Cities: Skylines 2 is stretching the patience of fans further than ever, but there's still hope for "a No Man's Sky redemption arc"

    I love that the game is such a CPU hogging mess that LTT used it to test over clocking a brand new AMD thread ripper and the game still ran like garbage even on one of the fastest and most multithreaded CPUs that exist.

    I love Cities Skylines but whatever is happening in 2 is a three alarm fire and needs to be fixed.

      Not sure why LTT or anyone else would have thought that would even help considering simulation games like that rely heavily on single core performance.

        I mean… Watch the video? It uses 64 fucking cores when available. It’s a heavily multithreaded game.

          CS2 uses multiple cores for… something, but it’s a Unity game and there’s only so much you can do to avoid dependence on a main thread. Your single core perforemance is still going to be a limiting factor.
