This team has been making the exact same game for multiple decades. Look at this developer's game history. It is literally the same exact game redeveloped over and over every few years and then they repackage and resell the same DLCs for the new versions. What a con of a game dev.
13 years since Cities in Motion 1 is not multiple decades, and Cities in Motion 1 is in no way the same game as Cities Skylines
So you think they've been making entirely new games for their entire existence? You don't think it's conny at all that literally all they do is make city builders and sell DLCs and then make a new one when interest dries up? Doesn't seem very creative or innovative in my opinion it sounds like pure capitalism. Publisher is a microcosm EA.
That’s not a con, that’s someone perfecting their art.
Oh so Cities II is better than 1 across the board? And the Hobbit movies were better than lotr? I feel like you're being a tad naive.
