Looks interesting, though I wonder for how long it can really thrill one. I don't think it has much long term potential for the player.

TLM have done pretty niche stuff for a while. You'd be surprised what there is out there (not necessarily by TLM). Fork Lift truck simulator, combine harvester simulator, etc.

So it's like controlling the diving robots that actually go next to the Titanic, right? I suppose that's interesting.

How about a game that would simulate the very technical and dangerous wreck and cave diving? A bit like the SWAT - simulators, you'd control a group of divers and would need to keep an eye out on several factors. And to make things more difficult you could do historical dives as well with historical (read: dangerous) equipment.

This Titanic sim looks amazing! I love niche stuff like this. I have always been fascinated by Titanic and other grand liners of her time. I can only hope it makes its way to the States and that my computer could run it.

If you like Titanic so much try building or buying a model kit of her. A bigger one enclosed in display case.

I like the Titanic as a testament and symbol to human arrogance, foolishness and vulnerabilities.

The rusting interior resolution is not high enough for my taste and it looks too bright. Search ligh is usually more focused(limited)

Not to hijack the thread, apologies in advance but, here's the real deal:

Dive to the Titanic!

site in German.

I think the sim might be a tad less expensive though...

Indeed....
not sure if that's a "good" price?
Is that what people would pay to do that? A normal price for such a expedition, i wonder
Dam, just converted into $ AU, = $50,083 and a few cents

Does seem a bit steep, but considering the resources involved for such an expedition, then you begin to understand why it is so.
A bit like the upcoming tourist trips into the upper atmosphere by Bransons spaceplane.
