Looking at you MKJ. Wondering how is it? I was thinking of getting it but I'm not sure the controls are good?

Controls are fine, although getting intersections to behave can be tricky.
It's a fine sandbox, albeit a little light on actual gameplay. Setting up a successful city is probably easier than it should be. Mind you, I haven't tried it since the release of the Natural Disasters DLC.

It's excellent, control scheme works very well.
Roadmanagment is a bit finnicky but that was always the case.
There's not really a challenge factor tho, it's all very casual. Sure you can completely fuck up but only if you're really trying, otherwise the game just rolls along.
Also a lower price tag than other games.

There are mods that fix the intersection management, if you're willing to sift through the thousands of mods in the Steam Workshop. I had a good bunch of fun for quite a few months with the game, but eventually I broke it by installing too much crap and got overwhelmed.

LOL fuck if I'll ever play a city management game with a controller.

See my first post, it actually translates surprisingly well.

Given the choice between PC and console, why would you ever go with the console version, though? I just figured everyone posting at Q3W has a gaming PC of some sort, though this game isn't particularly demanding if you fiddle with the sliders.
