    No, because i was having fun with it and i think that with some fixes and addons it could've been great.

    Just wanted to know if i'm alone in this

    It looked pretty for a while, but it only took a little time to realise how limited that game is. It's baby's first Sim City. You can enjoy it for a little while, but there is basicly no reason to choose SC2013 over SC4 in the long run.

    Also, the devs/publishers were lying piece of shits during the marketing, trying to push down the always online requirements on our throat, when the game didn't benefit at all from being always online. "but but but, the game simulation is so advanced, the cloud computing is doing all the work" FUCK YOU!

    worst are the gaming journos who didn't smell and called out on the bullshit.
    it doesn't need much technical knowledge, just a pinch of common sense.

    Don't you believe that if maxis didn't go under EA it could be something bigger and better? I think that the base was good

    The benefit of Sim City 2013 is that it killed the franchise and allowed that Cities XL game to take its place.

    You mean Cities Skyline (Cities XL is worse than Simcity 2013).

    And Cities Skyline has good gamplay, nice community but crap art, like anonym as fuck

    xxl is worse than sc2013. xl is fine, albeit old and badly optimized.

    Isn't the optimal city design in Nu-sim city a map wide spiral with only one road?

    You have been browsing a cached copy of the Internet from 10 years ago. The modem bus just rolled back to your ebola-stricken village, but looks like it's turning around real fast. But not before I tell you about the important parts. This phrase that you consider fresh and new, has been used by Bethtards since 2008. In other news, Lady GaCARRIER LOST
