^"Walking Simulator"

 

After playing Cities Skylines this weekend (14h in 3 days), I can honestly say that the game is mostly what I thought it would be. The graphics are lovely, I don't know how many times I just put the cam at the street level only to see the dawn of a new day, and runs great (I was surprised by how good it looked and how snappy it felt as I'm far from the recommended specs), and it's easy to pick up if you've played SimCity before.

Because yes, the resemblances to SimCity are many, but it's also true that the game has its own style and twists that give it its own personality and makes you forget the EA game. And the money is only a problem during the very first stages of your city (I didn't build a big city, only 12-13k habitants, yet I managed to get $1million in the bank and an income of more than $15k/week, and that was in my second try).

Of course, there are some things here and there that could be better, like some of the menus (although I'm sure there are mods for that), but this oportunity to try the game has shattered any doubts I could have about getting the game. Now I just hope a Complete Edition launches soon.



Please excuse my bad English.
