How is this a game ???

[R R]

So this is my experience trying to learn how to drive the loco so I can teach my kid :

I load up the game and in the menu I select Tutorials and the first tutorial after vehicle tests (ETCS training scenario level 1) and press New game.

After a grueling loading time I get a UNSKIPPABLE intro (and after failing this tutorial 15 times you start to notice it.. also how can someone FAIL a tutorial hello?)

Anyway it says to procede to the train and activate the cab .. no other instructions .. fine I figure out how to open doors and get inside .. 

So im in the cabin and just stand there for 5 minutes .. cool

I open youtube and find a video that shows to turn on the battery so I do that .. then the guy sits down .. I sit down SCENARIO PROCEDURE FAILED

ok  .. after several attempts of this I go to simulation settings and turn everything off and finally I can sit down WITHOUT FAILING THE FIRST TUTORIAL

perfect so it says to enter the 9022 number so I figure out how to do that no problem its not rocket science (although if you press 22 too fast it becomes a!)

Then it says there are two scenarios 1 and 2 and we are on the first so ofc I press 1 and groundhog day..
After some time I notice the esagebe (SHP) system is number 5 so I press that and we are one step further..

Then it says to select option number 3 so this is the first time a clear instruction is given .. hurray

And now come the fun part:

he says to press the first option and then ENTER

NEXT CONFIRM AND ENTER THE DATA WITH THE YES BUTTON AND PRESS ENTER

so I spend half an hour looking for a yes button and hitting ENTER over and over and clicking the yes button on the screen because maybe its a touch screen..

after a while I noticed the YES is next to the 3 so I press that and then with 8 to confirm .. 

after confirming the alert and waiting for a whole minute he just says to drive the train ...........

so AGAIN I open youtube and after another gruelsome trial and error experience and finding the right youtube tutorial I finally somehow manage to get the train going..

after not even 5 seconds the scenario fails again

now you would think that since I saved the game right before accelerating the train after I load it the train would move right ? right ?

the loading takes 3 times longer than if I used new game but fine.. no problem ...

I try to accelerate.. nothing.. I notice the game does not actually save the state of the train.. the cabin is turned off when I load ... 

they probably had bugs doing that so they just turned everything off ...

I turn the cabin back on and close (hold) main swtich / panto on / compressor on / service brake running / spring brake disabled / forward / radio 1

NO MATTER WHAT I TRY THIS TRAIN WILL NOT BUDGE

fine .. so I restart the tutorial scenario again ... do all the steps .. 

 

Train starts moving and after about 1 minute he says I aproach some indicator..

the again scenario failed..
 

 

THIS SHOULD BE CATEGORIZED AS SOFTWARE NOT A GAME

CATEGORIZING AND SELLING IT AS A GAME IS A SCAM IM SURE MANY FELL FOR

IT IS A BROKEN TRAINING SOFTWARE ON HOW TO CONTROL A FLAWED TRAIN CONTROL SYSTEM
