'Express Train to Hell' actually makes the game less enjoyable.

[God's Bravest Alcoholic]

I really like this game. I love strategy, I love the challenge. I like the lore. Pretty much everything.
I enjoy just planning out all the tasks for my employees and then sitting back as everything works out, while speeding up the time.
There is only one boring part of this game, and that's, well, waiting. Luckily you can just speed up time and skip that part entirely. In fact, I even installed a mod that let's me speed up to 5x.

To my misfortune I got 'Express Train to Hell' during my playthrough. That abnormality actually killed a lot of my enjoyment for this game. Now I need to actually pay attention during the most boring part of the game. Speeding up just 2x is already too dangerous, and I always need to keep an employee close to that thing.

And I get that it's supposed to just add a new challenge to the game, but I don't feel challenged by it. It's just an annoying mechanic, constantly being forced to pay attention during this boring part of the game instead of relaxing and skipping it like I could before. I can't even take the time to just watch my employees do their thing. There is no thoughtful strategy to it, just keeping your brain agitated enough to the point that you don't forget the thing while three other abnormalities break out. If this abnormality would get removed, I wouldn't feel like anything of value was lost. I'm sorry.

I ended up having one run where I had queen of hatred, alriune, mountain of bodies and train ticket to hell in the same facility. Train ticket to hell was the final straw which made me go back to day 1.

i beg of you. turn your game speed down, that is why 3 abnormalities all breach at once when you check choochoo charles for 0.3 seconds.

Yup. Micromanagement is sort of the name of the game, but Express Train to Hell is just too much. It's near half the time limit of the next biggest time bomb [WhiteNight] and it really damn feels like it.

In THEORY, it's a buff if you can manage it right. It's just.. not worth it.

I have train and many ALEPHs and WAWs im chilling because i simply slow down the time or keep it up (Most of the time train just goes after the ordeals or anything that escapes or just hits the employees that can tank its dmg) i also have whitenight, he hasn't been much of a problem either for melting love i do repression with a good hp and sp as well temperance employee that way if she escapes she is met with the smile army and adortion army and mor e black dmg employees or others. Same for orchestra, i have an army that kills him within seconds when he appears its pretty much fun! So just try your best at the game and be as skillful as you can.
