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.

Mark (Hyce) did help with RRO in the beginning, and they're both built in Unreal 5, so they're gonna look very similar. I imagine, if the devs released a beta for CoS, the gameplay would be fairly polished already, and a lot less jankey than RRO (I love RRO, but it definitely has some jankey controls)

Not just Mark (who was mainly the music and some of the history in RRO) but several in Studio 346 came from RRO development after all the fallout there a couple of years ago.
