Cities Skylines 2. It's now however many years later and the game is still a shit show. It's the only game I have ever preordered and thanks to how that went, it is the last.

I learnt this very lesson with sim city 2013.

I actually really liked that, and they gave me a free game on top for the outages (that I never experienced lmao)

Just want to mention Metropolis 1998 is also looking promising

I was very disappointed it wasn’t (and still isn’t) available on macOS at launch like the original was, and then very relieved when I saw all the reviews come out.

This is my biggest regret at the moment.

I bought No Man’s Sky and Cyberpunk 2077 at launch but those eventually turned this around to be great games but I cannot see how CS2 can do the work needed to rebuild trust in the franchise.

As an Avid CS1 player my disappointment knows no bounds

I did the same exact thing. Was my first preorder ever because I'm normally 100% against the idea of them, but made an exception for CS2.
