The launch of the new Beach Properties DLC for Cities: Skylines 2 has sparked a significant wave of discontent within its player community. Despite eager anticipation for fresh content, many gamers are left disheartened as they delve into the first DLC for Cities: Skylines 2.
Initially released in October, the sequel fell short of expectations and disappointed many fans who found it lacking when compared to the original Cities: Skylines. One significant problem that upset many was the lack of an editor tool at launch. The CEO of developer Colossal Order, Mariina Hallikainen, acknowledged these difficulties and even expressed regret for the lack of modding support, a feature that was essential to the original title's long-lasting appeal. She said the team intended to release the game completely polished, but as the deadline drew near, they were compelled to prioritize performance fixes.

While the response from Colossal Order remains uncertain, it's noteworthy that earlier this year the company's CEO addressed toxicity within the Cities: Skylines 2 community, cautioning against its potential to harm the game.
Despite these challenges, the introduction of modding tools is undoubtedly welcome news for the many fans who have been waiting for this feature. On the other hand, for those in search of a new type of city-building adventure, Bulwark: Falconeer Chronicles could provide an alternative to Cities: Skylines 2. This game puts players at the helm of an airship with responsibilities that involve putting together their own fortified structure in a world plagued by war and abandonment.
