Coming from TF2 overall I like it. There's elements that need some polish but for a game launch it's pretty good. Pros: - Range of usability improvements like the line and vehicle manager all been in the same place, easier to build/remove lines/buy vehicles for lines, and placing tracks is faster - Graphics look amazing - Tons of mods available on release - Great campaign missions (didn't bother with them on TF2 but actually enjoying them on TF3) - Great sandbox mod - The tycoon elements are a massive improvement on TF2 Cons: - Some usability issues like sometimes it's hard to find the information you're looking for, it's too easy to click on something and a new line/stop is created. These feel like stuff that will improve over time It's great fun and will only get better with time. But the base game release is already pretty good. It's got the core features that really take it to the next level

It runs fine for me, and as someone who played TF-2 its got a lot of QOL and really just feels like a way more complete game. Idk why everyone is acting like this was supposed to be city skylines level of detail, they delivered on what was promised so far imo

Sorry, but this is quite disappointing but the game feels bit unfinished - I know some other players have issues with performance (I got it bit better after GPU drivers update) but actually what I really don't like is the anachronism in models like depots and factories. You start the the game in 1900, yet all stations, depot, factories has everything poured in asphalt and you can see modern machinery in factories, heliports on offshore oil rigs (which are itself looking modern - it is even a question if they should be available in 1900) - it is just breaking immersion. Also the Trees and grass (at least in temperate maps) looks strange - actually worse than in TF2 imho. I also think that the new UI (especially for setting new lines) is not well designed.
