Macroeconomics? In my Paradox game? Yes please!

(ghost)bustin' makes me feel good!

Before playing the game I simply couldn't understand Daisuke's vision. Before playing I was a fool who knew nothing. Now every time I go for a drive and see a billboard saying "Where are you going? Heaven or Hell?" I immediately have to yell "LET'S ROCK!" at the top of my lungs. After playing the game, Daisuke's vision has never been more clear to me. Sometimes with new updates being proposed I question Daiske's vision, but am then proved completely and utterly wrong. I saw a dolphin at the beach the other day and immediately thought, "TOTSUGEKI!". It is never ending and Daisuke has truly proven his dream to myself, and many others.

This game is absolutely wonderful, and I have already sunken countless hours into the game despite it being released only yesterday. It feels much more realistic than the first game by a large amount. If I love the game so much you may be wondering, why do I give it a negative review? If you have been anywhere on the internet looking at this game, chances are you have encountered a few posts about the performance issues on the game. You may be thinking, "Oh thats fine I don't mind not having the best frames on a city building game". It isn't just the frames that are bad. My PC is on the upper end of performance compared to most of my peers. I have an i9 i12900H, RTX 3060, and a reasonable 16gb of memory. I also play this game on the lowest possible graphics setting. As I am playing this game, my device routinely heats up to about 88*C, uses 96% of its GPU, uses about 60% of my memory, and about 50% of my CPU. Keep in mind this is with *only* Cities: Skylines II open on the lowest possible graphics setting. I get around 20 frames per second but any time I want to move up the graphics setting to say, the low option, the game proceeds to crash, and because I have forgotten to enable autosave twice in a row, I have lost about 8 hours of progress ingame. This game is phenominal and has so much potential, but the performance issues are way too much to overlook. I do await the reasonable performance DLC Paradox.

World of Warships started out as a wonderful game but recently it has lost a lot of it's appeal. In the beginning the game seemed to care about the community, but recently they seem to be bypassing the community entirely and rather than listening to the community for feedback. Recently they have been pushing loot-boxes (digital gambling) on children which the game is rated for T for teen. Basically they have been pushing gambling on children (which is illegal) and have been basically milking their community for their money and trying to make the game unplayable or very difficult to play without spending money. War Gaming does not seem to care about the player base at all and is willing to act like nothing is wrong and when they are pointed out on something they give the community free stuff and expect it to go away. This really needs to stop. The game is no longer fun to play and it's frustrating when a game doesn't care about their player base in the slightest.

This game is very enjoyable and lets you be very creative by letting you build what you want and making mods very easy to install. The game does have some purchasable DLCs but with how many mods there are, you can find some to make your gaming experience more enjoyable. The game already comes with a few maps, however it also lets you build your own if you so choose. Overall, this game is very enjoyable and I would recommend it to anyone who likes being creative.
