I’ve been playing a ton of Cities Skylines II since its release a week ago. After building a 230k population archipelago I started playing around with the in game cinematic video tools and this is the result.

This is 100% in game footage and effects using the Photo Mode. Recorded using the Microsoft/Xbox Game Bar, only editing was to trim the start and end.

    This was why I favoured console gaming over PC. Having a standardised hardware always meant you don’t have the heart ache of a game not performing well. With the introduction of the Steam Deck hopefully that will become the new baseline for future games.

      Can’t be disappointed by gameplay if you can’t play the game!

      Ah yes, we all know that performance problems on consoles are unheard of. And CS2 runs really badly even on some of the most popular and powerful hardware, so that argument makes no sense here.

        This is the catch 22 of PC gaming. On the one hand you’ve got people complaining that the latest games require high end hardware to run on release day - and simultaneously at the other end of the spectrum people are complaining that supporting low end hardware is dragging a game down?!
