>So mechanically your cities are car centric, which isn't qui the cities I'd like to build. It's a city builder, not a fantasy sandbox. You are basically complaining that you can't build a machine gun before you build a musket in a gun making game and that you hate the smell of musket powder. It may shock you to realise just how much infrastructure goes into growing a city. Maybe put your emotion down for a little while...

No I'm complaining that a city builder mainly restricts to one kind of city: the north American city with skyscrapers in the center, a road network (that may or may not look like a grid) and suburbs. You might respond so vehemently to my comment because you've never experienced anything else than a car centric city? In which case I can only encourage you to visit other places. What's for sure is we've both moved from constructive criticism to criticising each other, which isn't a good sign. So I'm sorry if I seem to have attacked your personal beliefs, maybe it's worth questioning why these have pushed you to respond with such disdain for something as trivial as an urbanism question and a video game.

  >You might respond so vehemently to my comment because you've never experienced anything else than a car centric city? No, my comment was devoid of emotion. My experiences are not in car centric cities but public transport centric cities. Not that it matters. >What's for sure is we've both moved from constructive criticism to criticising each other You have, I have not. You keep going on about personal things for some reason. Like I said, definitely put your emotion down next time... Whether you like it or not, a city is not born how you think it is born. Feel free to complain about the smell of musket powder ignition, that's not for me to tell you not to. I am just pointing out that it's quite disconnected from reality even if it is a great fuzzy feeling for you.
