Ahead of the city builder’s release on October 24, the devs want to “manage expectations on performance.”
Yeah thanks for the heads up, I’ll buy it in a year after release, when it’s patched, for 50% discount on a steam sale. Or maybe in two years foe that botched launch apology hit discount of 70%.
And has 3 DLCs
Yes but the expansions for basic features will still total several hundred.
Yeah but it’s Paradox. The only DLC you really need are the 5 or so that actually have a positive steam rating.
Dlc or performance fix first, place your bets
I’m more worried about it being a traffic simulator more than a city builder like the first one without any expansions. I would like to design a city I want to live in. It’s good to be honest about performance at least.
I love the first one so much that I’ll buy this thing regardless so I don’t really care if it sucks at launch or not I’m going to enjoy it for a number of years
Usually that means: We didn’t hire enough devs for optimization, didn’t allocate enough time for it and prioritized marketing.
Their marketing has been awful though. They had a great build up with all the deep dive videos… Then nothing for a month?!?
I originally thought it was going to come out a month ago, just after the end of the videos, then was shocked to find out it was still a month away.
I guess they wanted some time so they could address any feedback they got?
true, but that doesn’t mean it was cheap.
