Or playable framerates.

That's totally expected. Besides, most of the Cities Skylines DLC were shit anyway. I mean building a zoo, seriously?

My experience is the opposite. While there were bad DLCs, most of them were awesome.

I enjoyed adding the new areas / zones to my cities, but the mechanics were dry as fuck and required “cheesing” to unlock all buildings.

I think there was a disconnect between what CO intended CS to be, and what it became. The people playing 8+ years after release want a sandbox where they can create their dream cities, not minuscule goals that made that dream harder.

I’m excited for CS2 because it seems more catered to the sandbox but with better city simulation mechanics, but let’s hope they do something interesting with the DLCs (and fix performance, obviously).

That sounds fun to me considering I liked the original Zoo Tycoon and nothing modern scratches that itch.

Was it at least done well, though? I've never really looked through the DLCs. I figured most of them were just visual content additions like new styled buildings and what not.
