Cities: Skylines won’t let you get away with being a bad mayor

Cities: Skylines video

Hello! I’ve done a video. It’s been a while since I buried Playing With Myself, and the pain has been dulled, so I thought, what the hell. Cities: Skylines is the subject, and the less than stellar management aspects of Cities XXL provides the inspiration. 

I wanted to see how being a bad mayor would affect my city. In the cases of SimCity and Cities XXL, you could coast along, happy as you like, and cities would keep ticking over, regardless of your inability to manage your way out of a paper bag. Cities: Skylines, as you’ll see below, is not so absurdly forgiving.
