Sadly this DLC isnt very good.

It adds some addiotional gameplay mechanics, suchas Daytime/Nightime and Tourism. Both of which either dont work or have affect on gameplay whatsoever.

Daytime and Nightime is a really interesting concept on paper, introducing Rush Hour, busy roads and busy Commercial during Night. However non of that really works ingame. There is no noticable difference between day and night gameplay wise. So its 95% visual, which looks nice, but isnt enough to justify the purchase.

Tourism is just flat out broken, in a city of 100k+, I get a about 200-300 tousist and my small Tourism speciliazed commercial zone keeps complaining about the fact there are no customers.


Additionally CO has pretty much made no efforts on fixing or improving the base/core of the game, there are lots of non-gamebreaking issues/bugs with the original game which are not being addressed.

On the surface Cities Skylines, (CS:S), looks like a pertty solid game. However after playing this game for a while, it all seems to fall apart. The acclaimed "city management" is pretty much non existant. All you do is plop down a bunch of buildings and services, and thats it. Your citizens seems to be happy all of the time, they dont really get affected by any of the game mechanics, like tax, pollution, etc.
Addiotionally the Traffic AI its CS:S its biggest weakness. When you see that citizens only use 1 lane on a 3 way highway, which ends up in to entire clocked up traffic system. Even if you apply all knowledge to proper road grid building, traffic will always become an issue, they just dont seem to programmed that well. Even when the game has 6 lane roads, traffic seems to use only 2 or 3 out fo the 6 available lanes.
Another example is where the simulation just falls is apart, you can build a University, that is not connected to ANY road of your city, yet it will be used as if it were.

All of this results in CS;S not being a simulation/management game, but instead its a City Painter software and to be quiet honest, as a City Painter Software, its also lacking. The tools that you want/need in order to make it somewhat fun are essentially missing. Modders came to the rescue regarding this issue, providing a lot of tools and modifications which argueably should have been part of the base game.

Performance isnt great either, all looks fine at the start but once your city starts hitting 100k+, performance becomes questionable, with fps ranging from 20-40 on a i7 @4 Ghz, 16GB, and GTX 970.

Mods and assets downloaded from the workshop also decrease performance. Which i guess is downside of relying on mods/assets. Dont get me wrong, I LOVE the work modders and assetcreators do. Its just that it seems Collosal Order seems to "rely" on modders to "fix" their game. As I said before, modders are adding stuff that arguebly should be part of the game itself. Modders can probably not implement features as effecient to the game as CO would be able to do it directly.

When they released After Dark, they managed to add to pile of not working features. The introduction of Tourism looked good, however it soon fell apart when players noticed that the Tourism speciliazation didnt work either. Tourism in cities of 100k+ was pretty much non existant. Did it get fixed? I believe somewhere 6 months after the release of After Dark, when they released their next expansion, a fix was issued.

TL;DR

Cities Skylines looks great on the surface but falls apart on core gameplay mechanics.

Awesome game, defitnely worth the small price!!!!!
