Played this version for a couple of times already with my friend before this and i really must say to myself, the town layout really does kinds of looks like from Sims freeplay XD!
Unpopular opinion i actually love this game and had tons of hours of fun with it.
Cities Skylines is horribly optimized and doesn't really have any charm. SimCity at least runs and has that classic Sims charm. In optimal conditions, yeah Cities Skylines is the superior, bigger game, but i've had way less issues playing SimCity than CS.
you're right, empty and content lacking is very Sims
Finally someone who shares my opinion! I loved this Sim City game, I've spent many hours playing when it released. The only thing that really ruined it was the small map. You just couldn't move past a certain point due to the limited space. Everything else was great tho, much better than Skylines imo. I always get roasted saying this but for me Skylines has no charme whatsoever. Worse graphics, less possibilities and options for many things and just generally less vibrant :/
Cities Skylines is great but you will need a good gaming pc to play it
I like the look and customization of sim city but like the depth and size of city skylines. I'll stick to city skylines because what I don't like can easily be fixed with mods on steam.
@@fanvonvielem773 i love all the moneymaking schemes you can play with but i agree the city size was ridiculous
I always wished they would have merged SimCity and The Sims. Like, take the city builder tools from SimCity to let us create/customize our own Sims worlds (especially the roadways, add in shopping districts, etc.) and auto-populate with some default buildings that we could then zoom in and customize with The Sims building tools. I always thought that would have been awesome.
It would require a super computer to simulate all of this in a single game.
@@augusto7681 No, it wouldn't. Just like you access CAS through a loading screen, you could access the 'world designer' through another loading screen. Wouldn't you want to build/design your own neighborhoods?
@@Kleineganz Yes, customize a the sims world. I understood build a simcity world and live there as a sim. I understood as combine the gameplay of both games.
@@augusto7681 Yes, and it would not require a "supercomputer" to include all that in a game.
@@Kleineganz I already saw a mod that let you create a new neighborhood. But would be great to have an official way to do that.
I honestly don't think it's too bad. Cities Skylines doesn't run smoothly on my PC so it's my only option
Same no matter how powerful of a pc i play with, it's always laggy and VERY prone to crashing.
@@mygetawayart games depend on engine and optimization and cities skylines is not well optimized
Here's the thing, I see Cities Skylines as much more of a city builder and NOT a city simulation game. I really prefer the simulation in SimCity, even if it translates into smaller maps.
Cities Skylines is a city simulation game. Death of citizens is even a thing to have to deal with, and pity the player who doesn't have a good system in place to deal with used water.
I don't expect it to happen, but I'd like to see The Sims 5 incorporate features of SimCity as a sort of hybrid. One thing TS4 has lacked from day one is world building- 8 years on and we still can't even add trees or lots to the existing worlds. I'd like to see more world customisation in TS5- and natural disasters! Imagine Eliza Pancakes being melted by a volcano 👀
Actually the sims do commute between cities as long as they are connected. They can connect via municipal bus, ferry or airplane. I do like that feature but I still wish the cities were bigger.
I adore this channel like im sorry but the way i will literally watch anything this man puts out
Girl sameeee
Ah yes the game with the perfect set of growables, 27 sets to be exact. From Trailer homes, Brownstones, Tiny cheap Motels and NYC 19th century Hotels to American 4-over-ones to Art Deco Commercial Towers all the way to Prefab Tenements this games really has the best set of buildings in the modern City Sims sphere. Its so much easier to create an aesthetically and unique pleasing City in this compared to Skylines. This video really doesnt fo it justice to how good it can be. (Skystormes and Dr. Proofs collective over twohundred part LPs showcase the high and lows of the game respectivley. If you have a month of free time I highly recommend them both [Though I reccomend to skip the first 9 episodes of DPs LP because thats just him learning the game before the time skip if you dont care about Paskal himself and his character])
what are you talking about
@@megamega791 [Artistic Constitution; Medium]: Catastrophic Failure
The best SimCity game, in my opinion, is SimCity 4. It had regions that you customized the land and then built various sizes of cities and could share power, etc with cities. Also you could moves sims in from The Sims game and they’d tell you about their lives in the city/region you built. This SimCity game does have regions and shares resources (you don’t have to build a school in each city, they’ll commute to whichever one in the region has a school, same with workplaces and shopping....you can literally build a city that’s just residential and they’ll commute), but you can’t move sims in...although they do share info if you click on them. Cities Skylines does this through the little bird app where you hear from the citizens. The reason this version of SimCity did so poorly wasn’t the small city building space or simplified menus (which was done because it was felt the games had become too complex to gain new players). It did so poorly because originally you could ONLY play it online and you could ONLY play in one city spot and then other online players built in the others in the region. That’s all fine and well if everyone is playing at the same time, but when you’re not online together then it makes growing and developing your city a slow process. The fact is most people who play games like The Sims, SimCity, Cities Skykines, etc play them by themselves in their own time and enjoy being creative. Imagine your hobby is painting, but you can only advance your painting when others also painting. You can’t do much by yourself. You’d get to where you’d likely not paint very often and go off to do something else. That’s what SimCity players did. Whenever I couldn’t do much with this game I either