Time to dust off the tools, and see if what we learnt from CS1 can apply to CS2
It has been a very long time but I am finally back and as RUSTY AS EVER (so do not comment on the big black box to the right of your screen please).
Cities Skylines 2 is finally out and after time away I slowly delve back into all things Planning with a decent splash of Cities Skylines to help me along the way. Initial thoughts, a reminder of where CS1 was at 8 years ago and how far it came, what CS2 might be able to offer, and of course our first look and my very first CS2 city – Neo South Auckland.
Note: I am aware of big black box, resolution and capture will be better matched next video. Game music loud over my voice: combination of needing to drop audio and also me speaking louder into the mic.
