I think there's ample market for a good "indie" city sim. Simple, stylized graphics with a focus on the transportation network and the ability to model real-world cities in the game. And as much moddability as possible.
SimCity 4 was sometimes criticized for being too difficult and complicated, and what few city sims we've had since SC4 -- and that may include the new Sim City -- tried to appeal to a broader audience, but they have all done so at the cost of alienating the more "hard core" sim fans. They're all still playing a heavily modified SC4, but the game is showing its age.
- yellowbkpk 14y agoHave you played OpenTTD? http://www.openttd.org/en/ http://www.openttd.org/en/ It focuses on transit, but it's an excellent game and very open ended.
