Can't wait to change my rating in a couple years, but for now the game is extremely buggy, barely runs even with the lowest settings on my laptop that had no issues with CS1.. The game lacks content, is not fun on high-end pc & consoles, and literally unplayable on lower-end computers in this state.
For such a community driven game, all Cities Skylines II does is disable those who wants to play it but can't due to performance issues, demotivate modders & asset makers to build upon a buggy mess, and alienate new players with an experience that is simply worse than the first game.
That and also some poorly thought-out features that feels badly exploited and barely adds to the game's experience. I wouldn't say it's an unfixable game, far from it; but its launch state will definitely impact the game long term for the damage it's doing to the community; It just makes me sad honestly.