went and played an older version of SimCity, player some other video game, or went and did something else (read a book, write, play music, listen to music, draw, watch a movie or tv show, etc). There are certainly things about the game I like. And I still own it and now that you can play it without an online connection and don’t have to have others playing in the region to do anything, it’s a fun game for what it is. I still play it occasionally whenever I am not wanting to do anything as advanced as Cities Skylines or whenever I just want to play around with features that are in the game that don’t really exist in Cities Skylines. I had a boyfriend a few years ago who had it on his computer and one of the things we’d do when spending time together was work on individual cities in a region and have them interconnect. It was a lot more fun than the online game feature ever was because we could literally jump between our various cities and each do something to better the region and work on regional projects together in real time rather than like back when it was online only and you might start sending stuff to the regional project and be the only one. The downsides to the game all stem from the fact that the game was designed around being an online only game...much like The Sims 4 was originally going to be as well. Thankfully this version of SimCity showed why making all genres of video games as online games isn’t a good idea and they changed course with The Sims 4 where they could. Do I wish they’d bring the SimCity franchise back? Yes! It’s quirky like The Sims and in some cases is where some references in The Sims comes from (Malcolm Landgraab began in SimCity 3000 and Landgraab as a name was first used in SimCity 2000 for some companies names of buuldings). I love Cities Slylines, don’t get me wrong, but I wouldn’t mind having SimCity back as well. They’re both very different city building games and I don’t think they’d have to compete against each other in any major ways. I’d happily play them both just like I play lots of other games that are similar to each other due to their genres.
The megatowers were this version’s take on SimCity 2000’s arcologies. In essence they’re cities in a building.
I think its funny that you mentioned The Wall and associated it with Dubai, UAE when it’s actually being built by Saudi Arabia. I guess it goes to show that Dubai has a reputation for doing such kinds of projects (whether that’s a good or bad thing to have a reputation for).
Great quick review video!
I must have been doing something wrong because my sims would never commute. I always had to build schools and all that in every small square.
The fact that it had to be played on line only or it wouldn’t work was what destroyed Sims City. Glitches and bugs could be worked out but from day one this games servers couldn’t support many players at once. So people literally bought a game that didn’t function.
Shaniceland😂😂😂. The icon. The legend. Of course a town would be named after her!
City Skylines is definitely my personal go to, it’s very in depth
I loved this game because city specialization was so fun to do. Building a processor city or a tourist city and having them work together in the same region was and is so much fun. Modular buildings and managing your finances and growth was fun when you got it right as oppossd to just plopping new buildings all over the place.
They planned on expanding on city borders and if Maxis wasn't shut down I wonder what kind of DLC they could have come up with for this game. EA in fact pushed Maxis to have an online requirement. Killed the game. Them shut them down. It was really sad...
Omg this made me so nostalgic for SimCity. I haven’t played it in at least five years, and it definitely is very different from Cities Skylines. I feel like Cities is much more detailed, but that also makes it very tedious at times, whereas SimCity is much more of a casual, fun game from my perspective, and I do love the disasters 😂
U know. . . i enjoy simcity way more than the sims 4 at this point. the game never gives me any running issues and it doesnt stress me out as much as the sims4 does. ugh.
May I suggest you play Simcity 4 or Simcity 3000. They look much better and more fun!
No- No not really? I dont get how you can go back to 2d City Sims long term after having had the experience of playing SC13/Skylines...
@@aturchomicz821 Isometric views aside, the game is much more fun as you have a lot of control over how the city runs and strategy comes into play. Raise taxes? Upgrade roads? Build facilities? Any decisions will have both positive and negative effect on the city.
I always loved in Simcity 3000 how citizens would approach you, and ask for certain actions or ordinances to be approved or removed. The teens would get so mad at me, for declining to end the curfew for teens. Lol
SimCity 4 is bigger scale than Cities Skylines.
6:36 Tourism in Detroit be like.
Weird thing to realize: it’s almost been the same amount of time between the release of simcity 5 and now and the time between simcity 4 and 5
They can commute between cities. I usually have a highschool and elemetary in each city but only put like 2 or 3 unis.
This game isnt bad at all the only bad thing is the cities are too small
exactly this
also the lack of terraforming disappoints me
played both and it's funny i got more hook playing sim city than city skylines. i find city skylines to be easy and relaxing and got bored, while simcity for me was more complicated. plus i really like the different concept on taking different path in every city, like making it more evil dystopian type, by completing quest for evil criminals. and for my personal opinion you need to carefully manage city,, you cannot expand aggressively or you will pay even with taking small decision.
Just as you say it’s more child friendly a notification at the top of your screen says murderer on the loose are your police prepared 😂
Watching you play old games is my favorite coping skill
this game is actually really fun when you get into it, my favorite was building a gambling tourist city
I don't think I'd say exactly child friendly. The picture of the zombie in zombie attack breaking news literally gave me one of the biggest scare of my life. And that only happens when it happens randomly. So yeah, when it happened again randomly, I was so scared I lost my feeling in my leg for a moment. Jeez...
