Both games may look similar but are completely and totally different, so it all ends up as a matter of personal choice.

I played simcity 3 and simcity 4+rushhour, I never wanted to even try simcity 5 because it wasn't a better game than the 4. Just a completely different one (small maps, multiplayer,...). I found sc4 feeling in Cities Sylines after having tuned colors, added some building models and bought 2 dlcs.

I played Sc2000, 3000 and 4 (without rush hour), refused 2013 after the son had so many probs with it. Found CSkylines much better than any SC title. The totally different game mechanics made CS much better with the bigger maps.

is it true that simcity5 is more like a mobile game in terms of gameplay?

I played SimCity 4 for years with 10,000 mods (as I was a very detailer back then, I also had a city journal about very detailed small cities like Miracle Mile for Skylines). What I gotta say about Skylines is that, it's a near-perfect game, possibly even better than SC4. The only problems on this game that I can't stand is that all custom content are loaded into the RAM, as a result I cannot do detailing in this game anymore unless I have 64 gigs of RAM, or a powerful i9 CPU. Plus the lack of random events and unnatural disasters such as UFO attack, giant monster, or car accidents, something I wanted to be added into Skylines but getting a lot of disagrees for some reason. Anyone played past SimCity games should get my point, but no, they kept clicking the disagree button.

Oh and I can only say one word for SimCity (2013): Trash. At least Societies was a tiny bit better than 2013.

This thread is about SimCity (2013) for computers, not SimCity BuildIt for mobile devices!

SimCity 2013 only had one expansion and a handfull of overpriced items you could buy. Cities Skylines is still getting updated regularly and has had, what, six expansions at least. I think that alone answers the question.

Simcity 5 is worse than Cities Skyline only cause of small maps.

If Simicity 5 had bigger maps and it wasn't abandoned, it would be better than Cities Skylines. But this is not the case.

CITIES : SKYLINES has


Bigger maps
No online
Better traffic system
Still supported by devs
Huge modding scene


SIMCITY5 has

Better Graphics and Art direction
Better and deeper management
Modular System for building
Better specialization system
Real day night cycle with rush hours

I think you forgot the forced online requirement, that caused issues at release day.

It's a mod and it's bugged, also you are forcing the game to do something it wasn't allowed to do and the simulation can't handle this with many issues.

I play the mod without any problems so I dont know what you are talking about

The SC13's bigger map is only 4x4km, while in Skylines it is 18x18km, so CS' map is much, much, more bigger.
