Comment on I think Sims is a dead franchise now
qevlarr@lemmy.world 1 month agoI wouldn’t know, I’m a filthy casual. Parkitect never did it for me, but Planet Coaster did. The point is nobody’s making a new Rollercoaster Tycoon under that name, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t worthy successors from competitors. Cities Skylines is a better example, I remember how much Sim City sucked, then CitiesXL flopped, but Cities Skylines knocked it out of the park

Skylines is ok, it never clicked for me, consider it more of a city painter than a management game… That plus Paradox’ DLC policy made the game quite unattractive to me rather quickly. And it was very car-centric.
Unfortunately, I’m unaware of a serious contender.
