Dying?

[GerthQuake]

So... No new News in almost 2 months.... Stellaris has been released, and HOI4 is soon to be released.... is Cities Skylines dying? was skyfall and canals the end of the road?

There has been little official news posted here from Escher, the temporary community manager for Paradox, since he claims he is a little overwhelmed by his responsibilities.
However, perhaps you should follow this series of posts from the CEO of Colossal Order herself and stop being so pessimistic. Cities: Skylines is alive and well and will continue to move forward over the next couple of years at least.

Certainly not dying! And there are many suggestions of more DLCs to come. Many of the FANS are begging for more.

Just wish the whingers would stop complaining about broken games everytime a DLC is released.

This was a legitimate concern of mine, so take it easy there kiddo. Not all of us window shop Paradox Forums looking for a question to bastardize. I've got close to 500 hrs in this game.... certainly not a casual fan of Paradox, i just didnt want them to lose sight of C:S, in light of their major new releases coming up.

"Kiddo"? Heh, you're a little sensitive and defensive as well as pessimistic it seems.
I wasn't flaming you, nor deriding your concerns. You may believe that your concern is legitimate. However, it has been less than 3 months since the last update and prior to that, there have been updates within every 5 months since the game was released a little more than a year ago. I see no cause for concern, nor any absence of activity on CO's part that should give cause. In terms of activity, it has been quite a busy year and your pessimisim is foundless.

As for 'news', as I said, since the departure of TotalyMoo, the previous community manager for Paradox, there has been almost no update news, nor announcements from either Paradox or CO in this forum. According to Supplican, the devs do not read or post here, and so that means that any news you see here will therefore come from those of us who have paid attention to other forums and brought any news of further developments to this forum. That is why I directed you to the Paradox forum, where the CEO of CO has recently started a series of posts detailing precisely what they are busy with in all aspects of their schedule.
CO are clearly continuing to develop this game according to their ambition to make this the best city builder. Paradox, the publisher may have plenty of new releases coming up, but that good news has no bearing on the developer of this game, Colossal Order.
If you are legitimately concerned, then I thought you would have appreciated the tip to assuage your fears, which I should hope are now dissolved.

I do appreciate your direction and help with infiormation, really I do. But I could really do without your elitist tone there, Steam Himmler. Thanks.

You're welcome, I'm pleased to help Tevye, and Himmler can rot in Lüneburg for all eternity. Good day to you.
