At a time where games like Train Sim World squeeze every penny out of aspiring gamer train fans, releasing game after game with minimal improvement, Derail Valley is the equivalent of going to live in the Forest to get away from society to be at peace. The game is visually stunning. It's an empty world with asset built towns and industries but you never see another person, train, vehicle moving. Why does it endear so much, then? Because it creates an escape. After a tough day I can be alone in my thoughts, be my own boss: Alone in my cab, shunting stock, planning routes through my inventory map, sheltering from the rain and elements, saving money for new licences or cool items to make my train more efficient, faster, or help it to pull more weight/cars. I can see how this game would be great in VR, but it's still a blast on KBM. I find there is a steep learning curve, every route seemingly difficult, and derailing can signal the end of your career if you get too overconfident. The updates to this game have made it better and better. In terms of a Train game, it's right up there, yet people don't talk about it enough. It's chillingly beautiful, if not a superb game to play alone for people who want to be at peace and rack their brains a little. I feel like the AuADHD part of me is at peace when I boot this up. I can't not recommend it for the peace it gives me from my monotanous every day life. A must buy.

I just realized ive never put a review out for this game. New update just dropped, so ill keep it short Masterpiece of a game and excellent execution of a train simulator, Dovetail games sims struggle to keep my interest more than a few hours, but this game ive logged almost as much time into as ive done with war thunder and GTA V. The devs care about this game and still support it with the same attention to detail as they did when overhauled came out. Each update brought noticeable changes, from improvements to tracks to allow higher speeds in 2020, to new industries and even a museum in the update that was released just minutes before the posting of this review. If you have a minor interest in trains and railways, i reccommend this game, it wont let you down.

It's good, but I don't like that you are forced to beat the game to use a custom difficulty setting. I don't feel I should have to clear the entire game and start over just to play it the way I want. Let the player have control over their experience

This is THE best train sim game on steam. Devs actually care, no DLC, updates, actually FUCKING works (I wish I could refund TRS19), no extra download crap, no crippleware, no pay service, just an excellent game.

I don't care about trains. At all. But I was bored and figured this might be a relaxing way to waste time in VR. Sneaky bastards tricked me into liking trains. So far I've only done a few jobs in career mode, but already hooked. DV is an interesting mix of relaxation with a bit of challenge. And the devs seem to be on top of bug fixes and feature updates on a regular basis. ----Update---- I've now played for several more hours, and I gotta say this is one of the most immersive VR games I've played. Sometimes while hauling ass cross country just before sunrise, I swear I can feel the breeze in my hair and smell the dew on the tall grass. It's a meditative experience, especially on a dark and rainy night when the fog starts rolling in.
