I notices that all the cities were quite small in the trailer. Except that very last one in the last few seconds with the zoom out from car-level which looked very box-arty. I hope the engine scales well.

It looks nice, but I'll wait for information about system improvements before I get too excited. The original really needs several mods for traffic to work correctly.

I used to love this genre but the older I get the more it feels like....work. Am I the only one?

I just hope they intergrate QOL features so you aren't forced to use a ton of mods to be able to build out cities efficiently.

Nah, there's probably a dozen or so people like you.

Will this just include all the dlc from cs1? Aside from the qol mods the community created c:s feels like basically a complete game. I’m interested to know what they’re adding.

This is a paradox published game sooo I’d guess it’ll include some stuff, but it’ll be a cold day in hell before they release a game with everything included

Welcome to old age. Back in the day games that I could sink hundreds of hours into were a steal. Today I won't even touch them, because who the hell has the time?

If I were to theorize, it's because you try to min / max it and build the most efficient city. I'm guilty of that too, building everything in neat grids and then I got bored.

But look up some designs; people build chaos, people build things that look good or quirky instead of what works the best. The style you play at determines how much fun you have with it. For some, that's doing it organized and efficient, for others, it's whatever makes them the happiest.
