What are the best city builders in the market today?
>>748997806i want isometric, prerendered buildings, but spline roads
i like workers and resources but it is extremely janky and some of the mechanics seem half baked
I hope Metropolis 1998 will be good.
>>748997806SimCity 2013 still holds the candle I'm afraid.
Any chance CS2 will ever be fixed?I feel like at this point even if they do it will be hard to get people to make the same level of custom content that CS1 has.

>>749005963There was never any chance.
>>749005963lol no.
>>749005963Apparently it's doing much better with the new team but don't quote me on that. Check back in 4 years.
>>749006263How is it these days? The demo is years out of date and is not anything like enough to justify the price to me.Doesn't it even have different races available?
>>748997806DOrf fort
>>749005963less modders but modders are pumping out a lot of stuffi play the game as a sandbox anyway and i do quite enjoy it
>>749007938>Check back in 4 years.This is the sobering blackpill about all paradox games.And when those 4 years finally pass and you check on the game? Wait another 4 years. Maybe after a fucking decade it will finally maybe be somewhat fixed (stellaris). Or maybe it will take another decade.A years worth of work in Sweden takes four times as long in reality. And the more you complain, the slower they work just to spite you. God I hate sweden so much.

>>748997806>pollution = grey-purple colour filter>no seagulls, piles of garbage, cracks in the ground or anything fun>dumps aren't actually landfill but perfectly flattened land to temporarily store waste>in fact game doesn't pretend its buildings and roads can survive on anything but the flattest terrain, whilst making every map hillier than the alps>water simulation doesn't even work: dams make no electricity despite being the best and most widely used renewable power IRL (instead we get wind/solar maxxing and fossil fuels and nuclear are the unreliable power sources)Cities Skylines sucks>>749008470It gets worse if you ever play it during those 4 yearsBecause at the end of those 4 years you'll find out they fucked with the formula too much and now it's a game of gimmicks that have nothing to do with the base game, but if you don't buy the DLCs you're missing out on mandatory features required to play
>>749008470Yes but they really did fire the old team and handed it over to some other smaller Finnish team and I heard they've done more in a month than the previous guys did in a year. Treat every PC exclusive as an early access game.
>>749005963Being fair, it took years for CS1 to get anywhere as well. A lot of people played it a few hours on release then waited 5 years for updates and DLC to fix it. Even now though, it runs like ass on modern hardware and was never really optimized, so it looks like shit while running like ass and you need to overhaul CS1 with mods to make it playable.
