Cities Skylines Review

An overly ambitious Sequel that falls flat in its current state

As a religious fan of the city builder genre, I was beyond excited to hear Cities skylines was getting a second game having put almost 1k hours into the first one over many years. That excitement turned to dread on release day and the months following. Seeing just how bad the game runs, not to mention all the missing features from Cities skylines 1. I’m not sure who needs to hear this, but stop rushing game releases… As a fan of your series, I don’t want to write this negative review, but when you put this game out with no bikes, 10fps maps, major game breaking bugs, and a multitude more missing features it makes all the hard work, and great things you improved on meaningless. This game should have been marked "Early Access"

Considerations:

• ❌ Missing many core features

• ❌ Countless bugs

• ❌ UI is clunky and slow at times

• ❌ Performance drops regularly without reason

• ✅ Top tier graphics

Final Verdict:

4 natural disasters out of 10