But even then, I somehow prefer this. Sometimes I go many days playing this, relaxing as I do other things. I don't know if it is nostalgia or what...
I dont think its is child friendly neither. The gameplay is hard if you try to please the sims and increase your approval. There is so many things we can do wrong, if you dont consider wind direction the industry can a bring polution to the city and make people die what then make people leave the city.
I own three versions of SimCity, including the latest one with all the add-ons. Yes, I WAS one of those that was online at midnight when it was put online live (bought pre-release) and was witness to it crashing and burning. For our trouble, we got to choose a free game (or did they just give us one). I got Spore. I still enjoy SimCity but miss SimCity 4 ONE WAY STREETS for Godsake. The megatowers are literally sh**. I just gave up and play in sandbox all the time now. I still love the game for when I get sick of Sims 4.
Is it me, or do all of the old sims games have better graphics 🤎don't forget the graphics from sims medieval, they look amazing 🤎
Do you mean better graphics than sims 4 ?
Somebody mentioned SimCity Societies!
I've played this game, for hours. You can trade resources between regions. Interact with the Sims. It's old and fun! Like me.....
What if they’re gonna announce SimCity instead of Sims 5 loo
Cities Skylines just did everything right! I still love old SimCity games, specially 3000 and 4. 2013 and Societies were awful
Imo this game was heavily misunderstood. After 4 games in which you could build giant monstrosities/megalopolis, this is like sc4 but forcing you to develop smaller towns, focusing on how they interact with eachother even more than how sc4 already did. And btw SimCity will always be a series about urban planning and "simulation", cities skylines is 90% aesthetics.
You can place trees
It's buggy, but it's much easier than Cities Skylines.
Where did you download the game?
I see you under every review I look up I like it
Your reviews are the best ❤
I got SimCity with EA Play,but i can not play with it, because it says like "You activated this game on another account" or something like that. Which is strange because i dont have any other account.
This man said the humongous wall in dubai 😂😂😂
Yup when i was Finnish my Tutorial and after minute i forgot the money from Elictricity and Turbine Cause 6k gold and Water tank Is also 6k why?
This game destroyed Sim City and made way for Cities Skylines to take over
Since SimCity 2000 I was always a fanatic city bilder. SimCity 4 Rush Hour was the last good SimCity. This one on the other hand is the proverbial "Fuck EA". Actually, I don't buy anything EA these days. Battlefield 3 was the last game I played.
Looking at this, it doesn't even look that bad. But I've never played Sims City, because I'm not interested in these types of games...
0:28 If you play at least once, you can skip the intro
Honestly I love this game
I secretly really like(d) this game!
I love it lol. It can be super complicated tho lol
I remember playing Sim Towers on... was it DOS or Windows 95?🤔
An basic hotel builder.
I will never forget the hell of co-ordinating side by side passenger elevator shafts & staff elevator shaft to the basements and upwards again🤬
I haven't purchased or played a game from EA since they ruined Sim City in 2013. There are plenty of games to play that don't have EA's tentacles in them. EA eventually ruins everything.
Next time try testing it
The high seas version I played back when this came out(until city skylines came out) was less buggy than this.
Its fun but not for a long time:/
I hate to admit this but, I actually played SimCity 2013 many years ago and actually enjoyed it...
No shame in it, its a cult classic by now
Awesome
OMG ! You make want to play it again ! lol
It works fine for me
Ugh I miss SimCity
Yooo
Very poor review. You are playing it all wrong. Being impatient and plopping everything down is not how it's done. It takes a good amount of time to grow your city correctly. Balancing all parameters along the way. Your use of space is appalling. Wasting a good majority that you are complaining about not having. All that green, unused, wasted space could be filled with thriving industry, commercial or residential. I believe the lack of respect you give this game is your detriment. It has been around longer than you. I first installed it on my Amiga when it was originally released. Evolving along the way, enjoying it for many years to come. Please revisit this game, take your time. I'm sure if you do you'll thoroughly enjoy it. Start with nothing, end up with everything.
its inferior than cities skylines theres no point in losing timeon it.
I don't think it matters if he played by building quickly. It's not like he was intending to go back and play it often, so why would he bother trying to build it up nicely, balance things out, or grow the city, just for a ten minute video? He played differently than you do, that doesn't make his playing style inferior to yours. And maybe unlike you he actually wanted greenspace in and around his city rather than simply having it be an entire industrial or residential hellhole.
Heeeeeey
There's just no comparison to City Skylines. Plain and simple. And the more EA gets into this stuff, the more ridiculous it will become..
first !!!!!
Gey
This was awful to watch. You had like 800 citizens inside badly designed roads and then you are kinda blaming the game when you ran out of money... The whole point in this game is to have multiple cities. I think the name should be Sim Cities. Then people would understand the idea in this game.
I never liked that. I always wanted to play only with one city but that was impossible since sc4 :/
Aha-ha-ha, will best if you start series of video "Idiot Playing Games"
Now try the mobile version... it's even WORSE 😭😭🫣
Bad faith moment🤡
Yup, its heavily invested with microtransaction
the problem with mobile sims and simcity is that these 3 games do not give freedom, they cannot be called sandboxes where you can express yourself
