    I had an idea where there could be a two player game where one person plays a Mini Metro playthrough while the other person plays Mini Motorways but they both play the same map simultaneously. Both players need to be on their toes as they will need to strategize on what the best way to place track and road as each store and station pop up in succession. I feel like this could get too complicated and hectic but I feel like it could be fun for the strategists out there.

  • @an_asp
    @an_asp 11 місяців тому +105

    Learning about the segregation stuff absolutely ruined this game for me, oddly enough. I was in it for the traffic management, and realizing that the game incentivizes keeping your network as disconnected as possible just killed my interest in an instant, because it turns it into a different kind of puzzle than the one I wanted to solve. There's a very similar game that gets a lot closer to what I want called "All Quiet Roads", where buildings of a certain type spawn traffic headed for every other building type, but some types are more common than others. So your residential districts have different traffic requirements than the single airport servicing the whole city. In that way it feels a lot like a cross between Mini Motorways and Mini Metro. It's not nearly as pretty, but the subtle changes to the mechanics really improve things for me.

      @TlalocTemporal 10 місяців тому +6

      This is exactly what peeves me about this game. It heavily incentivizes making collections of neighborhoods, rather than functioning cities. Segregation is the best solution because the pins are incredibly colourist, rather than changing utilization based on traffic. Mini Metro has as much to do with civil engineering as BABA has to do with sheep: it's just an art choice.

      AQR was almost taken off of steam because a certain, "larger game company" requested a cease and desist for being too similar to them.... I wonder who that could be 🤔
      I actually majorly prefer Mini Motorways & Metro to AQR and I can for sure see the similarities, there is absolutely no denying that.... but it is just depressing to see a game company gain traction and then immediately try to monopolistically kill off it's competitors, especially from solo devs

    I can't help but wonder if some traffic lights off the motorway exits would've helped your blue businesses toward the end there. Those areas were the main areas of slowdown, and maybe more efficient traffic would've saved you.
