They did add some nice stuff in the DLCs, the networking and parks were probably the best if you had me at gunpoint for a quick opinion. It's just for fun, and that's most of the gripes all Simcity fans have. Very cool, but other than a few tourists in towns.

The window dressing in C:S is cool and all but you get about 20h in, place all the exp pack stuff and realise you've basically won and it's pointless to play til another 6mo-1yr til the itch comes again. I want all the civil banalities to tweak dammit because we need more money in the mayor's office.

Then the sims get mad they prefer the orange glow of the old lights XD. Fuckin.cheap lightbulbs in street lamps vs LED. I wanna underfund the roads, have sims mad at me and have real issues. I've spent countless hours trying to make rundown cities and other thematic things in C:S but it's all just window dressing. Still, C:S is nowhere as awesome as the nitty gritty stuff you could do in SC4. I'm the same with emulation 1 hour of 'heh' and back in the box it goes, so to speak. I find it hard to play older games and the loops to get it working right on modern systems generally aren't worth disturbing the nostalgic memories. I tried giving it a go in 2022 but ehhh times have moved on. I was a bit older so I understood the actual simulation of things a bit better. SC3000 was cool, 'Tree stuck in cat, firefighters baffled' has stuck with me all these years and I bring it up whenever a news related headline joke is made in conversation.Ĥ was cool, despite it running like shit. I still think SC2000 had the best disasters, I loved the flooding. I had no idea how it worked, and It used to piss me off in school when kids would just demolish shit.Įven starting a fire on an empty city, really? At least load a city lol. Grew up with SC2000 after seeing it on the school computer in like 98/99 and got my parents to buy it from a WH Smith in the UK(I know right).
