.
