Initial ObservationsĬontrary to what I have read, Project Highrise in my opinion is not much like the old 1990’s Sim Tower. I purchased this game as a bundle on a Steam sale which included the available DLC and the base game Project Highrise. This review is for Project Highrise plus the available DLC (Las Vegas, Miami Malls and Tokyo Towers). Watch Audacity movie, it could change your life If you have had similar feelings or frustrations with Cities Skylines, let me know in the comments. Sure I’m probably in the minority about how I feel about Cities Skylines but at least I feel better telling you. I would love to have access to all the building styles from Simcity 5 (2013) and Simcity 4 and I would be much happier with Cities Skylines.

The game has been out for many years now but the anti aliasing and edges of bridges and buildings still haven’t been smoothed out. Secondly, the vanilla anti aliasing is bad in Cities Skylines. Anti Aliasing and atmospheric irritations And you won’t find many bright pink houses with a blue or black roof where I live. Oftentimes the colors simply don’t even work well together such as white with a dark moss colored green roof. Generally the color palette in my opinion is extreme with many being drab and depressing or unnatural pink, bright green, orange, blue or some similar variation. For example, I believe most default buildings in Cities Skylines are ugly or just plain unrealistic. In City Skylines, sometimes the mods are still not enough to “fix” the game’s “look” or there isn’t one that will do what you really want. The maps where just too small.) Mods not always enough (By the way, Simcity 5 was good without mods. I like Cities Skylines and I play Cities Skylines (over 300 hours on steam)….but I only play it with mods and that brings up one of my biggest problems or frustrations with the game.
