Frustrations with Cities Skylines 2 are starting to boil over among city builder fans and content creators alike: "It's insulting to have a game release that way" (www.gamesradar.com)

Oh the irony... SimCity sucks, now Cities Skylines sucks.

Can we get a good SimCity now EA? It's your chance...

No put down the paw right now! Stop it!

I'm glad to have waited on this game. I was going to buy it but after all the terrible reviews, decided against buying.

Dude what do you mean it sucks? The original is A tier.

EDIT: I see you have since edited your comment to prefix "now" in front of cities skylines. Could have still added the "2" to reduce ambiguity. 4/10 edit

City Skylines doesn't suck. There are performance issues, yes, but really the only real issue is the lack of mod support. People got so used to modded CS1 that CS2 -- a giant leap forward for us vanilla players-- felt like a step back.

I'm creating cities that look way better than anything I was able to make in CS1 even with all the DLCs, dozens of mods and hundreds of custom assets. Saying this game sucks is a dead giveaway that you've never actually played it. There are problems, sure, and CO's communication has been... awkward. But, the game itself is quite playable and enjoyable.

Yeah I could never switch back to C:S1, game has huge issues and the Performance is the smallest imo, but the ideas are great and i already had lots of fun with it
