I kinda want someone to make this for shits and giggles.

It's a good game though, but needed more time in the oven.

Reading a physical book is a different experience to a digital one and often people collect them as well like anything else.

You can though, Windows just prompts you to extract it if needed and it's all fairly user friendly.

I'm curious, how is the centering of it any less efficient than left aligning it?

PM Albonese just met with Biden and didn't mention it at all so yeah.

Saying they were aiming for 30 FPS was a mistake I think. When you play Skylines you want to admire the whole thing functioning especially if you have a decent PC and in 2023 30 FPS is just not acceptable. This is what you get however for making a complex simulation in Unity rather than actually making it from scratch like it should be.

That said, I am getting 30 FPS on a 100k pop map and it is playable once you get used to the occasional jerkiness of it. On my now 8k pop map I'm getting 60-90 FPS after following some guides I've seen online about tweaking some settings.

I hope they do eventually optimise this game better but from everything I've seen in other Unity games that suffer similar problems its going to be a long road to treak.

I loaded up the 100k city and it was playable after following the various guides out there for me. It reminded me a bit of how Dwarf Fortress used to slow down and stutter when you had a lot of dwarfs running around.

That said, they should have kept it in the oven until sometime in 2024. Besides performance improvements there are a few rough edges especially Chirper and in the simulation itself that need more work. One example is civs complaining about healthcare excessively until you unlock the upgrade for the full hospital and build one. Also some of the new tools like the road one and the pipe system need more polish as they can be unintuitive and frustrating to use at times.

It's ultimately not a bad game it just shouldn't be released yet. They should have gone the early access route because that's how it feels at the moment.

I have a 3080 so I should be alright and watching a few streams it seems playable too. Might utilize the two hour refund period and see.

I am so down for a sequel of this game and while it looks good the only thing making me hesitate are the performance issues. I'm tempted to just play the first one more and even pick up a DLC I want for that instead of putting the cash to this.
