This is the best summary I could come up with:


Only time will tell if community energy can help restore some of the momentum that has been dispersed by the fraught launch of Cities: Skylines 2 (C:S2).

The project of relatively small developer Colossal Order arrived in October 2023 with performance issues and a lack of content compared to its predecessor.

"[W]e can't wait to have the support out there, so we can have the modding community 'fully unleashed,'" Hallikainen said then.

Most non-incensed commenters and reviewers consider the tools themselves to be an upgrade over the prior game's editing suite.

We'll have to see how long it takes assets like Spaghetti Junction, the most popular mod for the original Cities: Skylines, to arrive in C:S2 so that all may experience the municipal engineering regrets of Birmingham, England.

There's also a Deluxe Relax Station that puts 16 new songs and DJ patter on the soundtrack.
