It's the regular crashes, framerate hiccups, AI bus problems, timetable glitches, and mod compatibility issues that have brought me closest to mutiny during the past week. and the huge shark fin protruding from the gutter at Staakener Strasse. the over-eager exiters pushing themselves part-way through doors on moving buses. the permeable brickwork on the corner of Breite Strasse. I can live with the levitating pedestrians at Grundorf Bahnhof, U Ruhleben, and Charlottenstrasse. acknowledgement that the follow-up to one of the finest driving games of recent years was bustled out of the door before it was good and ready. In 2014, in the light of the NG272-length bug list currently dominating my play notes, it feels like a whispered apology. In 2011 “Such a work is never actually finished - one must simply declare it to be finished once one has done as much as possible given the time and circumstances.” felt like a dangled promise. Both the OMSI and the OMSI 2 manual begin with the same Goethe quote.
