Might Cities Skylines 2 Suffer The Same Fate As Sim City?

[LyghtWayve]

When Sim City was a spectacular failure, Cities Skylines came on the scene and met the demands and needs of gamers. Now that Cities Skylines 2 seems to be a disaster, perhaps another company will come in and make a great city builder.

What do you think?

So why so many negative reviews?

Many gamers just follow the crowd. This is the honest truth.

Nah, Simcity 5 was much worst than this. But the state of this game is pretty dogwater either way.

Simcity 5 was a good game that the developers made bad choices on. At launch, the regional maps were there to promote multi-player. What actually happened is that you would start a region with a group of folks and many did not return to their cities thus locking you out of some resources. They eventually changed that gameplay element, but by the time they did the damage was done in the eyes of the player base.

Absolutely not. CS2 is a lot better than the community is making it out to be.

CS2 is far ahead of CS1 and has a great foundation for future content and growth.

I agree, CS2 as a much better gameplay foundation vs CS1.

Game is great tbh. Just released a little too early.
They will get the bugs out and optimize more. People just don’t have patience.

Its not great yet. Simulations are broken. Performance sub par. And every time they patch they break something new.
But Im sure it will be great about 6 months from now.

Mate these guys don't even care that simulations are broken. This game is divided between those who want a fully functional working immersive simulation and those that enjoy map painting and care for little else.

Simcity failed not just because of the online only, but the map was tiny and the roads were awful.

Whoever oversaw the management of this project did an absolutely terrible job and I hope they lost their position in managing or creating any future games they might have. I would 100% fire whoever this person is, considering the fact that they caused a huge tanking in sales.

Cities skylines 2 could have been saved by Modding, but as you can see, there is no modding available. It's good as dead. I don't know why they're stalling on modding, which could take weeks or even months to come. I'm out.

Modding won't be available until performance is fixed so maybe around the Christmas period or after

has many similarities:

-Ploppables, that no one wanted.
-no water (spring) remove tool
-fake sims
-fake simulation
-wrong numbers
-bad performance
-overpriced
-multiplayer? dlc? in a time everything needs multiplayer, see diablo 4 ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.
-Regions? to connect all your build cities. dlc? when CO ? and how much?

multiplayer is what killed simcity

CS1 simulations were no better ... you could cheese them all day long.
