So, "SimCity Planner"? I like it. Personally, I'd love a "SimCity Manager" that was ran from a local government perspective, rather than a "God Hand" one. You

  Master of Orion 3 tried to "SimCity Manager" approach: the result was one of the least enjoyable games of all time.

    Which is a shame because Master of Orion 2 was amazing.

    That's... Unfortunate. But hey, I'll give it a shot. Maybe I was the person they made it for; thanks!

  Hm, no, that honestly sounds boring, too. Basically, all I would want is the same old Sim City approach but with more flexibility. I do think Sim City gets the basics right. The problem with that is that it complicates the game. Games like Sim City are complicated as is, if you also add fundamentally different ways to build the basic infrastructure (including ways to mix and match) you are in danger of creating a game few will want to play. That’s why streets are the basic building block.

    I agree with you; I'd definitely like to no only see SimCity offer a wider variety of basic tools to build upon. But I also think the ability to modify rules (say, in mods) would offer replay value and niches for all. So, let's hope they embrace mods. We all get what we want!
